Helicopter Tour · Palma de Mallorca
How to choose
Three distinct offers now depart from Son Bonet Aerodrome, with prices ranging from 110 € to 575 €. The real split is scope and duration: the shared flight by The Helicopter Centre Mallorca costs 110 € for 30 min, covering Palma de Mallorca and its bay. For the same price, The Aviation Helicopter Centre offers a shorter 8 min scenic experience. The private option at 575 € for 50 min unlocks a broader circuit of Mallorca, from the Serra de Tramuntana coastline to the southeast coves. If you want a quick aerial rush over the capital, book the 30 min shared flight. If your group wants an exclusive cabin and a longer flight path, the private tour justifies the investment.

Frequently asked questions
How intense is a helicopter tour over Mallorca?
Intensity is visual rather than physical. You gain altitude fast on takeoff, and the panoramic views of sheer coastal cliffs and open sea arrive almost immediately. There is no freefall or G-force, but the sensation of cruising at low altitude over open water is consistently described as exhilarating by passengers.
What is the most jaw-dropping moment of the flight?
Most passengers point to the moment the helicopter clears the urban edge of Palma and the full sweep of the bay opens up below. On the private tour, rounding the northwestern cliffs of the Serra de Tramuntana is a frequent highlight cited in reviews.
Do I need any prior experience or fitness level to join?
No experience required. The tours list 'Everybody welcome' as their physical level, so there are no fitness prerequisites. You board, buckle in and the crew handles everything from takeoff to landing.
How many people are on board for each tour?
The shared flights accommodate multiple passengers in a standard helicopter configuration. The private tour is reserved exclusively for your group, giving you the full cabin and a personalised route over Mallorca.
Is 30 minutes enough to see Mallorca from the air?
The 30 min option focuses on Palma and its bay, which is enough for a strong aerial impression of the capital. If you want to reach the northern coastline or the turquoise coves of the southeast, the 50 min private flight covers significantly more ground.
