    It was an amazing experience - even if you've flown countless times (in an airplane) the experience in a helicopter is just unique. And the views are well worth it - will definitely recommend this to others!

    I would highly recommended this experience. The helicopter pilot was very professional and provided an interesting commentary while flying. From views in the air I learned things about Melbourne that I didn't know, had an experience I wanted to do, and made the most of the price offered by RedBalloon. Also an excellent choice if you don't have the time to commit to an all day experience.

    I had a sensational experience. All the information necessary was provided in the voucher, except, perhaps, how early to arrive. As it turned out preparing us for our flight happened very quickly and we departed on time - or maybe even a little early because we were all ready. So easy and so enjoyable!

    The helicopter flight over Melbourne was awesome,to see the city and surrounding areas was so very much different than i thought it would be,to see these areas from the air and not just as buildings and places that you would normally drive past,that may look to be plain and dull was very much a real buzz for me.the view from the air gave me an insight too a different beauty and peaceful look at our great city.

    I did the helicopter ride over the city and it was simply amazing! It was a really relaxed atmosphere and friendly with the organizers, the experience itself was smooth and exciting as we went round the city twice. In fact it was so good, the 18-20 minutes didn't fell like it was enough! I'd go again.

A wonderful experience and break from normality and a great way to see the City, at the speed we traveled you could hold position long enough to dwell on areas of personal interest, workplace, wedding place, favourite spots etc. The cost wasn't prohibitive at all, we'll do it again one day and we've already circulated aerial photo's to friends and workmates with your website details and a recommendation to give it a burl :-) Thanks Guys ...
