Morocco Adventure Tours

Helicopter Scenic Flights

Morocco has a gorgeous perspective from the air. Come and join us for a 30 minute flight from Marrakech towards Moroccos highest mountain, Mount Toubkhal. You'll be afforded stunning views of the Atlas Mountains on a clear day, as well as an amazing perspective on Marrakech itself as you fly towards the mountains. Fly in a spectacular B3 (Aerospatiale Squirrel) 6 seater aircraft with world class European qualified pilots. If you are looking for something just that little bit special to do on your holiday to Morocco, it is hard to beat a stunning scenic helicopter flight.

Your Flight

You'll be collected from your hotel or Riad in Marrakech and taken to Marrakech International Airport. Here you will have to clear Domestic security and make your way to the helicopter, where your pilot will give you a safety briefing and you'll embark on your trip. The helicopter will have 2 people sitting in the front with the pilot and 4 in the back seat, but all will have great views out of the helicopter. Make sure your camera batteries are fully charged as we fly over Marrakech to the Atlas Mountains and your flight near Toubkhal. No need to worry about walking up, you'll be in comfort as you fly near the mountain, sampling wonderful views on a clear day.

Flight Cancellations

In the case of a flight cancellation as a result of a decision not to fly:
The customer may choose at their discretion, either to postpone the flight (the new flight will be arranged by the helicopter company subject to aircraft availability) or be reimbursed.
The refund will be for the total amount paid by the customer and will be returned by bank transfer within 8 days following the cancellation.
We remind you that all flights are subject to weather, technical and regulatory requirements on the day of the flight.*

Personal Spending

The only money that you need to bring is for meals in town, souvenirs, DVD, personal items and the beer kitty for the raft trip if you drink. Please remember that many of the countries we visit do offer Credit Card and ATM facilities and for a small charge you can withdraw cash either from your account or Credit Card for convenience.
If you wish to pass on a gratuity to your guide we leave this entirely up to you.
Basically, we advise you to keep things as light as possible, without skimping on the necessities. It is great to bring back a load of goodies for everybody back at home.
