Description

Nothing beats the rush of whooshing through the skies in a top of the range helicopter. After a thrilling ascent to an altitude of around 1,000 feet you’ll be able to survey the Essex landscape from a unique perspective. The experienced pilot will point all of them out as you go so no need to worry about missing any of the sights. Take a camera and get a series of stunning snaps to show both friends and family afterwards. Once back on terra firma, cream tea will be served at a charming onsite cafe.
