About the experience
Experience the iconic Emmerdale set like never before with the Emmerdale Heli Sightseeing Tour! This unique tour takes off from Elvington Airfield, located on the east bank of the River Derwent in the East Riding area of Yorkshire. You will climb aboard an executive helicopter and soar high above the beautiful Yorkshire countryside for a truly unforgettable experience. Since 1972, Emmerdale, previously known as Emmerdale Farm, has been captivating audiences with its gripping storylines and beloved characters. The show is set in the charming village of Beckindale, and its fictional world of love, drama, and scandal has become a staple of British television. The show's famous outdoor scenes have been filmed in Arncliffe and Esholt, but since 1998, the cast has been based at a purpose-built set located at Harewood in Eccup. And that's exactly where you will fly over during this one-of-a-kind tour. As you look down on the Emmerdale set from above, you'll be amazed at how realistic it appears. You'll see the church, the famous Woolpack Inn, and all the houses that have become familiar to fans of the show. But did you know that the buildings are actually made from timber frames, with traditional Yorkshire stone cladding? You'll also catch a glimpse of Butler's Farm, which is actually Brooklands, a working farm located in Eccup. For those who love the long-running TV series, the Emmerdale Heli Sightseeing Tour is a must-do experience. Immerse yourself in the world of Emmerdale and imagine the Sugdens and the Dingles on set, and Eric Pollard having a swift half in the Woolpack. The tour lasts approximately 45 minutes, and in addition to the Emmerdale set, you'll also see the Harewood Farm estate and other picturesque parts of Yorkshire. Don't miss out on this rare opportunity to see the Emmerdale set from a bird's-eye view. Book your Emmerdale Heli Sightseeing Tour today and create memories that will last a lifetime!
