Frequently asked questions

What's the best time to fly in Dubai?

November to March brings comfortable temperatures well suited to daytime and sunset flights. June to August is extremely hot, and haze can reduce visibility, so an early-morning or evening slot is worth requesting if you're flying in summer.

What should I bring?

Light, breathable clothing and sunglasses.

What happens if the weather doesn't cooperate?

Like most operators, tours in Dubai 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.

How much do helicopter tours in Dubai cost?

Prices vary by route, duration, and whether the tour includes a landing, but tours in Dubai currently start from around $198.15. 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.
