Our first ever experience on a helicopter ride and it was a wonderful experience. Our pilot as well as the staff were amazing and welcoming, explained everything in depth whilst making us feel very comfortable! Highly recommend flying with Rotor One.
It was our first helicopter ride and an amazing experience. Our pilot was awesome and very enthusiastic explaining every single detail of the ride. We definitely recommend going for coastal area rides! Makes the whole ride even more worth it!
Thank you! will defs come back!
We have just had the bay tour, just over an hour flying past the city and completely around the bay, what an experience. I would highly recommend Melbourne Heli for their professional approach, very clear and friendly instructions at the start and made us both feel very comfortable during the entire flight, amazing experience.

This was my first time flying in a helicopter and I was very excited and a little nervous. Our pilot was incredible, leading us through the whole experience, explaining how the helicopter worked and the safety which really reassured me. The flight around Melbourne and the bay views were stunning. Such a spectacular surprise date! Thank you for an amazing experience!
Bucket list ✔️. What an amazing experience with Rotor one. We choose a flight over the coastal waters of the Peninsula & it did not disappoint !
From the minute we met Ed I knew we were in good hands, not only is he knowledgeable but an all round great guy who loves sharing his passion of flying.
The scenic view from up above is like nothing I imagined, seeing some beautiful landmarks & even our own place was very special. The ride itself was smooth & relaxing… breathtaking in parts.

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.
