Atlantsflug such an amazing experience!!

Published on Jul, 2023

My recent helicopter tour with Atlantsflug from Skaftafell, Iceland, was an absolute thrill that left me awe-inspired. From start to finish, it was a seamless experience that exceeded all my expectations. The moment we took off, I knew I was in for a treat. The stunning landscapes of Iceland unfolded beneath us like a mesmerizing tapestry of ice-capped peaks, sweeping glaciers, and lush valleys. The sheer beauty of Skaftafell from above is an unparalleled sight that words fail to describe adequately. The skilled and knowledgeable pilot from Atlantsflug added an extra layer of excitement to the journey. Their expert commentary provided fascinating insights into the region's geological wonders, creating a richer and more immersive experience. As we soared over Vatnajökull National Park, the feeling of freedom and exhilaration was unmatched. The unique vantage point from the helicopter allowed us to witness natural wonders that can only be accessed by air, making it an exclusive adventure. Every moment of the tour was captured by the attentive staff, ensuring I could relive those remarkable moments even after the flight. The entire team's passion for their work and dedication to safety made me feel at ease throughout the journey. In the end, I can confidently say that this helicopter tour with Atlantsflug was an unforgettable experience of a lifetime. If you ever find yourself in Iceland, don't miss the opportunity to embark on this amazing adventure. You'll be left in awe of the breathtaking beauty and grandeur that Skaftafell has to offer from the skies.

One of the best experience in our lives!

Published on Oct, 2022

We do recommend to book the Ultimate Skaftafell Airplane Tour with the company Atlantsflug. It was one of the best experience in our lives!!! It is impossible to describe how amazing and beautiful Iceland is from the airplane. During 1,5 hour we saw a big area including glaciers, lakes, mountains etc. Our pilot was very friendly and he shared a lot of interesting information with us during the trip. If we have a chance to repeat this activity, we will definitely do it! It is worth it!

Highlight of our trip to Iceland!

Published on Feb, 2022

Excellent Experience would recommend to anyone. No Pictures can ever show you how amazing the views are from above such a beautiful country. Our kids said this is the highlight of their trip! And there were a lot of amazing places The staff and pilot were excellent and very accommodating and would highly recommend using them if you want to see Skaftafell and the Largest glacier in Iceland

Great flight for first time fliers. Good explanation of the terrain we were flying over. Friendly and hospitable,well worth the cost.

Incredible flight, amazing scenery with an excellent pilot.

Published on Sep, 2019

This was an incredible way to see more of the landscape than what most people are able to see. We flew over Glaciers, Volcanoes, Glacial lagoons and so much more. The pilot was very good and knowledgeable about the areas we were flying over.
