Really short flight, less than 10 minutes when it was described as 15 minutes so I'm really disappointed. You take off, briefly fly along the cost and turn back. Fun for a moment but a waste of money, I think they are the only ones in Barcelona and clearly taking advantage of the lack of competition. Thumbs down
The city is beautiful but the aerial view is amazing. I was about 10 minutes late from my scheduled arrival and they worked around it and still able to move our flight 5 minutes behind. However, I wish they had a recording in the helicopter pointing out where to look at and what not.
Fantastic view from the Helicopter, specially the Barcelona grid just amazing. Money well spend.
Loved loved loved this tour. There are no words to describe how beautiful this city looks for up high. Absolutely recommend - best way to see Barcelona or a hot air balloon but we'll do that next trip.
I enjoyed the 12 min helicopter ride. The view of Barcelona up in the air is absolutely stunning. What I love is the coastline of Barcelonetta. 12 min was enough for me as I am afraid of heights. The price was dear but it was worth it. The only thing I was concerned about that in case of emergencies, there was no proper instruction how to unfasten/fasten the seatbelt. But overall it was amazing!
Make sure to sit on the left or next to the pilot! What I did not like to be honest is that the Helicopter does not take off unless it has a minimum of 4 - 5 passengers, so we had to keep communicating with the operator to make sure that there will be a departure, and we nearly had to cancel.
