Aerial geotourism is a result of the combination of earth science, tourism, and aviation together, that is the tourism use of geodiversity, geoheritage, and especially geomorphological landscapes through various flying vehicles. In fact, aerial geotourism includes various aspects of tourism, recreation, aesthetics, education, interpretation, understanding, geohistorical, and geoconservation by flying over geological landscapes in natural, urban, and rural areas. Due to the impressive growth of geotourism, the extraordinary advancement of the aviation industry, and the use of various flight vehicles, it is necessary to consider the potentials, strategies, and development plans of aerial geotourism. In this study, for the first time, aerial geotourism has been introduced as a new field of research and a new branch of geotourism through four examples in Iran, and both aerial and terrestrial field experiences. The first example (Lut Desert World Heritage) showed that aerial geotourism is practically carrying out, but only based on the recreation and landscape beauty, without knowledge of the geodiversity and geotourism. The second example was the Tehran-Qeshm flight route, which aircraft flying over diverse geomorphological landscapes, and due to the type of these travels and various restrictions, aerial geotourism cannot be proposed; however, it can be considered as a new product to provide more services to passengers by airlines. The third and fourth examples were the Damavand volcano and the Dasht-e Kavir desert, which, as representatives of other natural areas, showed great potential for the development of aerial geotourism. Eventually, aerial geotourism can play a key role in geoconservation and geoeducation through decreasing physical contact pressure on geosites and geomorphosites, and promoting the understanding of geodiversity. Nevertheless, there are many issues that need to be addressed by researchers for a successful aerial geotourism.
