    Your Athens helicopter tour begins with takeoff from Athens International Airport, heading toward the historic Elliniko area. Once home to the city’s main airport, this district is now transforming into a modern coastal hub. From above, you’ll have a clear view of the impressive Elliniko Tower, poised to become Greece’s tallest building, standing as a symbol of the city’s architectural future.
  2. Kaisariani

    Fly over the Kaisariani forest - a beautiful mountain near the heart of Athens.
  3. Mount Lycabettus
    Pass by
    Next, you circle Lycabettus Hill, the highest natural point in the city. Covered in greenery and offering uninterrupted views across the capital, the hill becomes even more striking when seen from above, with the small white church of Saint George at its peak.
  4. Flisvos Marina

    The tour then heads toward the Athens Riviera, where the bright blue sea meets long beaches, coastal parks, marinas and luxurious seaside areas. The combination of natural light, coastline patterns and sparkling waters creates a stunning finale to your flight before returning to the airport.
  5. Acropolis

    Your helicopter continues toward the center of Athens, giving you a panoramic look at major streets, neighborhoods and historic quarters.
