Experience the best Scenic Flights & Helicopter Tours
Helicopter, light aircraft, hot air balloon – there is no shortage of scenic flight options for those who want to take to the skies and see some of the best spectacles in both Australia and New Zealand from the best possible vantage point. Scenic flights will take you above and beyond the usual tourist sightseeing routes to garner an experience up close; helicopter pilots in particular are typically trained to swoop you in for close-up views; gaze down into the waters of the Great Barrier Reef and see the coral and fish through the glasslike surface, soar through the alpine peaks of New Zealand's magnificent Milford Sound, or perform multiple stunts and loops over the golden beaches of the Gold Coast aboard an authentic tiger moth – the choices are numerous and always impressive.
Be sure to bring your camera and always keep your eyes peeled when on a scenic flight; the imagery and memories you'll come away with from the experience will stay with you for a long time. Browse our range of scenic flight options in both Australia and New Zealand below and soar above some of the best scenery the Oceania region has to offer!
