My wife and I took the helicopter tour of the Alps, lakes and Munich with Dirk Schepanek in July 2012 and we highly recommend it. The views from the air were incredible. Our flight started in Jesenwang and went south along the River Lech to Füssen with its famous castles. Then we flew over the Alps across into Austria and eastward to get outstanding views of Zugspitze, Eibsee, Garmish and Mittenwald. We were lucky to have excellent weather so that everything was clear. Then we flew back northward towards Munich past Walchensee, Kochelsee, and Starnbergersee. We did a loop around the city passing many of the famous sites including the palaces and Allianz stadium and returned to Jesenwang. The whole experience of arranging the flight and doing our first helicopter flight was handled professionally by Dirk. We only had one day during our visit to Bavaria that we could do the tour and Dirk had a delay in getting a part for his helicopter so he arranged with a colleague to do the tour on the colleague's helicopter. His colleague was also very professional and we ended up having two pilots so that one could explain where we were while the other was busy flying the helicopter.

I did the 45min Munich & Lake tour and it was such a awesome experience. Weather was fantastic, the view excellent, the flight extremely relaxed and captain Dirk was the best guide one could wish. I was surprised how green the city is. The airfield is cute in an almost romatic setting next to the Ammer Lake and ~30min away from Munich. Lookout for the last minute deals which are of great value, especially if there are only 1 or 2 of you. Next time I'll take my wife with me and go for the big Alps tour including Castle Neuschwanstein. Tipp: try to get the seat next to the pilot for best view and fotos!

I had been dreaming of flying with a helicopter for quite a while -
at last it worked this year on August 4 (private trip, 100 Minutes).
If you want to see some of Germany's most beautiful areas, like the alps, famous
castle "Neuschwanstein" and the reknown "five lakes", do it from a perspective, you've
never had before and grant yourself a helicopter-flight!
It was truely mind-blowing! If you fly with Dirk from Heliflieger, you'll feel safe at all times and get lots of extra information, the flight with him as a very competent pilot was worth every cent - it was beautiful and it was an unforgettable experience.
Great stuff, exceeded my expectations and I will do it again. Just do it and enjoy every moment!

My girlfriend and I took our first helicopter flight in life.
Thank you Dirk and his team for the arrangement of transportation. I know my exact living place in the last hour and he can arrange with the taxi driver to pick us up immediately after our arrival to Munich.
The weather is very good and we can see the blue sky with clouds in different shapes. Although we can't remember the names of the rivers, the mountains and the Alps, we can't forget the various color of the rivers and the house roofs that we see from the sky.
Dirk is very friendly and helpful. He and the taxi driver cooperate with me by telling my girlfriend that we are going to play Bavaria poker games before we are in front of the helicopter.
Most importantly, she said "Yes!".

When my husband said he wanted to take a helicopter tour while in Munich, I figured there'd be no way to accommodate such a special request, but sure enough, Heliflieger was and incredible treat during our stay.
We booked our tour with Dirk about two months in advance and he was extremely helpful and easy to work with via email. He set us up with the day and time we were looking for and checked in with us prior to our visit. It was easy to tell that they were looking forward to having us fly with them!
Dirk graciously provided very specific details for arriving at the airfield on the day of our flight. We chose to take the train and a taxi to get there but we just as easily could have rented a car.
The airfield is in a beautiful country side town just outside of Munich. There were many people at the restaurant there enjoying the weather and the view.
Once in the helicopter Dirk let us know what to expect during our 90 minute flight. We had one other passenger with us who spoke German, so Dirk provided comments in both languages.
I can't articulate how beautiful the Alps are from the air. The lakes, too, were so beautiful I was speechless. After spending the days walking around in the crowds of Munich, to see it from up above was incredible. And the view of Neuschwenstein was unmatched. We will never forget this amazing adventure.
Thank you, Dirk, for treating us with such hospitality before, during and after our flight. You gave us a very special memory that will stay with us always.
I can not recommend Heliflieger enough. If you have the opportunity to book this very special treat, you'll be very glad you did!

Both my children and I took the 30 minutes tour above the city of Munich. Reservation and appointments setting were handled very professionally. Our pilot was very friendly and explained a lot about the sites we were seeing. It was a surprise for both my children. They had a beautiful time. My son, who is interested in becoming a pilot someday, enjoyed seeing the inside of the helicopter. Our pilot explained to him a lot of things about flying a helicopter before we started our tour. It was a lovely experience, and I highly recommend Heliflieger to make it a more enjoyable one.

This is an amazing way to see Munich's lakes. We opted for a 20min flight which was a lot of fun. Even though the day was overcast, you could still see the alps from a distance as well. Our pilot was very knowledgeable about the region also which added to the experience. For those who are looking for something a bit different to do on their holiday, I highly recommend Heliflieger.

My daughter and I were planning a wonderful trip in Munich. As part of the event was to take a helicopter ride. Heliflieger was exceptional from start to finish. Worth every penny (or Euro) and a memory we will have for life!! I suggest that anyone who has wanted to try this - DO IT!! A personal thanks to our pilot, Dirk, for making our day an amazing one!!

myself and my friend came over from Ireland to Germany for 10 days. Definitely the highlight of the trip was the helicopter ride! Dirk was our pilot, personable, good communicator very well informed.
Weather was good views were better! Particularly castle neuschawnstein stunning from the air.
I would recommend to anyone visiting Munich, to give serious consideration to this flight ,you won't be disappointed.

Is it possible to get a helicopter from munich airport to augsburg airport after flight from england ? What would be the cost? Danke Markus
Written March 8, 2015
Hello Markus, thank you for your message. It is certainly possible but I question whether reasonable. The effort and associated cost would be a multiple compared to a less than 1 hour car drive. If you still like to do this, please email us via our website
Written March 17, 2015
Hello back :-) Tours start at €149 per Person - for more details pn tours, pricing and group discounts please take a look at Heliflieger's website -> Tours and Tickets
