It was my first time and I was both excited and nervous. The team there helped me check in and with the safety action briefing, before waiting for my turn. I was the 36th individual diving that day. My instructor ensured I was calm and mentally prepared to receive the instructions to be on the same page. I could see an elderly person and another first timer in my batch. We were grouped in batches of 6 I believe. Then it was time to get escorted to the plane, just after getting the harness attached, and then taking the plunge! Woo! The videos and pics were mailed later!

Jumping out at 13,000 ft with Dubai beneath me… the rush, the freefall, the heartbeat racing Then the parachute opened and suddenly, silence … Just me, the sky, and the Palm Jumeirah glowing below .. oh ya not forgetting the view of Burj Khalifa piercing through the clouds… insanely beautiful ☁️ Followed by the free yatch tour... Stunning skyline views, smooth ride, and amazing hospitality on board. Perfect mix of luxury and relaxation definitely a must do when visiting Dubai.

The gyrocopter ride in Dubai was absolutely amazing — an adventure of a lifetime! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized. The counter staff were incredibly kind and helpful, making the check-in process smooth and welcoming. Once in the air, the experience was breathtaking — flying over Dubai’s stunning coastline, iconic landmarks, and the amazing scenic view of the iconic Palm Jumeirah was simply unforgettable. The weather was perfect, with clear skies that made every moment a visual delight. The pilot was professional, friendly, and very informative, sharing fun facts and making sure I felt safe and comfortable throughout the flight. Gliding over the turquoise waters and seeing the Palm’s intricate design from above felt surreal — truly one of the most beautiful sights I’ve ever witnessed. For anyone visiting Dubai, this scenic gyrocopter ride is a must-try adventure — thrilling, peaceful, and full of wonder.

I had the most amazing time on the 20-minute gyrocopter flight from the Palm Dropzone! From the moment we arrived, the team was professional, friendly, and made sure we felt completely safe and comfortable. The flight itself was nothing short of breathtaking. Soaring above Dubai’s iconic skyline, the Palm Jumeirah, and the crystal-clear waters was surreal — the views were unmatched, and the gyrocopter gave a unique open-air feeling that made the experience even more thrilling. The pilot was knowledgeable and friendly, pointing out landmarks and ensuring we got the best possible views. It felt like a perfect mix of adventure and sightseeing. If you're in Dubai and looking for something unforgettable, I highly recommend this gyrocopter flight. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience that I’ll never forget!

As an influencer, I’ve experienced a lot—but nothing compares to the adrenaline rush and jaw-dropping beauty of the Dubai Helicopter Tour from Atlantis, The Palm! From the moment we lifted off, the views were next-level surreal. Gliding over Palm Jumeirah, Burj Khalifa, Burj Al Arab, and the endless skyline was pure magic. 🌴🏙️💫 Every second was Instagram-worthy, and the photos? Unreal!
