This 20 Minute Helicopter Flight Experience Over Leicester is a brilliant way to surprise someone who’s done it all. Exciting and packed with unforgettable views, it’s the kind of experience that turns an ordinary day into an extraordinary day.
Departing from Leicester Airport, this shared helicopter flight lasts around 20 minutes and seats up to three passengers. Once the rotors start spinning and the ground drops away, Leicester looks completely different from above. With an experienced pilot on board, you won’t just be sightseeing, you’ll get guided views of the city’s most recognisable landmarks along the way.
This experience is a real winner for sports lovers. You’ll soar over the King Power Stadium, home of Leicester City FC, and pass by Welford Road, where Leicester Tigers fans know the action gets intense. Add Leicester Racecourse and the Leicestershire County Cricket Club to the route, and you’ve got a sightseeing tour that ticks a lot of sporting boxes in just 20 minutes.
There’s plenty more to spot beyond the stadiums. From the air, landmarks like the National Space Centre really stand out, while historic sites such as Abbey Pumping Station offer a fascinating contrast. You’ll also catch sight of popular shopping destinations including Highcross and Fosse Park, all laid out beneath you in miniature.
As a gift idea, this helicopter ride is perfect for people who are tricky to buy for. Whether it’s for a big birthday, important anniversary or a thank you gift for someone special, it's an experience gift that genuinely stands out from the rest.
