Itinerary – What You Will Experience

Departure from Capri by Private Helicopter
Your private tour begins at Capri’s helipad, where you will board your private helicopter. If you wish, a private pick-up from your hotel in Capri can be arranged for added convenience. After takeoff, you’ll immediately enjoy spectacular panoramic views over the island of Capri, its dramatic cliffs, elegant towns, and turquoise waters.

Scenic Flight over the Amalfi Coast and Mount Vesuvius
During the approximately 30-minute flight toward the mainland, you’ll fly over the crystal-blue Mediterranean Sea, the stunning Amalfi Coast, and the unmistakable silhouette of Mount Vesuvius. This aerial perspective offers incredible photo opportunities and a unique appreciation of southern Italy’s geography, impossible to experience from the ground.

Landing in Pompeii and Guided Archaeological Tour
Your helicopter will land in Pompeii, where you will meet your friendly private guide, officially licensed. Given the size, complexity, and historical importance of Pompeii, having a knowledgeable private guide is essential to fully understand the site.

For approximately two hours, your guide will lead you through the ruins of Pompeii, revealing daily life in a Roman city frozen in time by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. You will walk along ancient paved roads, see shops where merchants once traded, enter modest homes of ordinary citizens and lavish villas of the wealthy, and admire remarkably preserved frescoes whose colors remain vivid after nearly two thousand years.

Free Time for Lunch
At the end of the guided visit, if you wish, you may have a relaxed lunch break before returning to the helipad. This is an optional customization that we will be happy to arrange for you, together with a restaurant reservation. It will extend the duration of the experience of about two hours.

Return Flight to Capri
After your visit, board your private helicopter for the scenic return flight to Capri. The total flight time is approximately one hour round-trip (about 30 minutes each way), and the overall duration of the excursion is approximately four hours. Adding the lunch will extend the duration to about six hours.
