If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to soar through the skies in a helicopter, then this is your chance to see an area of the country from above. There’s a reason that helicopters are the rock stars of the skies - their versatility means that they can land almost anywhere and because they can hover, they offer unparalleled views of the surrounding area which is impossible from other aircraft.
The chance to see an area from above is one which can give you a whole new perspective, whether it’s somewhere you are already familiar with or a spot that you are discovering for the first time. From beautiful landscapes to impressive towns and cities, an aerial view is one which can uncover hidden secrets, surprising features or just a completely new way to look at a place which may seem unremarkable from the ground.
You will be welcomed and briefed by a specialist team. Once you are safely strapped in the helicopter you will experience climbing to over 1,000 feet, accelerating to over 120 miles an hour, swooping over the landscape, then settling gently back on the ground. Cameras are positively encouraged, with an experience this exhilarating you will want to relive it as often as possible!
This experience is available on selected dates, March to October.

What was the name of the venue where your experience took place? Newmarket Grace - Supplier Team Thank you for your review of the Helicopter Buzz. I'm very sorry to hear that there was a long wait before you got to take the experience, I can imagine this did leave you feeling slightly disappointed.
In regards to the time spent up the in the air, we do state in the activity information, 'The flight lasts for approximately 5 minutes.' I can only apologise if this was over looked however I do hope you enjoyed the views!
Thank you again for your comments.Response from Activity Superstore

I had a buzz experience bought for me by my children. My wife was wanting to join me so I paid for her to be able to accompany me. On the day I upgraded our flight at a cost of an additional £30 each for a longer thrill seeker flight. We did not seem to be in the air that long as I recorded the flight on my phone which only equated to just over 6 minutes, I am wondering what I would have received on my initial Buzz flight. I feel my wife and I did not get any extra for the additional money we paid for our upgrade.

I received the buzz flight as a birthday present from my brother. The original flight date was hampered by poor weather so it was re-scheduled for December. By this time, pilot Sean had donned his Santa outfit to add a touch of seasonal cheer. A beautiful day and a lovely smooth flight ensued. As an added bonus, I got to sit in the front - certainly the place to be. A truly memorable experience.

My wife treated me to this flight and it was absolutely wonderful, I had extra flight time and the thrills flight as well that I loved with the swoops and dips and climbs. Would do it all again at the drop of a hat.

Helicopter flight was good but cramped as there were two large men plus myself in the back seat. Would be good if more effort could be taken to balance out size of people on the back seat as it is not designed for 3 people. I also found the booking process through the voucher very complicated and time-consuming
