FANTASTIC OPPORTUNITY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED - Fantastic views and a really engaging and professional pilot. The 20 minutes went so quickly and we enjoyed EVERY minute. Well worth the trek from Kingston. The lady in the office area was an excellent communicator and very friendly.

Whirlybird WOWS! - Such an amazing experience! From the moment you drive up to the helipad to final touchdown, every minute was full of excitement and smiles. Captain George shared tonnes of information about the Islands, Boldt Castle and the region. Totally recommend to anyone!

A breathtaking view - With a sympathetic pilot, on a sunny morning (11:30am) we enjoyed the view of the beautiful island landscape! Since we also took a boat tour to the island later, I can say that the helicopter perspective remains unforgettable and unique. A clear recommendation from us

Wow!!! - Boldt castle and it's island are stunningly beautiful and well maintained. The paths are well maintained with lovely flowers and manicured grass everywhere. The docents are informative and happy to share about the house and grounds. The work that has gone into restoring the buildings is impressive in both scope and quality. They have golf carts if you can't walk to the castle and also there is an elevator inside (part of the original design which is amazing for when it was built). Make sure to go to the 5th floor balcony and look out over the river and grounds.
