The experience

The helicopter departs from Stockerau and climbs over Vienna with informative commentary from your pilot. Window seats are guaranteed, so you're not craning over a neighbor to see out. The route takes you over the Danube, then past Greifenstein, the old castle ruin on the river bank, and Klosterneuburg Monastery nearby. On the return, you pass Kreuzenstein castle and get a final view of the Donau Auen, one of Europe's largest wetlands, before landing.

The flight is built for two passengers, and the aircraft's weight and balance mean anyone over 110 kg may need to purchase an additional seat, payable to the operator on the day. Infants can sit on an adult's lap. The tour operates with a live guide speaking English or German, and the whole experience runs 30 minutes from takeoff to landing.
