About the experience

An exclusive Dambuster flight in a top-spec, executive helicopter for six passengers! We are offering vouchers for 20-minute tours from various take off points around the Peak District to follow in the flight path of 617 Squadron. And of course, it’ll just be your private group and the pilot in the helicopter. The voucher price is for up to six passengers and you can invite fewer people if you wish - perhaps for that ultimate romantic gesture! On this 20-minute Dambuster flight, your helicopter departure point is Moor Farm near Buxton. Your flight path will most likely include Chatsworth House and the wild and wonderful Mam Tor on your way over to the famous Derwent Dam. Reaching the wonderfully picturesque Hope Valley, you’ll soon spot the twin-towered Derwent Dam, which stands proud at the southern end of Derwent Reservoir (it's Hawden Dam at the northern end!). The views are incredible from the air, especially if the water is cascading over… Just take a moment to drink in those views, whilst thinking what it must have been like for those young pilots flying low-level over the dam, practising with the ‘bouncing bombs’ ready for that incredible mission in 1943 to the German Ruhr. All is peaceful around Derwent today and you’ll see hikers and sheep around the reservoir, rather than WW2 aircraft on Dambuster practice missions! On your return to base, celebrate and commemorate your exclusive Dambuster flight with a glass of bubbly and/or delicious artisan chocolates that will be presented to you.
