The sound of whirring blades, the feeling of liftoff, and the stunning views of the ground falling away from you can only be found one way: aboard a helicopter. Whether you’re flying over the Hong Kong skyline or hovering above Iguazu Falls, a heart-stopping, jaw-dropping ride will thrill adrenaline junkies and avid photographers looking for the perfect, unobstructed shot. Some landscapes simply demand a view from above, so climb aboard one of these twenty helicopter rides for an unforgettable experience.

LAIKIPIA PLATEAU, KENYA
Kenya’s western territory is one of the country’s less-visited areas, but its wildlife conservation efforts have made it one of the best places to see Kenya’s unspoiled scenery away from the crowds. The diverse landscape includes semideserts, scrubland, cedar and olive tree forests, and wide expanses of savannah. Helicopter rides in the area can take you past the 17,000-foot peak of Mount Kenya and the dramatic sheer cliffs of Ol Lolokwe. Three-day safaris with Tropic Air begin in Nairobi; traverse the deserts of Northern Kenya, the Hoodoo Valley, Lake Logipi, and the Suguta sand dunes; and end at the Melako Conservancy.
