Helicopter Ride Mount Batur Volcano Kintamani Lake Bali
Craving an unforgettable perspective of Bali? A helicopter ride offers just that, providing exceptional aerial views of the island’s diverse landscapes. While tours often start with routes like the 20-minute GWK-Uluwatu journey from Nusa Dua, priced from IDR 4,490,000 per seat, longer flights truly unlock the island’s magic. This initial route typically showcases iconic southern sights such as Uluwatu Temple, Dreamland Beach, Melasti Beach, Pandawa Beach, and the impressive GWK statue.
Northern Bali by Air
For those seeking more extensive exploration, a 30-60 minute helicopter flight is highly recommended to fully appreciate both the northern and southern Bali coastlines, even offering glimpses of Mount Agung. The northern route is a spectacle of natural beauty. Flying from Nusa Dua, you’ll cross the Badung Straits, where keen eyes might spot Manta Rays off the coast of Nusa Penida. This route continues along the dramatic limestone cliffs of Uluwatu, with the majestic Mount Agung often visible in the background, creating truly striking vistas.
Southern Bali’s Volcanic Wonders
The extended southern route offers an entirely different, yet equally stunning, set of panoramas. This journey takes you over the spectacular Mount Batur volcano, its caldera a striking natural wonder. Adjacent to it, the serene Kintamani Lake shimmers, providing a picturesque contrast to the volcanic landscape. Further south, you’ll soar above the UNESCO-listed Jatiluwih Rice Fields, an intricate tapestry of green, and the iconic Tanah Lot temple, perched dramatically on its rocky outcrop. Helicopter land-in add-ons can enhance your experience further, including convenient pickup/drop-off services, delightful picnics, opportunities for hiking, and even optional landings at various points along your route. Keep an eye out for promotions, as Fly Bali sometimes offers 10% off private helicopter experiences for long weekends.
