The 20-minute gyrocopter flight from the Palm Dropzone was nothing short of incredible. From the moment takeoff began, the views were absolutely breathtaking — seeing the Palm, the Dubai Marina, and the coastline from that low altitude felt surreal. The aircraft felt safe and stable, and the pilot was extremely professional, friendly, and knowledgeable, pointing out landmarks and making the whole experience even more enjoyable. It’s the perfect mix of thrill and comfort, and genuinely one of the best aerial experiences you can have in Dubai. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for something unique and memorable. Worth every minute
