The service from Justin was amazing - seamless pick up and drop off at the Airlie Marina and a thorough and reassuring safety briefing. It was all very smooth, and the views were just amazing. Warmly recommended.
Stunning...Do Not Miss This One!

If you're in the area, this is an amazing experience to be part of. Justin is a great guy, as is his Wife too. The tour really does showcase the best aerial views and was without doubt worth every penny. We were collected and returned to our Hotel in a timely manner. The aerial picture post card views are simply stunning and not to be missed. The ride was very smooth too, with only a minor bump here and there, but nothing to put anyone off. The Helicopter appears modern and clean and we were fully briefed prior to take off. Again...just try this trip out even if you have to make a few beer and wine sacrifices!!! 😃😂
Whitehaven beach from the air.... go by helicopter - you will not regret it!

After booking, the communication with Airlie Helicopters was first class. They arranged pick up from the hotel right on time. Darren was very friendly and informative. At the airfield Justin, the pilot went through safety procedures, took photos for us and got us ready to fly. We booked for just the two of us and it was a perfect experience. Justin provided an excellent commentary as we passed over some of the most spectacular scenery on the planet. I cannot think of anything that could have improved the overall experience...First class
