About this experience
↓
The Heli-Happy Hour is a private helicopter experience that lifts you above Reykjavík for a round trip to one of the table-top mountains surrounding the city. As you fly, the colourful rooftops of the capital spread out below you, giving way to neighbouring towns, the coastal plain, and vast lava fields that speak to Iceland's volcanic origins.
After 15–20 minutes in the air, your pilot lands on a mountain summit overlooking the city. Here, with panoramic views of the Reykjavík cityscape, distant peaks, and the open countryside stretching to the horizon, you'll celebrate with a chilled bottle of sparkling wine — a toast to one of the most spectacular vantage points in Iceland.
The full experience runs 30–50 minutes, combining the thrill of low-altitude flight with a relaxed, scenic pause on the hilltop. Whether you're marking a special occasion or simply seeking something extraordinary, this tour delivers a perspective on Iceland's capital that few visitors ever see.
Departures operate from Norðurflug at Nauthólsvegur in Reykjavík. The exact start time is confirmed by the operator after booking, as scheduling is coordinated around weather conditions and passenger details.
