Having visited Noosa countless times before I’d never seen it from the air. So I arranged a tour to Fraser Island, the Everglades and back along the coast for a surprise gift for my Uncles 80th Birthday. From the very moment we met Morgan (our pilot) we instantly knew it was going to be a great day. What an about legend. His knowledge, passion and humour made the day and experience we will never forget. Flying back along the coastline we saw Sharks, Stingrays, multiple dolphins riding waves and two of the biggest whales I think I’ll ever see in real time in my life roaming free in their natural habitat (check out their Instagram to see it) finishing the tour along Noosa beach/Hastings st was great also then around Sunshine beach for a smooth touch down close to home at their airfield was genuinely one of the best experiences I’m ever likely to have while on holiday up here. I recommend anyone that wants to see the coast line from the air to book it. You absolutely will not regret it. Morgan you’re a brilliant pilot and tour guide. Thank you

What an amazing experience!! 🚁💯‼️ 🤯 Had the privilege of flying over Sydney 🇦🇺 👀🤙🏽 What a view from up so high. Thanks Rotor One and team for making the experience so exciting and being so accommodating on this trip! Will definitely be looking you up again when I’m in Melbourne for another amazing flight over a different city 🏙!! 😉🤯🚁💯‼️
Amazing experience. I flew my wife and daughter family around Sydney Harbour on a helicopter ride. I felt safe and comfortable in the air conditioned chopper. There was a short safety briefing at the start, and the highlight was definitely seeing Sydney from above.
It was a really great experience for both of us. Big thanks to Rotor One and Ed for making it one of the best memories of our lifetime.
