Raelyn –

The driver who collected us from the city in his mini bus was really friendly and the pilot was really nice. He was informative in explaining the history of Sydney and in pointing out all the various landmarks. 20 minutes was a long time and we really enjoyed the experience, especially the initial take off. Well done guys, you made our day very special indeed.

Sydney HeliTours was responsive and professional while accommodating my schedule as a solo rider. Not only the people were super friendly, the views of the helicopter ride was breathtaking. I would highly recommend this unique experience to everyone!

Excellent tour, friendly and professional people making you safe and enjoy the trip. Safety was paramount, it was a 20 min trip but none of it was rushed, encouraged to take a few pics before enters the helicopter. Then a fantastic trip above all the buildings and over the bridge and along the coast coming back in and a soft landing. It was all relaxed snd friendly, dropped back off when ready into the city, and right where we wanted to be.
