Menton lies near the eastern end of the French Riviera, close to the Italian border, with a harbour town against the hills and the coast continuing toward Italy. From the seafront you see the bay and the next ridge. From a helicopter the position is clearer: after Monaco and Roquebrune-Cap-Martin the shore runs on to Menton, with the border country beyond. On the Nice<\/a> hub it is a named sight on the shared panoramic flight\u2019s eastbound leg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Nice French Riviera 20-Minute Shared Helicopter Tour<\/a> is the tour that reaches it. You spend about 20 minutes in the air in a shared Airbus helicopter, from \u20ac232 per person. After the western leg past Antibes<\/a> and Cannes<\/a>, the route covers Villefranche-sur-Mer<\/a>, \u00c8ze<\/a>, Cap d’Ail, Monaco<\/a>, Roquebrune-Cap-Martin and Menton, with La Turbie and Sainte-Agn\u00e8s also on the flight path. Menton is toward the eastern end of that list, after the principality rather than before it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The flight is shared and limited to 6 participants. A minimum of 4 passengers is required for the flight to operate; if that minimum is not met you receive a full refund. There is no landing in Menton and no border crossing on foot; you see the town and the approach toward Italy from the air as the panoramic route continues. The flight remains a sightseeing loop based out of Nice, not a one-way trip into Italy. Menton comes late on the eastbound list, after Monaco and Roquebrune-Cap-Martin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meet in front of Hotel Beau Rivage at 22 Rue Saint-Fran\u00e7ois de Paule in Nice city center. A free one-way transfer takes you to Nice C\u00f4te d\u2019Azur Airport for the helicopter departure. After landing, Tramway Line 2 outside the airport is a convenient way back to the city center; it is not a private return shuttle. The exact meeting time is confirmed after booking. Names of all passengers are required. Operating months are not stated; use the booking calendar to check dates and start times. Leave margin for the one-way airport transfer before takeoff and for the public tram when you return to Nice city center afterward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Free cancellation up to 24 hours before for a full refund. Flights depend on suitable weather and local airspace conditions. If your flight cannot go ahead, a new date may also be offered when available. Bring ID for every guest: European ID cards are accepted, and a valid passport is mandatory for non-European citizens. No minimum age is stated. Children can be booked; provide every passenger\u2019s first and last name when you book. No weight limit is stated at booking. If you have questions about seating or weight, check before you book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
