Sightseeing by helicopter over Berlin's Mitte

Do you want to see central Berlin from above with a view of all the big sights? Then we recommend a helicopter tour over the city. Air Service Berlin is the only provider that can give you a view from high above Berlin's inner city.  On the "Berlin City" tour, you fly over the Reichstag, Brandenburg Gate, the TV tower, and Checkpoint Charlie.


Air Service Berlin flights start from Terminal D at Schönefeld Airport. You will be warmly welcomed at the counter there. You will receive your boarding passes and be driven to the helicopter in a white stretch limousine across the airport. Then it's time to get in, buckle up, and put your headsets on. And up it goes into the air directly to the centre of Berlin.


Please note that wheelchair service must be reserved and announced in advance.

 

Air balloon at Checkpoint Charlie

Tethered right at Checkpoint Charlie, this balloon from Air Service Berlin offers a fascinating view of the city from 150 metres in the air. Enjoy the feeling of floating over the city and discovering Berlin's sights from a completely new perspective. A steel wire keeps the balloon firmly anchored to the ground. Ascents depend on weather conditions; they usually take place every 15 minutes.
