A genuinely unique view of a city or region can be had by visitors during a helicopter ride, which is also an exciting and enjoyable activity. Additionally, visitors can frequently only appreciate viewing more remote regions of a location on helicopter trips. For instance, a visitor can only see a big chunk of the stunning island paradise of Kauai in Hawaii by flying as 70% of it is unreachable by land. An overview of the world's most incredible helicopter rides:

1. Grand Canyon: Unbelievably large, the Grand Canyon is located in Arizona. It is about a mile deep and more than 11 kilometres (18 miles) broad. Because the canyon is so enormous, the only way for visitors to completely enjoy the breathtaking splendour of its vibrant rocks, buttes, and spires is by air.
   
   The greatest way for tourists to view how the strong Colorado River and its tributaries carved their way down the canyon is from the air. Helicopter excursions frequently include flights over adjacent Las Vegas, Lake Mead, and the Hoover Dam in addition to flying over the Grand Canyon National Park.
    
2. New York City: New York City's massive buildings might give the impression that you are strolling through concrete tunnels. Visitors should choose to take a helicopter ride to get a better perspective of this enormous and amazing city, which can take them high above such famous landmarks as the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, the Empire State Building, the George Washington Bridge, and the incredible green oasis of Central Park. One of the greatest ways to see New York City's renowned skyline is by taking a helicopter tour.
    
3. Rio de Janeiro: Consider taking a helicopter tour of Rio de Janeiro, the second-largest city in Brazil, to get a bird's-eye view of the huge metropolis and its surroundings. Visitors will be able to observe Sugar Loaf Mountain, the Copacabana and Ipanema Beaches, as well as the renowned Christ the Redeemer monument on Corcovado Mountain, from a vantage point high above Rio de Janeiro. Additionally, they will be able to see Maracana Stadium, which will host the opening ceremonies for both the 2016 Summer Olympics and the 2014 World Cup.
    
4. Hawaii: Visitors to the Hawaiian Islands have a variety of helicopter rides to select from. On the Big Island of Hawaii, for instance, there are flights that will take visitors over lava flows, erupting volcanoes, and beautiful waterfalls.
   
   Visitors to Oahu can view a side of this island that many other tourists never care to see as they cruise over this island's pineapple farms, Keehi Lagoon, Hanauma Bay, and the breathtaking Sacred Falls. Additionally, the greatest way to see the stunning island of Kauai and its 23 km (14 miles) of breathtaking sea cliffs is on a helicopter tour. Kauai is renowned for having numerous stunning waterfalls. Many of these breathtaking locations are unreachable by ground transportation, so for the majority of visitors, a helicopter ride will be their only opportunity to see them.
    
5. Iguazu Falls: The Iguazu Falls, which are situated on the border of Brazil and Argentina, are one of the most magnificent sights in the entire world. Iguazu Falls, one of the great natural wonders, is actually composed of roughly 275 individual smaller falls that are dispersed across a distance of 2.5 kilometres (1.7 miles). Additionally, it is one of the biggest waterfalls on earth. One of the greatest ways to witness this massive and powerful waterfall is unquestionably from a helicopter trip. Visitors can witness the famous Devils' Throat region of the falls from above, as well as the stunning emerald vegetation that encircles it.
    
6. Cape Town: What about checking something off your bucket list? Visitors to Cape Town can get a tour of both the Indian and Atlantic oceans while in a helicopter. The spectacular Twelve Apostles mountain range and picturesque Table Mountain, one of Africa's greatest natural wonders, are also accessible to lucky pilots. Helicopter passengers may even have a chance to see the infamous and terrifying great white sharks of the region as they soar over Muizenberg Beach in Cape Town.
    
7. Victoria Falls: These magnificent waterfalls, which may be the biggest in the entire world, span the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe in Africa. Victoria Falls is the largest sheet of falling water in the world, measuring over 1,708 metres (5,604 feet) in width and 108 metres (354 feet) in height. A helicopter ride is the ideal method to witness this natural wonder because the waterfall is so large that the only way to see it entirely from the ground is from the air. During a helicopter tour, you might even get a chance to see some of Africa's famous species, including hippos or elephants.
    
8. Everest Base Camp: Most people will only have one chance in their lives to visit the Mt. Everest Base Camp in Nepal. This excursion is certainly worth taking, even if you don't intend to climb the challenging 8,848-meter (29,029-foot) peak. The spectacular Himalayan mountain range will be flown across by the helicopter's passengers, who will then land at the fabled Everest Base Camp, which is situated at a height of 5,364 metres (17,598 feet) above sea level. This breathtaking area, at the foot of the tallest mountain in the planet, is truly unique.
    
9. Fox Glacier: In a country full with spectacular sights, New Zealand is known for having some of the most breathtaking landscapes in the world, and its Fox Glacier is a must-see. In Westland Tai Poutini National Park, there is a glacier with a length of 13 km (8 miles), known as the Fox Glacier. Before landing in the snow, passengers on this helicopter tour will enjoy a bird's eye view of the glacier's peaks and crevasses as well as the spectacular Mount Cook. Visitors can also choose the two-glacier excursion, which will take them over both Franz Josef and Fox Glaciers.
    
10. Sydney: The most populated city in Australia is especially stunning when seen from a great height. Passengers on a helicopter trip will be able to take in breathtaking views of Sydney Harbour, the Taronga Zoo, the iconic Sydney Opera House, and the renowned Sydney Harbour Bridge. While some trips can fly up towards the magnificent Blue Mountains and its Megalong Valley, some tours will fly over Sydney's gorgeous coastline, including Bondi Beach.
