Traveler reviews
The experience
The helicopter takes off when it reaches its minimum capacity of four passengers, so you're not waiting around for a scheduled departure time that may or may not happen. Once airborne, you get an unobstructed view of Iguaçu Falls and the national park sprawling below: the scale and the water volume read differently from 300 meters up than they do from any boardwalk or overlook on the ground. The flight lasts 10 minutes, which is long enough to circle the main falls and see how the landscape connects, but short enough that the experience stays sharp and doesn't blur into a longer sightseeing loop.
Helisul Táxi Aéreo has been running these flights since 1972 and holds ISO 14000 environmental certification, the first Brazilian civil aviation company to earn it. All operations comply with strict aviation and safety standards. Infants sit on an adult's lap. Children from age 4 can have their own seat. The helicopter is wheelchair accessible, and public transportation options are available near the departure point. If you want hearing protection during the flight, a muffler is provided.
The company prices each seat individually, so you're paying for one place on the aircraft, not splitting a charter cost. For a private flight (meaning you want the helicopter to yourself) you'd pay for all the seats on the aircraft used. Either way, the flight doesn't operate on a fixed schedule. It departs once the helicopter fills to its minimum of four passengers.
Is this one for you?Ground-based falls tours show you the water from the boardwalks and overlooks. This flight shows you the scale and the entire landscape at once from above, which is the only way to see how the falls connect to the park and the region around it.
