Your immersive experience begins the moment you meet your tour guide at the ship. From here you’ll driven by air-conditioned minibus to the helicopter pad just 7 minutes away from St. John’s. Once at the heliport, you will be briefed on your flight before beginning your adventure.
As you start this breathtaking 25-minute tour, you’ll ascend over Antigua's fabulous beaches and see the entire circumference of the island, which includes over 100 miles of shoreline. Every beach, hotel, reef, and historic fortification is along the route, complete with the live narration of the pilot.
You'll skim the crystal-clear waters of Antigua's West Coast, glide over the extraordinary Cades Reef and past Rendezvous Bay. Fly above the superyachts anchored at Falmouth Harbor before soaring over historic English Harbor and Shirley Heights Lookout. Some highlights of this tour include St. John’s, English Harbor, Nelson’s Dockyard, Shirley Heights, Jolly Harbor, Cades Reef, Fort James, Pillars of Hercules, Half Moon Bay, Devil’s Bridge, Hell’s Gate, Jumby Bay, Prickly Pear Island, and Dickenson Bay. This will truly be a day to remember.
Please note: You will be met at the pier by your tour representative and driven to the heliport just 7 minutes away. All aircraft are climate-controlled with air-conditioning in the cabins. Total flight time is around 25 minutes. Every seat has excellent visibility, with raised, stadium-style seating, meaning there are no rear-facing seats or partitions to block your view. There is a weight restriction of 280 lbs. per person and a height restriction of 7 feet. There is also a combined restriction of 1075 lbs. for all 6 passengers on the helicopter. Passengers are provided with BOSE noise-cancelling headsets for intercom communication with the pilot and one another. As with other airlines, guests under 2 years of age may sit on their parent or guardian's lap during the flight at no charge. Passengers are required to travel with a government issued photo ID.
