Additional Information

🚁 What to expect

What to expect - The ultimate helicopter winery tour in the Yarra Valley wine region

Experience a 25 minute scenic helicopter flight from Melbourne to the Hubert Estate winery. The scenic helicopter flight from Melbourne is a serene experience. You'll float past the Dandenong Ranges and over the lush green landscape of the Yarra Valley. These vineyards have been producing some of the best wine in the world for over a 100 years.

1st Stop: Wine Tasting at St Hubert's Cellar Door

Upon landing at the private helipad nestled amongst the vines at Hubert Estate, take a short stroll to Hubert Estate's state-of-the-art cellar door which emerges from a hillside on the property, and is quite possibly the most recognisable piece of architecture in the Yarra Valley.

Enjoy a luxurious wine tasting experience of up to 8 wines by the glass across the range including The Stag Victoria Pinot Noir, the St Hubert’s Chardonnay and the St Hubert’s Blanc de Noir. As our special guest you'll also be treated to a light cheese platter to accompany your wine tour.

2nd Stop: Winery Lunch at Quarters Restaurant

When your wine tasting has come to a close, your reserved table at Quarters restaurant will become available for you to enjoy your delicious, gourmet winery lunch. Your winery lunch experience will include dishes from an Australian-European tasting menu designed by Head Chef, Michael Smith.

Think hearty vegetable dishes with local meat and fresh seafood produce, wood-fired pizzas made from an Italian Marana pizza oven and fresh pasta that is hand-made on site. This is a winery lunch menu that the founder, Charles Hubert de Castella, would definitely approve of.

3rd Stop: Visit Hubert Estate's indigenous Art Gallery

Following your gourmet lunch, take a short-walk and explore Hubert Estate's very own art gallery. Learn the stories behind the artwork from over 20 indigenous artists around Australia including Polly Ngale and Yannima Tommy Watson.

Your day ends with return helicopter charter flights where you'll soak in dreamy afternoon views of the best wine region in Victoria as you're whisked back to Melbourne in your private helicopter.

📍 About the destination

History - St Hubert's wine-making legacy transformed into Yarra Valley's newest cellar door and winery restaurant

Founded by Charles Hubert de Castella in 1862, Hubert Estate is one the oldest wineries in the Yarra Valley. St Hubert was a champion of the Yarra Valley wine renaissance in the 1960’s and helped position the wine region as one of the most popular wine destinations in the world. This legendary Yarra Valley institution has a 100 year history of producing amazing cool climate wines. These wine blends include Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Roussanne under the famous St Hubert's The Stag brand.

Hubert Estate went through a recent design-led renovation by the father-son duo Gerry & Andy Ryan. They've added a beautiful modern touch to the 100 year old winery heritage at St Hubert’s Estate. The winery has a brand new fine-dining restaurant Quarters, a state-of-the-art cellar door featuring St Hubert's The Stag wine blends and an art gallery housing Gerry Ryan's treasured collection of aboriginal art.

“Established in 1862 as one of the first wineries in Victoria’s Yarra Valley, St Hubert's has a long history of producing outstanding Cabernet Sauvignon. Today it continues to be lauded for its portfolio of cool climate wines which also include Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Roussanne”

- Greg Jarratt (Winemaker at Hubert Estate)

🎟️ Important Booking Information

Where are you located?

Your flight will depart from Essendon Airport which is 20 minutes from Melbourne CBD by car. Your departure point will either be Hangar 7 Wirraway Rd, Essendon Fields or the Essendon Passenger Terminal depending on your flight. Please refer to your booking confirmation email for your departure location. Both locations have off-street parking available.

When should I arrive?

Please arrive 10 minutes before your booking begins for a relaxed experience.

Why do I need to provide my weight?

We use this to calculate the weight and balance of the helicopter prior to flight. If any guests:

  • individually weigh more than 130kg (300lb), or
  • a group of 2 or 3 weighs more than 240kg (530lb), or 
  • a group of 4 weights more than 320kg (700lb) 

Please contact us prior to booking as we may need to upgrade you to a larger helicopter for safety reasons. Helicopters seats are specially designed to absorb energy in the unlikely event of a hard landing, so we're required by Australian Aviation Law to enforce strict per seat and collective weight limits so all passengers remain safe.

Can bad weather prevent us from flying?

Yes, adverse weather conditions such as low cloud, fog, heavy rain or high winds may require your flight to be delayed or rescheduled. If this is the case, your pilot will contact you at least 2 hours prior to your booking time to reschedule your flight. If your flight cannot go ahead due to bad weather and you wish to cancel, we'll provide a full refund minus any credit card processing fees we've paid on your behalf.

