A luxurious scenic helicopter flight over Sydney and up the coast, a private wine tasting at a winery in one of Australia's leading wine regions, the Hunter Valley, and a gourmet lunch - what an indulgent way to spend the day!
The journey into the Hunter Valley is absolutely breathtaking, your one-hour helicopter flight begins over Sydney Harbour before heading to the coastline and up to Palm Beach. As Pittwater emerges below, the flight heads inland to the Hawkesbury River and Brisbane Waters region before passing over the Central Coast to eventually land among the famed vineyards of the Hunter Valley, at the boutique Tower Estate Winery.
After landing, experience a private wine tasting before sitting down to a two-course gourmet lunch at a local restaurant before boarding the awaiting helicopter for your one-hour sightseeing flight back to Sydney.
The peaceful surrounds and genuine country hospitality of the Hunter Valley perfectly compliments the superb food and wine the area is renowned for.
All transfers are included, and you'll be picked up and dropped off from your centrally located Sydney hotel.
