Bali helicopter charter provides scenic flights, island transfers, and aerial photography experiences across Bali, Lombok, and the Nusa Islands. Options include Airbus H130 (6 seats), Bell 407 (6 seats), and Robinson R44 (3 seats). Popular routes: Bali to Lombok (25 min vs 5 hours by road+ferry), aerial tours of Mount Agung and Tegallalang rice terraces (30-60 min), and resort-to-resort transfers. Prices from $1,500/hour.
Bali’s geography — volcanic mountains, dramatic coastlines, terraced rice valleys, and surrounding islands — makes helicopter the ultimate way to experience the island. A helicopter charter transforms hours of road travel into minutes of breathtaking aerial views. The flight from South Bali to Ubud takes 12 minutes by helicopter versus 90 minutes by car. Bali to Lombok takes 25 minutes versus 5+ hours of driving and ferry travel.
Beyond practical transportation, helicopter flights offer experiences impossible by land: aerial views of active volcano Mount Agung, the turquoise waters surrounding Nusa Penida’s cliff formations, sunset flights over Tanah Lot temple, and exclusive access to remote helipad-equipped resorts and private villas. Our charter service is popular for marriage proposals, anniversary celebrations, corporate incentive trips, and photography expeditions.
30-60 minutes. Fly over Uluwatu cliffs, Jimbaran Bay, Kintamani volcano, Tegallalang terraces, and Tanah Lot. From $1,500.

45 minutes. Golden hour flight with champagne, dedicated photographer optional, landing at exclusive clifftop helipad. From $2,500.
Our charter network includes the Airbus H130 (premium touring helicopter, panoramic windows, 6 passenger seats, air-conditioned, noise-reduced cabin), Bell 407 (versatile 6-seat helicopter ideal for transfers and group flights), and Robinson R44 (economic 3-seat option for couples and photographers). All aircraft are AOC-certified, operated by experienced Indonesian-licensed pilots with 3,000+ flight hours, and maintained to international EASA/FAA standards.
Primary helipad locations include Ngurah Rai Airport (GA terminal), Benoa Harbor, The Apurva Kempinski, Karma Kandara, and several private villa helipads in Uluwatu and Ubud. We can arrange pickup from the helipad nearest your accommodation.
Free cancellation up to 48 hours before flight. 50% charge for 24-48 hour cancellation. Full charge for under 24 hours. Weather-related cancellations receive full rescheduling at no cost. Safety is our priority — if conditions are marginal, we reschedule rather than risk.

For the ultimate VIP arrival, combine private jet or commercial concierge with helicopter transfer to your destination. Instead of a 90-minute drive to Ubud through traffic, a 15-minute helicopter flight delivers you directly to your resort’s helipad — or the nearest landing zone with a luxury vehicle completing the final transfer.
Helicopter transfers eliminate Bali’s primary post-airport challenge: road traffic. The combination of airport fast track (10 minutes) plus helicopter (15 minutes) means you can be at an Ubud resort 25 minutes after stepping off your international flight.
Bell 429 (5 passengers): Twin-engine, pressurized cabin, air conditioning, leather seats. The most popular choice for VIP transfers combining safety, comfort, and range.
Airbus H145 (8 passengers): Larger cabin for groups and families. Reduced noise levels, smooth ride, and space for luggage. Ideal for corporate groups.
Bell 505 (4 passengers): Light helicopter for scenic tours and shorter transfers. Panoramic windows provide exceptional visibility for aerial sightseeing.
Designated helipads exist at several luxury resorts (The Mulia, AYANA, The Apurva Kempinski) and at Bali International Airport. For other locations, we identify suitable landing zones within short driving distance of your destination.

Our helicopter charter service opens up aerial perspectives of Bali that no ground-based tour can match. The most popular routes include scenic flights over the UNESCO rice terraces of Tegalalang, dramatic coastal passes along the Uluwatu clifftops and Nusa Penida’s towering sea cliffs, volcanic summit tours circling Mount Agung and Mount Batur’s caldera, and inter-island transfers to the Gili Islands or Lombok that reduce a four-hour boat journey to just 25 minutes of breathtaking aerial travel.
For special occasions, our helicopter experiences include sunset champagne flights along Bali’s western coast, aerial photography tours with open-door configurations for professional photographers, wedding transfers from ceremony to reception venues, and emergency medical evacuation capabilities for remote resort locations. Each flight is operated by certified pilots with thousands of hours of Indonesian archipelago experience, using aircraft that meet international safety and maintenance standards.
Helicopter transfers pair perfectly with our luxury ground services. Arrive at Bali airport, clear immigration with our fast track service, and transfer directly to the helipad for an aerial connection to your final destination. For guests arriving by private jet, we coordinate customs clearance, ground handling, and helicopter departure for a truly seamless aviation experience.
