We felt instantly safe and at ease with Jammie who was our pilot. The best part was there was no rush for time and they provided us with all the time for taking snaps. We were explained nicely on details along the trip.
Top flight - top team!

We absolutely loved our Helicopter Tour with Alex. We had never been in a helicopter before and he made us feel completely safe and secure. The views are to die for and I'm so beyond happy that we did this. Would 1000% do again.

The whole experience was amazing. We both suffer from motion sickness so we’re delighted that this was not a factor. Charles our pilot was fantastic, giving a running commentary through the whole trip. The absolute highlight though was flying over the harbour bridge. This was such an exhilarating experience, I would recommend to everyone.
