Description
With the helicopter overflight tour over the city of Ushuaia you will enjoy unique panoramic views of the End of the World, the Beagle Channel, the mountains, islands and glaciers from a different perspective while enjoying an experience difficult to forget. You will fly over the city of Ushuaia in a 7-minute flight.
The tour starts from the old airport and where you will have the first contact with the helicopters. One of those used (Robinson 44 Raven I) has capacity for up to 3 passengers and the excursion is confirmed with a minimum of 2 passengers. Due to the type of design, it has wide visibility as it has a roof-to-floor front window and is ideal for enjoying the amazing Fuegian landscapes without visual restriction. It is such a faithful aircraft that it has been the most produced and sold aircraft on the market between 1999 and 2017.
After a short safety briefing, we take off towards West to appreciate the Beagle Channel and Mount Susana, then we turn right heading East to enjoy the wonderful view of the city of Ushuaia, the Andes Mountains, the Martial Glacier, Mount Cinco Hermanos and the emblematic Mount Olivia. Later we fly over the downtown area with its characteristic buildings such as the Prison, the Government House, the local port, among others, and then we return.
