Overview

This is a private helicopter flight over Rio de Janeiro designed for up to four passengers. The flight lasts about 12 to 13 minutes and provides aerial views of the city’s main landmarks. Passengers fly over the Santuario Cristo Redentor, one of the seven modern wonders, to see the statue from above. The route also includes flying along Copacabana Beach, known for its 4-kilometer stretch of clear sand and major events like New Year's Eve celebrations, followed by a pass over Ipanema Beach, a popular spot for locals especially in the late afternoon. The flight continues over Praia Vermelha, a quieter beach located at the base of Sugarloaf Mountain, near the Mureta da Urca snack area. The helicopter then flies over Sugarloaf Mountain itself, known for its iconic views, and finally crosses Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon, a calm area used for sports and leisure. A flight voucher is included to confirm the booking. Food and drinks are not provided, and the price of the Bondinho cable car at Heliponto Urca is not included.
