There is only one way to see all of Iceland’s picture-perfect natural sites during the course of a single day—a helicopter ride. This offers a unique bird’s eye view of a country that has the capacity to endlessly fascinate travellers. The views offered by a helicopter ride over Iceland provide an extraordinary experience for travellers who want to turn a regular holiday into something extremely special.
The Norðurflug Helicopter Service, which operates from Reykjavik Domestic Airport, is the most popular helicopter service in the country. A variety of tour operators offer aerial tours of Reykjavik, The Golden Circle, Skjaldbreidur and Eyjafjallajokull volcanoes, and Icelandic glaciers. Each of them offer something special but we absolutely love the feeling of flying over a glacier and watching an endless mass of ice stretch out to infinity beneath us. It’s also extremely fascinating to watch the volcanic creations in the Krafla Volcanic Area from above. The turquoise lakes shine brighter, the steamy fumaroles seem to extend to the skies, and the barren landscape acquires a halo of magic—highly recommended!
