"We just can’t thank Sky High Helicopters enough for a great experience – it was simply FANTASTIC so memorable. After a tough last year we wanted to start this year off with a high and we certainly did. We’ve learnt how important it is to enjoy life while you can, to make the memories, to laugh, make the most of everyday. The helicopter flight was breathtaking, we got lots of excellent photos, the commentary was great, we got so close to the Bridge and the Opera House it was amazing and the tour of the beaches was just magical. Everything about the booking process was great, the efficient way it was processed, the lovely cuppa and tim tam we had and the really friendly team made it a fabulous experience. Thanks Chris, that’s an experience we would like to repeat. All the best and look forward to catching up soon when our son turns 18.

Thanks Sky High Helicopters,

A Helicopter flight over Sydney was always on my bucket list, so I arranged a trip for my family as a Xmas Present. (cheeky I know) It was just amazing!! Our pilot was very professional but at the same time very relaxed and friendly. The flight from start to finish was fantastic! Chris explained the flight in detail and made us feel very comfortable before we took off. We had awesome views of the Sydney Harbour Bridge and Opera House, Chris explained all the places we flew over.
Thanks again and happy new year.
Regards Lyn,Darryl and Ben Maiden Gully Bendigo Victoria.
The three of us went on the Sky High Helicopter flight down the Parramatta River to Sydney Harbour and back. We flew over Sydney Olympic Park past Breakfast Point, Gladesville Bridge, past Cockatoo Island, Goat Island, over the Harbour Bridge (at the same height as the flag on top of the bridge), past Circular Quay, Opera House, Fort Denison, around Rose Bay and return. Our pilot, Chris Knight, picked us up from Bankstown Train Station and took us back after the flight, it was great. We strongly recommend you find some friends and try it. Thanks again Chris.

I just wanted to say what a wonderful experience the helicopter flight was for my partner Norm and me. We really enjoyed ourselves. I would definitely recommend Sky High Helicopters to other people who are interested in taking a helicopter flight. Thanks for making my partner's birthday such a wonderful day.

A helicopter flight was always on my 'to do list' so I was very excited
when I was treated to a 'Sky High Helicopter' flight for my birthday
from my husband. It was just amazing!! Our pilot Chris was very
professional but at the same time very relaxed and friendly. The flight
from start to finish was fantastic! Chris explained the flight in detail
and made us feel very comfortable before we took off. We had awesome
views of the Sydney Harbour Bridge and Opera House, followed by a trip
up the Northern Beaches which was the most amazing scenery! Chris
explained all the places we flew over and obviously has done his
research, it is great to not only fly over this amazing scenery but to
learn about it too. Thank you so much 'Sky High Helicopters' (Chris),
we had such an amazing experience and I definitely won't be ticking a
helicopter flight off my 'to do' list because I will be going again for
sure! Definitely with 'Sky High Helicopters'!!

After looking at several companies I choose to fly with Sky High Helicopters. My pilot Chris was very professional and knew what he was doing. The flight was A M A Z I N G. Not only did I get a very nice flight over the city, but Chris also told me a lot about the different areas we flew over. He knows Sydney well. If you love taking pictures, amateur or professional, then a helicopter flight with Sky High Helicopters is a must!!! I sure did get my money's worth. Next time I fly in a helicopter over Sydney it will be with Sky High Helicopters. Thank you Chris!

I just wanted to thank Sky High Helicopters for its
awesome and fantastic service. I wanted to treat my boyfriend a nice and memorable birthday present, something
adventurous, exciting, breathtaking and unforgettable, so I've decided to go
ahead with a helicopter tour.
Having a headache going through a few different
helicopter tour companies with their different tour packages to different
places, checking out all the different prices and restaurants, thinking which ones
would be good, I googled 'helicopter tours in Sydney' one last time and 'Sky
High Helicopters' came out right at the top. I've been googling for this
recently, but never saw this company appearing at the top of the list on
google.
I gave Sky High Helicopters a call and Chris answered
my call himself. I was interested & enquiring about the Blue Mountain tour, with the option
to land and have lunch at the Fairmont Resort. After the call, not only I was interested with the price of the tour...(it's very
affordable compared to others!) but I was most impressed with his friendliness
and his customer service, and also the information that Chris gave, such as the
things that we could do when we land.
I thought to myself ...Wow, this is really good, I
had a good feeling immediately & I felt really comfortable. I was very
excited I couldn't wait! I stopped looking and/or comparing other helicopter tour companies, and I've
decided to go ahead with Sky High Helicopters. I thought to myself I made the
right choice!
Chris helped me a lot right from the start, from
booking a table for 2 at the restaurant, sending me the lunch menu, organising
a chauffeur service for us, as per my request. What a really good hospitality and awesome customer service that he provided! I
couldn't ask for anything more, he kept me in the touch with the weather forecasts a few days before, confirmed
the table and the chauffeur who would be picking us on the day.
When we arrived at the Bankstown Heliport, Chris personally came out to greet
and welcome us, giving us an introduction, explaining about the flight path that we'll
go through, what to see and expect, flight safety, and a little info about the
helicopter.
Overall it was a very enjoyable, relaxing and
unforgettable flight. Despite the rain that started drizzling down before we
took off from the resort, Chris managed to fly us safely back to the heliport.
Chris's professionalism, friendliness, knowledge and service made us very
comfortable. He brought us to have an 'up close and personal' view of the major
attractions, like The 3 sisters and The Warragamba Dam. He also accompanied us
to the restaurant, making sure that we were looked after by them. We really had
a lovely meal. The food was superb and the staff were friendly and the view looking
out the window was awesome! Oh wow, what a day to remember! What a quick nice 'personal' way to get up to
the top of the Blue Mountains!
Thank you once again, Sky High Helicopters! It was
such a memorable experience for Paul and I!
I am so impressed and satisfied. We love your
service, the flight, the view & the journey! Everything was so smooth
and perfect from start to the end!
Thanks again Sky High Helicopters for a fantastic helicopter flight last Friday. Miro loved every bit of it..... from the detailed technical explanations of the helicopter through to being able to sight all of Sydney's iconic attractions within 30 minutes! Whether local or not, I have no doubt this is the perfect way to experience the sites of Sydney. Your exceptional service made our experience complete. Thankyou!

