Barcelona is a truly beautiful city. From the magnificent architecture of Gaudí to the stunning views out across the Mediterranean Sea, there is no shortage of breath-taking sights to behold. You may think you have ‘sight-seen’ it all, but you haven’t really witnessed Barcelona in all her glory until you’ve seen her from the seat of a helicopter!

    Please could you give me any information re a 12min helicopter flight over Barcelona on 24 th November. It is for a 40th birthday gift for 3 people. Ideally an afternoon flight. Please respond as soon as possible as we have been let down by another company having made the booking a week ago!
    Kind regards

      Hi Rebecca,
      CatHelicopters offer a 10 minute flight (called the BCN Sky Tour) and they also offer a 15 minute flight (called the Mareseme Tour). Either would be perfect as a birthday gift!
      You can find all the information – such as the route, the price, etc – for these two flights on the following page:
      http://www.cathelicopters.com/?page_id=729&lang=en.

      If you need any more information for your flight then feel free to send CatHelicopters an email on this address: info@cathelicopters.com
      And don’t forget to claim your 27% discount if you are staying with oh-barcelona.com
      Enjoy the flight!
