Helicopter tours are ones of the most amazing experiences I’ve had ! Expensive, yes, very much so, but omg the view. I’ve only done it twice (mostly because of the price
) – in Sedona, Arizona (US) and Kvikkjokk(Sweden). Both were amazing!
I’ve had a bit of a disadvantage in the first one – being small I was placed between two ladies, so, my view wasn’t as great as it could be… Yet, thanks to my Insta360 One X camera I made a nice video out of it lol (see on the right ). But even being squizzed in the middle, this sensation of flying in a helicopter was something I can’t compare to anything else!
The second tour happened more or less by accident I was hiking Kungsleden trail for 5 days. Staying in one of the STF huts along the way I was chatting with a guy who told me about a boat tour, and I decided to join said boating
On my last day, as I was having breakfast, the same gentleman approached me and asked if I’d like to share the helicopter fare with him and his friends

He left me to think and it took me about 3 minutes which is a lot for in my case I usually just jump at opportunities like that. I was contemplating the price, which was high, but the ‘when will I ever get a second chance‘ though won! And I’m so happy it did!
The view was gorgeous (see the pictures)! The bottom line here is that if you have a chance – jump at it, the experience is more valuable than money (well, that’s what I often feel, although I do often get stopped by the price myself ) I think everyone should try a helicopter flight at least once!
And P.S. I do have some nasty vertigo, but somehow helicopter flights felt pretty good!
