What Can I Expect

Oxford city helicopter tours from Oxford Airport! See the famous sights of this renowned university town from the unique vantage point of a helicopter on these superb 30-minute flights.

London Oxford Airport is a few miles north of Oxford city centre. It’s a small, friendly and welcoming place (something of a hidden gem for flyers with business aviation needs!) and well-placed along the Thames Valley.

These Oxford tours are operated by a Robinson R44 helicopter, seating up to three passengers. We are offering vouchers per seat, or you can opt for an exclusive booking for up to three passengers to enjoy a private charter.

There’s certainly a lot to see when you explore the local area by air. Enjoy those sweeping views across the Oxfordshire countryside as you follow the A4260 Oxford Road towards the city centre, where you’ll be enthralled by those famous landmarks.

From Harry Potter to Inspector Morse, the City of Dreaming Spires boasts spectacular architecture, especially the likes of Christ Church, the Bodleian Library and New College.

And there’s Oxford’s industry heritage, with the MINI plant at Cowley to the south east. Sporting fans will love swooping over Kassam Stadium, the home ground of Oxford United and the Rugby Ground.
