Bali is beautiful from the ground but it's breathtaking from the sky.

From rice terraces and cliffs to volcanic views and turquoise coastlines, the island's diverse landscapes are even more spectacular when seen from above. While many travelers explore Bali by car or scooter, a private helicopter tour offers an entirely different perspective; one that few people ever experience.

With Betterplace Concierge's Private Helicopter Tour, you can see above Bali's most iconic destinations in a luxurious 100-minute flight designed for comfort, privacy, and unforgettable views. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion, planning a surprise proposal, marking a honeymoon, or simply looking for a once-in-a-lifetime experience, this scenic journey lets you discover the Island of the Gods from a whole new angle.

Why Take a Helicopter Tour in Bali?

Bali is packed with incredible destinations, but seeing them all in a single day can be challenging. Long driving distances and ferry crossings often mean choosing between beaches, temples, mountains, or rice terraces.

A helicopter changes everything. Instead of spending hours on the road, you'll fly above Bali's most famous landmarks in one seamless journey. Within minutes, the scenery transforms from amazing beaches to towering volcanoes, from sea cliffs to UNESCO-listed rice terraces. Every window becomes your own panoramic viewpoint, giving you uninterrupted views that simply can't be captured from the ground.

Introducing Betterplace Concierge Premium Service: Helicopter Tour

A helicopter tour offers a memorable way to experience Bali, giving you the chance to see the island from a perspective that’s impossible to get from the ground. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply looking for a unique way to explore, it turns sightseeing into an experience of its own. To bring this experience to our guests, Betterplace partners with a trusted and experienced helicopter tour operator, ensuring a safe, seamless, and memorable journey from take-off to landing.

One of the highlights of this helicopter tour is the incredible variety of landscapes you'll see during the flight. Depending on your departure point, your route includes many of Bali's most recognizable attractions.

Discover Bali's most iconic landmarks from above:

Kelingking Beach

Often called one of the world's most photographed beaches, Kelingking Beach is famous for its cliff formation that resembles the shape of a T-Rex. From the sky, you'll truly appreciate the scale of its towering cliffs, white sand beaches, and crystal-clear ocean below. Unlike the crowded viewpoints on land, your helicopter offers an uninterrupted panoramic perspective that's impossible to experience any other way.

Broken Beach & Devil's Tears

As you continue over Nusa Penida, you'll witness two of the island's most famous coastal landscapes. Broken Beach forms a natural rock arch over the sea, while Devil's Tears showcases powerful waves crashing against rugged limestone cliffs. Seeing these formations from above reveals their unique shapes and shades of blue that are often hidden from ground level.

Manta Point

Keep your eyes on the water. On clear days, you may even spot manta rays gliding beneath the ocean's surface around Manta Point, one of Bali's most famous marine locations. The changing colors of the reef and deep blue ocean create an unforgettable aerial view.

Mount Agung & Mount Batur

No Bali skyline is complete without its volcanoes. Flying near Mount Agung, Bali's highest volcano, and Mount Batur, the island's famous active volcano, offers a dramatic contrast to the surrounding tropical landscape. Clouds often wrap around the mountain peaks, creating a scene that feels almost cinematic.

Jatiluwih Rice Terraces

Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage landscape, Jatiluwih stretches across rolling hills in a patchwork of beautiful green rice fields. Unlike smaller rice terraces, Jatiluwih becomes truly impressive when viewed from above. It's one of Bali's most peaceful and photogenic landscapes.

Tanah Lot Temple

Surrounded by the sea, Tanah Lot is one of Bali's most iconic temples. From the air, you'll enjoy a unique angle that highlights both the temple's dramatic location and the coastline surrounding it. Nearby, Nuanu Creative City offers a contrasting perspective, blending contemporary architecture, art, and lush tropical landscapes. Capturing both destinations from above creates a striking view of Bali's mix of cultural heritage and modern creativity.

Uluwatu, Melasti & Bali's Southern Coast

Depending on your departure route, you'll also fly above:

  • Uluwatu Temple

  • Melasti Beach

  • Waterblow, Nusa Dua

  • Garuda Wisnu Kencana (GWK)

Watching Bali's southern coastline unfold beneath you is one of the most memorable parts of the journey.
