Hollywood & Beverly Hills helicopter tour

A 20-minute flight over the Hollywood Sign, Griffith Observatory, Mulholland Drive and Beverly Hills’ celebrity neighbourhoods, with live pilot commentary.

The experience

Twenty minutes over Hollywood’s icons and Beverly Hills’ exclusive neighbourhoods, by helicopter.

Lifting off from Burbank Airport, the flight passes over Universal Studios, the Hollywood Sign, Griffith Observatory, the Hollywood Walk of Fame, Mulholland Drive and Laurel Canyon before reaching Beverly Hills and Bel Air’s celebrity neighbourhoods — every seat has clear visibility, with noise-cancelling headsets and live commentary from the pilot throughout.

It is a fast way to see the geography of Hollywood that ties the ground-level sights together, and works well either as a standalone twenty-minute flight or as the first orientation before a day exploring on the ground.
