Ultramarine Helicopter Experiences
What truly sets Ultramarine apart is her pair of twin-engine Airbus H145 helicopters - offering the most extensive range of helicopter adventures in the polar regions. With seating designed for comfort, panoramic windows for photography, and industry-leading safety and sustainability features, these aircraft unlock places few travellers ever reach.
Guests can experience breathtaking flightseeing over ice fields, dramatic fjords and remote glaciers.
Exclusive heli-landings allow you to set foot where few have walked, while heli-hiking combines aerial access with guided trekking in untouched landscapes.
