Santorini: 30-min Private Helicopter Sightseeing Flight
About this tour
Soar above the picturesque landscapes of Santorini and the surrounding sea on an unforgettable helicopter trip over the island. Spot the volcanic formations of the caldera and the charming, white-washed villages like Fira and Oia on a thrilling ride over the Aegean gem. The experience of taking off in a helicopter is like no other. As you rise vertically, the ground shrinks away and you lift off into the blue skies. Head out over the azure waters of the Aegean Sea toward Santorini's half-submerged caldera. Learn about the fascinating geological history of this former island, which collapsed following an ancient eruption, and catch sight of the nearby active volcano—Nea Kameni.

Helicopter tours in Santorini, Greece
Santorini's whitewashed villages perched on the caldera's edge are one of the most photographed views in Greece, and a helicopter tour takes in the full curve of the volcanic bay at once.
When's the best time to fly?
April to June and September to October bring mild weather and fewer crowds than peak summer. July to August can bring strong Meltemi winds that occasionally affect flight schedules.
What should I bring?
Light clothing and sunglasses, since the sun reflecting off the white buildings and water is bright even on a mild day.
What if the weather doesn't cooperate?
Like most operators, tours in Santorini have standard weight and balance limits (you may be asked your weight when booking or checking in), and pilots will delay or reschedule rather than fly in unsafe wind, low visibility, or storms. Booking a tour with free cancellation means a weather delay won't cost you anything.
