Description

Your LivTours’ Helicopter Tour Around Rome starts at your accommodation in Rome where you will be met by a chauffeur who will take you in a luxury climate-controlled vehicle to the Urbe Airport of Rome to go on one of the most exciting tours of your life. Upon arrival at the airport, you will be met by the welcoming airport staff as well as your LivTours private guide who will take to the air with you for the entire journey. The licensed pilot and helicopter crew will focus on showing you as much of Rome as possible, while your private guide focuses on sharing with you the treasures of Rome!

This adrenaline filled tour is filled with beauty and excitement every single minute and is sure to make you fall in love with the city – that is if you haven’t already! During your tour, depending on the amount of time you have booked, weather conditions and weight restrictions, you will be able to see the city from above and perhaps some of the surrounding areas. The city of Rome is a designated no fly zone, so no aircraft is permitted to fly directly over the center, but luckily the Eternal City has a small footprint and by hovering on the sidelines you get an absolutely clear, aerial view of all the major sites you have come to see.

Everyone is equipped with headphones and a microphone so you can hear your guide well and communicate easily, just like a tour on the ground! Feel free to pepper your guide with questions and let your private tour guide show you the beauty of Rome at high altitude. Your guide will start the tour by pointing out a few visual reference points while up in the air to get you oriented, while you take in the beauty from above. This Helicopter Tour Around Rome enables you to see the Colosseum like you have never seen it before – highlighting the wonders of the urban architecture of ancient Rome from 2000 years ago. With Michelangelo’s famous dome jutting above the skyline, you will have a chance to admire the highest architectural structure in the city, no other building can surpass it height according to city laws! The patrimony of the city is all within your sight and the exhilarating feeling of seeing Rome from above is something simply amazing.

Your pilot will fly close to the border of the no-fly zone in northern Rome above the famous Olympic Stadium area from here you will also get to see the Foro Italico, a 1938 sports complex built for the Olympics. You will see Rome’s Ponte Milvio Bridge, known as the love lock bridge of young lovers and other sights including the Renzo Piano Auditorium, Pantheon, Palatine Hill and on a clear day even the Castelli Romani mountains!

Once you have landed back at Urbe Airport, your chauffeur will be there to meet you and take you back to your hotel so you can unwind and take in the wonderful experience.

This is an unforgettable, once in a lifetime experience.

CHOOSE HOW LONG YOU WOULD LIKE TO FLY FOR

The longer the flying time, the more comprehensive overview of the city and its surrounding areas. And if you simply want to linger less on the city center views and make your way towards the outskirts, let us know. Your pilot will fly over the Frascati wine region, Villa Adriana and Castel Gandolofo, the Pope’s summer residence, Bracciano Lake, Odelscalchi Castle, the small village of Anguillara and the charming town of Trevignano.

Please Note:

Inclement weather may change the itinerary due to safety reasons.

There is a maximum weight capacity each helicopter can handle, so we will be asking your weight upon booking. Passengers will be seated according to weight in order to create balance in the helicopter. These are mandatory aviation guidelines which are imposed for your safety.
