5.00We booked the 20 minute flight over the Hunter Valley Gardens and the experience was great. The pilot was friendly and professional and took his time to explain everything. Only caution for anyone booking this is that bad weather may result in cancellations as our booking had to moved to another day due to rain. Overall it was a fantastic experience and I would highly recommend.
Amazing views!

5.00Amazing tour giving you a stunning view of the Brokenback Range, the whole valley, the vineyards and some of the main attractions that you get a birds-eye-view of, like the Hunter Valley Gardens! I am not good with sudden drops but the pilot was flying so smoothly you couldn't tell we were going nearly 200kn/h! We got some great photos and videos of the valley and the pilot was very knowledgeable with telling us what we were looking at. Definitely recommend!
Great experience with family

5.00Easy to book a ride in this delightful chopper, it was my first trip in one! The pilot greeted us with smile and joke about flying. He was professional, confident and very knowledgeable about the area. He made us feel comfortable and made it one enjoyable experience. I can strike this one off my bucket list. Thank you HV!

5.00Great weather day with a clear blue sky and light winds so this ensured the excitement and expectations of a fun-filled helicopter flight. Our Pilot, Grayson was fantastic with so much information about the surrounding Hunter Valley below and the far-distance views were amazing. This was our second trip with Grayson and would recommend Hunter Valley Helicopters to everyone.
Amazingly fun day!

5.00The experience of a llfe time! It was so much fun. The only way to gain a better appreciation of the Hunter Valley is to view it from above. Our pilot was very experienced yet playful enough to enhance the whole experience. I would highly recommend H.V. Helicopters. A
