HELICOPTER RIDE

Soar Above Paradise: Your Ultimate Helicopter Ride Experience in Costa Rica
Imagine gliding above emerald green rainforests, winding rivers, and golden beaches, the ocean breeze brushing past the windows of your private helicopter as you drink in breathtaking views of Costa Rica's Pacific Coast. This isn't just another scenic flight—it's an extraordinary helicopter tour that gives you a bird's-eye view of some of the most stunning landscapes in Central America. With Jaco Party Villas, you don't just visit Costa Rica—you soar above it.
 

A Unique Way to See Costa Rica

There are countless ways to explore Costa Rica, but none are quite as thrilling, intimate, and awe-inspiring as from the skies. Our helicopter rides in Costa Rica give you access to views and sights that ground-level tours simply can't match. From high above, you'll trace the contours of the majestic Tilarán Mountain Range, the wide arc of the Tarcoles River, and the dramatic line where jungle meets the Pacific Ocean.
This exclusive flight covers 80 miles of jaw-dropping scenery. You'll rise to about 1,200 feet in the air—high enough to take in the expansive beauty of the region, yet low enough to still feel immersed in the landscape. Every second in the air is an unforgettable memory in the making.
 

What You'll See From the Sky

Your journey begins as the rotor blades whirl to life, lifting you gently into the air. As the trees and rooftops fall away beneath you, an entirely new world opens up—one defined by the vastness of nature and the harmony of earth, water, and sky.
 

Tilarán Mountain Range

As you ascend, the Tilarán Mountain Range stretches out before you in magnificent green waves. These ancient highlands are home to countless species of wildlife and are cloaked in misty rainforest that glows an otherworldly green in the morning sun. From above, you'll appreciate the sheer scale of these mountains in a way that no hike or drive can replicate.
 

Pacific Coastline

The tour glides toward the coastline, offering sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean lapping against sandy shores. From this vantage point, the deep blue sea seems to stretch on forever, dotted with rocky outcroppings and hidden coves. Look closely; you may even see surfers catching waves or marine life moving just beneath the surface.
 

Tarcoles River & Crocodile Bridge

One of the most thrilling highlights is flying over the Tarcoles River, known for its massive American crocodiles. You'll hover above the famous Crocodile Bridge, a popular stop on land tours, but from the air, you'll have a commanding view of these prehistoric reptiles sunning themselves near the riverbanks and mouth. It's both awe-inspiring and slightly spine-tingling—in the best way possible.
 

Rainforests and Farmland

The scenery transitions into lush rainforest and rolling farmland, where you'll see a patchwork of green fields, winding rivers, and dense jungle canopy. From this height, the contrast between cultivated land and untouched nature is stark and beautiful. Watch for birds, monkeys, and other wildlife that occasionally break through the treetops.
 

A Private, Personalized Adventure

Unlike crowded tour buses or large group excursions, our helicopter ride is personal and intimate. We can accommodate 2 to 3 passengers at a time, making this the perfect activity for couples, small groups of friends, or even solo adventurers seeking a special moment of clarity above the clouds.
This isn't just transportation—it's an experience. You'll feel like a VIP from the moment you lift off to the moment you touch back down. Our pilots are friendly, professional, and knowledgeable about the region. They'll point out notable landmarks, offer fun facts, and help you spot things you might otherwise miss.
