Description

After a short pre-flight briefing you’ll board a Piper Seneca twin-engine light aircraft for a fantastic half hour sightseeing trip.

You’ll see the O2 arena, Tower Bridge, HMS Belfast, the towers at Canary Wharf, The London Eye and the Houses of Parliament, then turn north to fly over Trafalgar Square, Buckingham Palace and the royal parks, before heading back east to land in Essex.
