Lisbon is a captivating city, filled with charming corners and nooks. Its vibrant neighborhoods, narrow and picturesque streets, lush parks and gardens, bustling areas full of lively bars, restaurants, and shops, create a unique and enchanting atmosphere. But exploring the city of seven hills on foot, by car, or even by tuk-tuk is not for everyone. It’s quite an adventure, especially if your stay in the capital is short. So, how about seeing Lisbon from above? Explore the city by helicopter? You must give it a try. Not only will you be able to see several tourist attractions all at once, but you’ll also view them from a completely different and spectacular perspective. Those who have taken this trip say it’s thrilling and provides a unique sense of adrenaline and excitement.
From the skies, the helicopter will offer you unparalleled panoramic views of the city that unfold before your eyes. You’ll be able to appreciate the beauty of the urban landscape, the city’s layout, its relationship with the river, and the geography of the Lisbon region, all from a privileged and impressive angle. You can see the majestic Tagus River, flowing into the Atlantic Ocean, the imposing 25th of April Bridge, connecting Lisbon to the southern bank of the river, iconic monuments like the Tower of Belém, a 16th-century architectural gem, and the magnificent Jerónimos Monastery, both UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The helicopter can also fly over the historic city center, from where you can catch a glimpse of the grand Praça do Comércio, pass by the São Jorge Castle, a fortress situated atop a hill, very close to one of Lisbon’s most typical neighborhoods – Alfama, with its narrow streets and simply stunning traditional houses!
The tour is private and personalized, so the places to explore are up to you. But one thing is certain: the experience will be etched in your memory forever. The feeling of freedom, the beauty of the landscapes, and the thrill of the flight make this adventure unique and unforgettable. Oh, and don’t forget to capture the journey! You’ll be able to take incredible photographs that would be difficult to obtain otherwise. Ready for takeoff?
