The Best Places for Helicopter Tours

A helicopter tour can be a great way to make your trip something to remember so they are worth considering no matter where you go. There are of course some places that are more popular for helicopter trips than others this list will provide our top five destinations. Of course with so many great places to take a helicopter tour there are plenty of destinations that did not make our top five.

  1. The best place for a helicopter tour is Hawaii. This is largely because of the spectacular scenery that the state has to offer. Blue Hawaiian Helicopters is one of the top helicopter tour providers and they can help you to plan the perfect trip when you get to the islands.
  2. Saying that Hawaii is the top destination as it can be a bit misleading there are actually dozens of different places that you can take a tour in Hawaii so you will need to sort out which is the best option. Take a look at the Tours Blue Hawaiian Helicopter provides so that you can get a good idea of the options that are available
  3. The next best place to take a helicopter tour is the Grand Canyon. There is only one reason that people go to the Grand Canyon and that is to see the wonder of nature. If you are going to make the trip you might as well make sure that you get the best view possible and that is from the air. A helicopter tour of the canyon is well worth it.
  4. Victoria Falls in Africa are the next trip to make our list. The world's largest waterfall is another of those wonders of nature that people will make the trip just to see. One of the challenges of seeing a sight like falls however is that the are so big it is hard to take it all in from the ground. This is why so many people prefer to do it from the air.
  5. Princeton New Jersey is the fourth destination to make the list. This may not seem like the most obvious of choices but the fact is that there is a lot to see. Obviously most people will want to see the university as part of the tour. More importantly however is that Princeton is only a short helicopter ride from both New York and Philadelphia both of which can offer some spectacular cityscapes.
  6. The last destination on our list is Iceland. Iceland is home to more active volcanoes than just about any other place in the world. Combine this with the glaciers and the mountains and it is a destination that really needs to be seen from the air. Iceland is similar to Hawaii in that there are lots of different options for trips so you will need to really think about what you want to see.
