Flying Experiences in Scotland

In Scotland you can take part in a helicopter experience that involves a flying lesson and tour of the hangers as well as lunch. This four-hour experience would be ideal for someone dreaming of becoming a helicopter pilot one day. Alternatively you could experience the thrill of a short 15-minute ride in a luxurious helicopter over stunning Scottish scenery.

If you would prefer to fly a fixed wing aircraft over the Highlands and Islands of Scotland then you could choose a 60-minute introductory flying lesson. Take the controls of a small aircraft while being supervised by an experienced expert and learn some basic flying skills. Alternatively, why not take a flight with an experienced instructor on a microlight. This highly maneuverable craft can add a different dimension to your flight over Scotland.

Taking a hot air balloon ride over beautiful Scotland would be another way of experiencing this country's tranquility at a slower pace. While floating over the lochs and glens enjoy a glass of bubbly high in the sky. The 360-degree visibility will certainly enhance the overall flying experience that you could appreciate together with another special person.

Tactical Helicopter Flying Lesson
Jo1970 · 19-10-2025

3rd time lucky

After 2 attempts in the summer, cancelled due to poor weather conditions, it was 3rd time lucky. The staff were very friendly and helpful on all occasions, and apologetic when cancelled. The flight was smooth and interesting, going over the sea, over a castle and grounds etc. About 15 minutes into the flight, you take over the controls, under the guidance of the pilot.

Awesome Adventures Experience Box
Noorie · 04-08-2023

Brilliant service, excellent communication

Huge variety of gifts to choose from. Easy to follow instructions. SOmetimes some offers can catch you out in terms of booking initial voucher then having to pay substantially more for a specific date/tour etc so I would recemmned you to read all details and find out inforamtion via emails/phone calls before purchasing anything. Other than that, the process and events are outstanding.
