Fabulous experience - A fabulous way to see the Sydney Bridge, Opera House, Bondi Beach and so much more. Trip was so smooth and enjoyable. Our pilot was excellent with all the information provided. Personally, I would do this rather than the Sydney Bridge Climb. Better value and better views. I liked the free return shuttle to Circular Quay area

A must do for Sydney - Stunning flight, very professionally run, from pick-up to drop-off. A unique perspective of Sydney, and way better than any of the cruises. Great pilot and support team. Very friendly and accommodating.

Head above the clouds fun! - Such a smooth and wonderful journey. I was a bit nervous as it was my first time on a helicopter and I could not have enjoyed it more or felt safer and more relaxed. It was an amazing way to view the City and I highly recommend this experience.
