Frequently asked questions
What's the best time to fly in Bern?
June to September brings the clearest alpine visibility and the least chance of a weather delay. Winter flights showcase snow-capped peaks but are more dependent on conditions at altitude.
What should I bring?
Warm layers year-round, since mountain air stays cold regardless of the season down at the airport, plus sunglasses for glare off the snow.
What happens if the weather doesn't cooperate?
Like most operators, tours in Bern have standard weight and balance limits (you may be asked your weight when booking or checking in), and pilots will delay or reschedule rather than fly in unsafe wind, low visibility, or storms. Booking a tour with free cancellation means a weather delay won't cost you anything.
Do all Bern helicopter tours fly over the same area?
No, routes vary a lot by tour. Some stay close to Bern and Lake Thun, while others fly much farther to the Matterhorn or toward Lake Lucerne, which usually means a longer flight and a higher price. Check each tour's route and duration before booking if seeing a specific landmark is the reason you're flying.
How much do helicopter tours in Bern cost?
Prices vary by route, duration, and whether the tour includes a landing, but tours in Bern currently start from around $981.96. Longer routes, private charters, and landing tours cost more.
Can I cancel or reschedule if my plans change?
Many tours listed here offer free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure, shown as a badge on each listing. Weather-related delays and cancellations are handled directly by the operator through Viator's booking system, and a tour booked with free cancellation won't cost you anything if it needs to be rescheduled.
