Helicopter tours can be done around Jakarta or other areas. Starting from Anyer, Bandung, Cilegon, to Puncak. Just released in 2017, this helicopter rental service that offers tours around the city of Jakarta as well as intercity transportation is a program of Helicity (Helicopter City Transportation) Indonesia. Helicity was founded in 2010.
There are quite a lot of fans of this helicopter tour, especially before the pandemic. "The majority of them go to Bandung or Anyer, but because of the pandemic, many choose to travel within the city (Jakarta)," explained Augie, during the ASTINDO Travel Fair event at PIK Avenue Mall, North Jakarta, Thursday (3/3/2022).
According to him, Helicity offers an unusual sensation, namely seeing the panorama of the city and Jakarta's tall buildings from above. Therefore, the offer of Heli Experience to surround the Capital City is increasingly in demand.
