Aerial Rhine: Private Scenic Helicopter Flight

Soar above the mighty Rhine, the Wesel port, and the vast Lower Rhine floodplains on a private scenic helicopter flight — an utterly spectacular bird's-eye perspective of Germany's greatest river.

What to expect

Lift off from a private pad near Wesel and sweep low over the Rhine's braided channels and floodplain islands — the scale and serpentine beauty of Europe's most storied river revealed in full. The pilot traces the historic WWII crossing point, the Bislicher Insel reserve, and the medieval spires of Xanten on the horizon. Touch down exhilarated with memories — and aerial photos — that will last a lifetime.
