Helicopter Tours in Scotland |
Arran Heli-Tours
A Scenic Helicopter Tour and Charter service based at the Balmichael Visitor
Centre, Shiskine, on the Isle of Arran who specialise in flights over Ayrshire’s
beautiful West Coast and short tours around the Isle of Arran.
These tours vary from 10 minute tours up to a 35 minute full coastal circuit
of the Island. The most popular tour being the 15 minute, which takes in
about one-quarter of the islands scenery and has a choice of 3 varying routes.
All the routes that we fly have been chosen to maximum human privacy and
to minimise impact on sensitive wildlife concentrations. We are happy to
take group bookings or to relocate for these bookings. For example we can
base ourselves at a hotel or private site of your choice and fly passengers
wherever they request.
Arran Heli-Tours operate a Robinson R44 helicopter. The R44 is a four-seat
machine (3 passengers) with a maximum take-off weight of 2400lbs, driven
by a six-cylinder, horizontally opposed Lycoming piston engine.
The cruising speed of the helicopter is around 125mph.
The R44 can travel from Turnberry to Aberdeen or Liverpool in 1.5 hours
with four people on board.
The Isle of Arran
Arran is a small island off the West Coast of Scotland, which lies in the
Firth of Clyde. Due to the proximity of the Gulf Stream palm trees grow in profusion.
Arran, which means The Peaked Island in Gaelic, is twenty miles long and
approximately eleven miles wide and has fifty-six miles of meandering, coastal
road.
There are two roads which cross the Island; the String Road from Blackwaterfoot
in the west to Brodick in the east, and the Ross Road, a single track road
which runs from Sliddery in the south west to Lamlash, one of the larger
villages which overlooks the Holy Isle, home to the Eskdalemuir Buddhist
Retreat Centre.
