This was our first heliocopter ride and we are glad we experienced it. We were lucky to find the weather at the time of our tour was clear with excellent viewing conditions. For us, who had been in Sydney only 1.5 hours or so, it was a great introduction to the major areas and layout of the city, which helped us navigate the rest of our holiday. The tour was well-narrated and the ride felt safe. Note that little may be carried onto the heliocopter so that most belongings are left behind in the office, under the casual oversight of staff based there who organize participants arriving for the next tour. The tour organizers decide who shall sit where, so a single rider was the lucky assignee to the passenger seat in the front with the most unobstructed view. Might be worth contacting the tour operators to see if this is something you can arrange in advance if the view or recording opportunity is important to you. All in all, we are quite glad we did it.

They canceled my flight and didn't return my money as I allegedly weighed over 100 kilos and promised to return the money something they never did
