The Iconic Tour is a 17-minute helicopter flight that is our most popular tour. It starts at Atlantis, The Palm and covers the Palm Jumeirah, the Burj Al Arab and the Dubai coastline.
Where it differs from the shorter flights is the downtown portion: you continue to Downtown Dubai and the Burj Khalifa, and the route also takes in the upcoming Lagoon project.
Seats are sold individually, with up to five passengers on board. Children must be at least five, and infants and pets are not allowed.
If you want even more, the 25-minute City Circuit crosses the Gulf and covers Dubai Creek and Dubai Marina.
Hotel pickup and drop-off are available on request, and routes can change because of air traffic or weather.
Book with the form on this page or on WhatsApp, and our team will confirm your pickup details afterwards. Our cancellation schedule applies to any changes, and anything not shown in the inclusions is an extra.
