About the experience

Take to the skies on an unforgettable Ironbridge Gorge and Severn Valley Helicopter Tour, enjoying spectacular aerial views of one of England's most historic landscapes. Departing from the former RAF base at Wolverhampton Halfpenny Green Airport, you will fly over the beautiful Shropshire countryside and discover the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution from a whole new perspective. The highlight of the flight is the iconic Iron Bridge, the world's first major cast-iron bridge. Opened in 1787 and now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this remarkable engineering achievement is even more impressive when viewed from above. Your scenic route also takes in several landmarks managed by the Ironbridge Gorge Museum Trust, including Blists Hill Victorian Town, the historic brick kilns and the Hay Inclined Plane. You will then soar over the market town of Bridgnorth, the ancient Wyre Forest, the National Trust's Kinver Edge, the Clee Hills, West Midlands Safari Park and Kidderminster before returning to base. Lasting around 30 minutes, this executive helicopter flight offers stunning bird's-eye views of Shropshire and Worcestershire, making it a memorable experience for history lovers, sightseers and anyone looking to see the region from a unique perspective.

Michael Baker

Eric Butcher
First flight in an helicopter pilot was great, fantastic exsperience,do it again.
Liz Barratt
Well organised, flights on time and good directions to the venue. As other reviewer stated would have been nice to have seen a map of planned flight so we could identify features beforehand
John Chatwin
Only one point. The pilot was unable to identify some features on the ground. This was very frustrating. An idea would be to provide a returnable map to the passengers with interesting points marked A,B, etc.The pilot would then be able to point out the features by reference to the map and indicate where we were as we flew along. He was unable to point out the inclined plane.The organisation and ground staff were very good
