Very happy with the total experience 😀😀 Our pilot Harry, very professional in all aspects, probably the smoothest flight I've had, If you are wanting to get good footage, my suggestion is to be quick with the click... A very memorable flight.
Thank you so much guys, I really enjoyed

It is fabulous! From pick up to drop off, everything was explained and was very organised. The weigh in and the safety briefing happened just after arriving. The pilot was knowledgeable and the views were breath taking !

This was our first-ever helicopter experience, and it was absolutely incredible! My husband, teenage son, and I were originally scheduled to fly the day before, but our flight was canceled due to an incoming storm. In hindsight, we were so grateful for that decision - the weather the following day was perfect! We were pleasantly surprised with a complimentary private flight for the three of us, which made the experience even more special. Our pilot, Johnny, was very professional, friendly and reassuring. Even my husband, who is afraid of heights, felt completely at ease and ended up loving the flight. Seeing Sydney from above was unforgettable- the Opera House, the Harbour, and the stunning coastline (Bondi and Coogee beaches) were breathtaking. A huge thank you to the wonderful staff, especially Peter, who went above and beyond by picking us up (twice!) from the meeting point and dropping us off near our hotel so we could catch our flight back to Melbourne on the same day. An amazing experience from start to finish, delivered by truly professional and caring staff. Highly recommended 🚁✨🥳
Wonderful experience

This experience was great. I have never been on a helicopter before, but the staff took you through step by step instructions on what to do. And when you set off the amazing views over Sydney opera house and bondi beach was such a beautiful sit to see.
Treat yourself

Well worth the price, stunning views of the Harbour and the beaches. Apart from the obvious two landmarks which we all want to see, the natural beauty and splendour of the bays is a sight to see.
