Description

Few moments in life are as powerful as a proposal, and few places on Earth are as dramatic as Iceland’s volcanic landscapes. This private helicopter flight takes you from Reykjavík over steaming geothermal fields, lava formations, and the site of recent eruptions before landing near an active volcanic area for the ultimate proposal backdrop.

Step out onto the rugged black lava fields with geothermal steam rising around you, an otherworldly stage for your big moment. Waiting on the ground will be a chilled bottle of Champagne and flowers, included in the price, to celebrate the “Yes.”
