The offer
Frequently asked questions
How intense is a 20-minute helicopter tour over Stockholm?
Expect a continuous aerial perspective of Stockholm's archipelago, bridges and waterways from the moment you lift off. The sensation on takeoff and banking turns is real, though this is a scenic experience rather than an aerobatic one. It's rated 'Everybody welcome', so no prior adrenaline experience is required.
What's the most thrilling moment of the flight?
The initial liftoff and low-altitude banking turns over the water are consistently flagged as the highlight. Hovering above Stockholm's islands gives a disorienting sense of height that ground-based viewpoints simply can't replicate.
Is this suitable for people who are nervous about heights?
The tour is classified as 'Everybody welcome', and the enclosed cabin reduces exposure compared to open-air activities. That said, expect genuine altitude and movement. If heights are a real concern, a short trial seated inside the helicopter before takeoff can help.
How far in advance should I book this helicopter tour?
With only one operator running this route from Bromma Airport and a fixed slot structure, booking at least 1 to 2 weeks ahead is strongly recommended. Weekend and summer departures fill fastest given Stockholm's short peak season.