Google says there's will be bad weather on the day. Should I reschedule?

There's no need to contact us to reschedule based on a weather forecast as they're often inaccurate! We use live weather data on the day of your flight to determine if flights can be conducted safely.

What is the minimum age requirement for children?

Children aged 5 years or older can occupy their own seat. Our pilots will give them special attention to ensure they have an amazing time. All children will have their own window seat and pay the same seat price (we don't offer discounts for children as we make sure they have even more fun than the adults 😁)

Can I use my camera or phone during flight?

Yes, we encourage you to take as many photos and videos on the ground, and in the air, as possible.

What should I wear?

Please bring a pair of sunglasses and you're welcome to wear clothing appropriate to the weather. We do recommend a wind-breaker jacket on cooler or windy days to keep your warm.

Can I bring any luggage?

Light handbags and small backpacks weighing less than 10kg can be carried in the aircraft. Large luggage or any items you do not wish to take on our flight can be safely stored in our guest lounge.

Can I fly if I'm pregnant?

Yes, and we recommend flying prior to your third trimester.

Can I fly if I'm in a wheelchair?

Yes, our hangar is wheelchair-accessible and we warmly welcome passengers with special needs, as long as a carer accompanies them on their flight. Please contact us if you have any questions.

Do you provide a wheelchair for disabled passengers?

We partner with Fisher Lane Mobility (www.fisherlane.com.au) in Melbourne, which provides wheelchair rental as well as delivery and pickup services from our hangar. Wheelchairs can only be carried in larger aircraft suitable for 4 or more passengers as they include a cargo hold. We would be happy to arrange a suitable wheelchair for your planned date of travel.

What is your cancellation policy?

Please see our Bad Weather & Booking Changes Policy below for more information.

    Birthday Celebration at Hubert Estate via Helicopter with Rotor One

    I bought a helicopter ride to St Huberts estate for my partners 50th and everything was perfect. Rick our pilot was a super nice guy and put us at ease with his friendly personality and skill at flying. When we arrived at St Huberts we couldn't have felt more welcome. The wine tasting with cheese was an experience in itself. Followed by a delicious lunch with soooo much food. Every person across the day made it feel really special. We’re now planning to do this with a group of friends in the near future. Thanks to Rotor One team, Rick and everyone at St Huberts. Awesome experience

    We had the pleasure of flying with Ed out to Hubert Estate winery for a wine tasting and lunch this weekend.
    From the moment we met Ed, he was very accomodating and gave us a tour of the Hanger, as well as took photos of us in front of the helicopter.
    We had the best time flying out to the winery and loved every second. On the way back, we were easily persuaded to take a longer route home, flying over St Kilda bay, Melbourne city and doing a lap of the MCG.
    We had the best day and could not recommend rotor one enough, and will definitely be back again!
    Thank you Ed for an unforgettable experience.

    Highly recommend. Ed was great and the ride to Hubert Estate was spectacular. The wine tasting and lunch were excellent. On the way back Ed took us over the city and out over the harbor where we got a birds eye view of our cruise ship. A tour not to be missed.

    Flyyyyy away with LYO

    Omg!! my first ever helicopter ride and it was the best I could ask. Ed made me feel so comfortable pre flight and on flight especially I have a fear of heights. We live streamed the ride too and it was so cool how my camera was an apple TV for the trip.

    Ed has so much knowledge and passion and answered all my silly questions from clouds to turbulence to live streaming. Definitely will be back for another trip. Highly recommend Rotor One as the best Heli ride.

    The best part was definitely take-off from winery and landing at the winery in royal style.

    Ed knows the best angles for your Instagram.

    Fantastic helicopter winery tour to Yarra Valley!

    What a spectacular afternoon in the Yarra Valley with Rotor One!! We flew by helicopter to the Yarra Valley to Hubert’s Estate Winery and it was fantastic. The food at Hubert’s Estate was delicious (definitely try the Octopus Skewers!) and the helicopter ride was very comfortable with amazing views. Can definitely recommend Rotor One if you’re considering a helicopter wine tour and can’t wait to fly with them again!!

    Hubert Estate Wine Heli Tour in Yarra Valley with Rotor One

    Great experience I can recommend to anyone who would like to gift a special memory! We celebrated my partners birthday with the "Hubert Estate Wine Tour in Yarra Valley". Our pilot John made us feel very safe. He shared some stories about the area we saw during our two approx. 30 mins flights to and back from the vineyard. The set lunch was very tasty, as well as the 11 wines we tasted. Last but not least, we could chose 2 bottles to take with us as memory. Next to that, the communication with Rotor One through WhatsApp was very efficient and helpful!
