FlyOver recently celebrated the grand opening of its brand-new film, and it’s set in one of the coolest places on Earth—pun intended. Using state-of-the-art technology, guests are taken through the organic wonders of Iceland, one of the most remote countries in the world. Iceland is renowned for its raw beauty and extreme terrain, and is a destination spot for travelers across the world.

This Las Vegas Strip attraction provides a birds-eye view of some of the most breathtaking vantage points in the world. It is a natural addition to the Pursuit collection.

Dip and Dive into 4-D Details

If the air feels wet, the person behind you didn’t sneeze. FlyOver is realistic in its minute details, moving guests on a suspended platform like a bird flying through the air. The moisture felt is a light spritz of mist, meant to imitate the condensation of clouds in the sky, along with air gusts and smells to create an immersive setting for its riders.

FlyOver is an immersive experience that is on par with some of the movie theaters in Las Vegas.