“Thank you Sky High Helicopters for a fantastic day. Chris was an
excellent pilot and an excellent host. He kept in contact with us in the days
before our trip informing us about the weather forecasts and the implications
for the flight. On the day of the flight he made us feel really welcome, really
comfortable and he explained everything regarding flying in a helicopter, our
flight plan and the weather. The flight was tremendous; Chris pointed out a
range of landmarks and explained everything flying related. The meal at the
winery was superb and even though we had to leave a little early because of
impending stormy weather, we had an excellent smooth flight home thanks to
Chris’ flying and navigation skills. All in all we had a truly fantastic
experience.”

"It seems like an age since our helicopter flight over Sydney Harbour last Sunday, but memories of the amazing experience are still very much with me. My only regret was that the experience was over far too quickly. I was surprised by the differences with fixed wing flight, especially the lightness of the aircraft and the low altitude at which we flew, but this just added to the fun and the excitement allowing me to sit back knowing that I was in safe and capable hands. So thank you for granting me a wonderful morning, and for providing some excellent memories of my short trip to Australia."

"My wife and I decided to treat ourselves to something totally different – a helicopter ride. This was something neither of us had done before and the prospect of flying over our home city had been one of those things on our “to do list”. We decided to go with Sky High Helicopters as they covered the sights we wanted to see and were very competitively priced. ! I admit I was little nervous to start with but nerves soon gave way to sheer delight and almost euphoria as we zoomed up the Parramatta River looking at all the mansions on Woolwich peninsula and then close enough to exchange waves with the harbour bridge walkers!! Capt Apps was very professional and likeable, talking us through the sights, filling us in with extra stories about certain landmarks we flew over. After widing our way up the harbour we took a turn to the left and up the northern beaches…what and experience it was to be flying just out from the breakers not far above the water passed place we had been swimming at for years but had never seen from this angle! It was a smooth yet exhilirating ride which by now we could not get enough of. We touched down near Erina, on the Central Coast, and felt like royalty being picked up by a restaurant shuttle bus, and escorted to the fine dining at Cowrie, Terrigal. The lunch was delicious, and view over the coast spectacular. Capt Apps was there at the helicopter to take us back to Sydney, and we could chose our course home, either over the coast, or inland over KuRing-Gai Chase National Park and the west side of the Harbour Bridge. I would thoroughly recommend flying with Sky High Helicopters for a wonderful helicopter experience! It is a memory we will both treasure forever."

"Exhilarating
and breath-taking views of Sydney complimented with a professional,
friendly and knowledgeable service made our day an unforgettable
experience."
Bunn and Sophie Tea
On a recent short trip to Sydney, we decided to spoil ourselves for the day by taking a helicopter flight with Sky High Helicopters. The entire flight was absolutely exihilerating from take off to landing. We thoroughly enjoyed the breath-taking scenery of Sydney Harbour and the beautiful coastline beyond. In perfect conditions, we flew right over the magnificent Harbour Bridge and the Opera House, with a bird's eye view of the entire city.
We flew right along the harbour to the ocean, followed the beautiful beach front up the coast, then continued across land to the Hunter Valley, landing at Robert's Restaurant for lunch in the sunshine between the vines. After lunch we strolled across to the neighbouring Pepper Tree winery to taste the finest of the local wines. The meal was fabulous, the wines superb, the scenery was lovely - but nothing beat strolling back to 'our' helicopter and lifting off for the homeward journey, to the amazement and waves of the scores of onlookers who watched our departure. We flew across land back to the harbour before following the shoreline back to the heliport, sneaking a peak at how the rich half lives - admiring the amazing water-frontage mansions of Sydney from the sky. A delightful day, a wonderful thrill and experience - one that we will certainly recommend to all those we meet !! Thank you for an incredible day and some unforgetable memories.
