I am just writing to thank-you for the amazing tour my husband and I took on Saturday.  Luke was very surprised, and excited when the time came that I told him how we would celebrate his birthday and the experience was as sensational, if not more so, than what we had envisioned.

I would like also to compliment you on your staff  – David was lovely, very gentelmanly (opening and closing doors for me – very polite – Hahahaha), engaging and easy to talk to. Josh was an excellent guide and pilot, pointing out all of the landmarks of Melbourne as we flew above.  It was ABSOLUTELY EXCEPTIONAL!  A definite highlight, though maybe not for others, was seeing the Cerberus shipwreck.  Neither Luke or I had ever seen a shipwreck, and to have seen one for the first time from that view was wonderful.

I am actually quite affraid of heights, pathologically so, and was quite nervous boarding the helicopter, but I found Josh’s verbalising any changes, turns, shifts, etc, and confidence in operating the helicopter a tremendous help in easing my anxieties.  It was great to be able to actually enjoy the flight, rather than fearing for my life for the time we were flying. Hahahaha…

My husband absolutely loved the tour, as did I and I have found not only your help, but the service of your entire company, your staff, and your contacts with Eureka Skydeck, absolutely fantastic. I really can not express to you just how outstanding I fell everyone has been in helping me organise this surprise for my husband.  We will most definitely recommend your services to all and any of our friends interesting in touring Melbourne by helicopter.

If there is anywhere (website, blog, online listing, etc) that you would like me to post a review on, please let me know – I would love to be able to something to repay all of your help and commend your service.

Thank-you again Darcy.  I will DEFINIETLY be utelising your services again.

With regards,

TENILLE ELLIS

One of the pilots favourite group activities is flying our clients up to Michael Watson’s Farm (seen above on the left), with stunning scenery of Victoria’s High Country. It’s always a great day out flying and riding.

The friendly local Horsemen/women and unique well thought out relaxing moments like this BBQ below ensure everyone is catered for.

the clients leave rave reviews and become repeat visitors, it really is a special moment that they take away with them, the high country hospitality is simply awesome.

Michael ensures there is always an authentic adventure experience involving the locals, horse trail riding, quad biking even Paintball if you are up to it! Customised Experiences is what Adventure Victoria is all about.

Michael runs Adventure Victoria as well as his own operation Watsons Mountain Country Trail Rides, he  is the leading voice in the North East Region of Victoria for Tourism excellence and highly respected in the Victorian Tourism Fraternity

All of us at Heli Experiences heartily recommend visiting his property and partaking in his unique rides in the High Country.

Heli Experiences can fly medium sized groups to this great destination.

All levels of horse skills are catered for and you are always fully escorted, leave the details to Michael, Adventure Victoria and Heli Experiences and simply sit back and enjoy the ride.

“Just a quick note to say thanks for a thoroughly memorable experience. I stopped over in Melbourne for a couple of days on the way back home to the UK after spending a month in New Zealand and my friend Debbie suggested a helicopter trip over Melbourne. Even though I have done helicopter flights before over cities, I hadn’t thought about the possibility of doing one over Melbourne. I’m so glad that I did – it was fantastic.  It was a lovely sunny afternoon and our pilot, Guy, did an excellent job with his  informative and entertaining commentary!  Debbie & her husband Mark, Melbournites both, really enjoyed it as well and had a whole new perspective on their city.”

Happy scenic helicopter customers

Hi Kyhala,

“I just wanted to say thankyou in regards to my father’s birthday
flight that you helped me with back in February of this year. My father really had a great time and still smiles when he talks about it. The weather was quite bad that day but you persevered with trying to make it happen for him and that was great. You and Heli Experiences should be very proud in the way the day was handled and the professionalism that you provided for us was amazing,something that really does lack in our society today. I have recommended you and Heli Experiences to other people as a result of that day. I have enclosed a photo of the day where we were standing in front of the helicopter you flew us around in and thought you might like to see it as you  were in the picture too.
Thankyou for a great time and hope to one day have you fly us around again.”

Heli Experiences had the pleasure of taking war veteran Mr James Robson up on a thrilling helicopter joy flight around Melbourne with his two sons to celebrate his 90th Birthday. keen to make his own way, Mr Robson duly told the loader (this blog writer) to leave him alone and boarded the helicopter like a pro! Must have been his many years experience in the air force! Thanks for flying with us Mr Robson, the flight made history for us as you are now officially the oldest passenger we have taken up around Melbourne in our helicopter joy flight. See picture below and group shot above.
