Lift off from Lelystad Airport for a private helicopter flight over the extraordinary patchwork of reclaimed polders, wind farms, and glittering IJsselmeer coastline — a perspective on the Dutch landscape that simply cannot be had any other way.
What to expect
Your pilot briefs you at the terminal before you ascend over Lelystad's bold modernist skyline and out across the ruler-straight canals and vast fields of Flevoland — Europe's largest artificial island. The IJsselmeer coastline glitters to the west, while on a clear day the Amsterdam skyline shimmers on the horizon. The 20-minute private flight is pure theatre; upgrade to a 40-minute tour to sweep over the historic waterfront villages of Enkhuizen and Hoorn.
Good to know
Lelystad Airport is 5–10 minutes from the Felison Terminal by taxi. Pre-book directly with HeliCentre as private slots are limited. Weight limits apply (advised at booking). Flights are weather-dependent; early morning slots offer the best visibility and light. The experience is over in 20–40 minutes, leaving ample time for other excursions.
