helicopter & flightseeing tours
Two operators we sell for, both running a helicopter or flightseeing tour. Here is what separates them, in the figures we hold — and where nothing does, this page says so.
Elding Adventure at Sea is ahead on more of what we can measure and costs about €329 less a head. The €329 is worth paying to Atlantsflug only if more to choose from in this one category, a higher Google score (4.9 against 4.5) or more dates to fit around the rest of the trip is what you are after.
Prices are per person for tours priced per person — private charters and vehicle-priced tours are left out, because a car price and a seat price are not comparable.

Our availability snapshot covers the next 360 days. In that window Atlantsflug has 322 bookable dates in this category and Elding Adventure at Sea has 86. An operator with no departures in the window is usually seasonal rather than closed.
No. We sell at the operator's own price — we are paid a commission by them, not a mark-up by you. The reason to book here is that you can put both operators' tours in one basket and pay once.
