Exciting and wonderful ride, with excellent professional staff - It was our last day in Sydney after a fabulous holiday from the UK. This ride was the icing on the cake, a wonderful way to see Sydney from the skies and say goodbye. The staff were professional, friendly and understanding, with pick up and drop off at our hotel at the end as the heavens opened after we landed. We felt very safe at all times. We were blessed and very lucky to be able to enjoy the last flight that day. A fantastic experience, would highly recommend. Many thanks!

Impossibly perfect helicopter ride - When I went on this flight, I was 65 years old and had never flown in a helicopter in my life. Boy, did I ever pick a perfect first flight. The weather conditions were ideal, I got the front seat next to the pilot and I had a great phone camera and came away with amazing shots and video. I cannot recommend this enough - even the cost is incredibly less than I would have guessed. Sydney Harbor has to be one of the top 3 places in the world to have a helicopter ride. I will go again when I next reurn to Sydney. And Yhe pilot was excellent (not sure I can give names).

Great way to see the sights - Fabulous air sight seeing tour of Sydney. A real special treat to celebrate a special birthday. Twenty minutes lasted a surprisingly long time - enough to see all the harbour and beaches and city. Just a wonderful experience
