Description
Dubai is a world of preposterous luxury. Manmade islands, magnificent hotels, and bejeweled sport cars; everywhere you look you’ll be boggled by the wealth on display. Your inner big-spender can’t help but want a piece of the action. But if you can’t afford to buy a gold-plated helicopter, you can still sample some of that up-and-above it all with this helicopter flight!From the manmade island of Atlantis, The Palm, the pilot will take you to the highest skyscraper in the world: the one and only Burj Khalifa. You’ll fly so close that you’ll have the feeling you can reach out and touch it. Don’t though.
The richness of this oil-soaked city becomes even more apparent from above. See the enormous Aquaventure Waterpark, a bunch of shiny skyscrapers, and the white beaches of the Jumeirah Hotel lapped at by turquoise oceans…
15-minute flight
The 15-minute flight gives you a great overview of Dubai’s must-sees. Plus it’s an incredibly cool experience, and they say if you want to be happy, spend your money on experiences not things. That’s a lesson that not many people take away from the City of Gold.
25-minute flight
With the 25 minutes helicopter flight you will circle above the city that keeps churning out record-breaking skyscrapers (there are already plans to build another skyscraper taller than the Burj Khalifa!). The Palm Islands, the World Islands, the chic Burj al Arab and more…
