Helicopter Rental and Expertise
- Premium Helicopter Rental: We provide helicopter rental services at a rate of 4650€ per hour, offering you the flexibility to design your ideal itinerary.
- Experienced Pilots: Our highly skilled pilots are experienced in boat landings and have a proven track record of providing safe and reliable transportation.

- Yacht Compatibility: We understand the unique requirements of yacht-based operations. We can provide detailed helicopter specifications and deck suitability information to ensure compatibility with your vessel. We are informed that your yacht features two full helidecks and a crew trained in helicopter operations, which facilitates smooth and efficient integration of our services.
Streamlined Procedures and Formalities
- Customs Formalities: To comply with regulations for excursions departing from foreign territory (such as yachts), a customs formality at the airport is required for helicopter passengers before onshore excursions and upon return to the vessel. This procedure is essential for international voyages. A fee of $850 USD is applicable for each airport transit to cover these formalities.
- Simplified Immigration for Yacht Guests: We understand the importance of minimizing administrative burdens for our clients. For yacht arrivals, we can arrange a simplified immigration process, potentially a one-off clearance for the duration of your vessel’s stay. We can explore options such as bringing Malagasy immigration officials directly to your yacht via helicopter or tender boat for initial clearance. This will allow your guests to enjoy their tours unhindered after the initial yacht clearance. We are happy to discuss these options in detail to optimize the process for speed and convenience during your visit to Nosy Be.
