Helicopter Winery Lunch at Terindah Estate on the Bellarine Peninsula
Overview - Wine Tour and Winery Lunch at Terindah Estate on the Bellarine
Terindah Estate is a boutique winery set on a 100-acre vineyard on the Bellarine Peninsula complete with a gourmet restaurant (The Shed @ Terindah), cellar door, wedding venue, glamping accommodation, private beach and tram bar (a bar built inside a restored Melbourne tram from the 1950’s).
With breathtaking views of Port Phillip Bay, the You Yangs Ranges and the Melbourne City skyline, Terindah Estate offers one of the most scenic wine tasting and winery lunch experiences on the Bellarine following a quick and spectacular 35 minute helicopter flight from Melbourne.
After purchasing Terindah Estate in 2000, owners Peter & Cate Slattery have evolved the winery to become a popular wedding venue, event space and weekend getaway destination with their innovative glamping tents accommodation, however they’ve also stayed true to their original vision to create the most beautiful food and wine destination on the Bellarine Peninsula.
The Shed @ Terindah - A Gourmet Winery Lunch Experience
After your helicopter makes a private landing at Terindah, you’ll be warmly welcomed at Terindah Estate’s signature restaurant, The Shed, offering beautiful views of Terindah’s vineyard from every table and a gourmet lunch menu curated by Executive Chef Russell Hall using local produce picked right from Terindah’s vegetable and herb gardens.
With an amazing gourmet lunch menu available à la carte, there are multiple highlights including the lamb rib with pistachio, salmon ceviche, pork belly infused with apple and local Portarlington mussels, which are caught just a stone’s throw away from Terindah’s restaurant.
You can choose to match your à la carte lunch menu with one of Terindah’s award-winning, estate-made wines including their Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, Rose, Zinfandel and Shiraz, all bottled between 2018 and 2021, or enjoy a dedicated wine tasting at Terindah’s Cellar Door with three white or red wines if you reach the conclusion that one glass of wine simply isn’t enough (we wouldn’t blame you!)
Terindah Estate - The perfect combination of wine and food with a view
Terindah Estate is truly an amazing destination for a winery lunch by helicopter and there are very few wineries offering a combination of spectacular water views and award-winning wines that are picked, bottled and served at Terindah’s own cellar door and matched to a delicious lunch menu with ingredients sourced right from the back garden and waters of Corio Bay.

🎟️ Important Booking Information
🎟️ 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 you have any guests weighing over 130kg (300lb) or a group of 2 or 3 guests weigh more than 240kg (530lb) combined, you may be required to upgrade to a larger helicopter for safety reasons.
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 2 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.

This was a surprise gift for my parents and they were completely blown away by the experience. Ed and the team were overly patient and generous with me as I bombarded them with annoying messages and requests in the lead up to the day, even changing the date last minute due to the weather. My father had been ill but I needn't have worried, Ed and the team couldn't have done a better job of looking after them. They both said it was one of the best days they have ever had and they wouldn't change a second. Holly was fantastic at Terindah too. Thank you again, absolutely first class.
What an amazing experience! Ed and his crew at Rotor One were very professional and made our experience most enjoyable. Likewise at Terindah, where Holly made our dining experience fantastic.
We truely loved the experience and highly recommend it to anyone who loves flying adventures and good food!

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.
