Mauritius Helicopter Limited Airbus H125 flying over the south-west coast of Mauritius

Private helicopter tours in Mauritius

The lagoons, the craters and the Underwater Waterfall, seen the only way they truly make sense. A private Airbus H125, flown by Mauritius Helicopter Limited and arranged for you by Eternis Tours.

  • Airbus H125
  • Private flights from 15 to 75 minutes
  • Up to 6 guests
  • By request, 7 days ahead

The experience

The island, entirely yours

There is no seat number here and no one else on board. On a private flight the helicopter is reserved for your party: your pilot briefs you before take-off, and then the whole island opens up through the panoramic windows.

We are a licensed Mauritian tour operator, and we arrange every flight with Mauritius Helicopter Limited. You tell us the date and who is coming, and we take care of the paperwork with the operator.
