Once in a lifetime.

Truly exceptional and exquisite from start to finish. The helicopter company was super-friendly, responding to all my inquiries instantly. The helicopter facility at the airport is world-class. Our pilot Matt was friendly and masterful, and the vineyard experience (Greystone) was peerless including a delicious long lunch, epic scenery, and incredible wines. Wineries via helicopter: the only way to go :)

Garden city helicopters are the best!

Amazing experience Simply the best! Garden City Helicopters flight and vineyard lunch. Our pilot Matt was helpful, fun, kind and knowledgeable. The reception staff were amazing. The food and wine match at Terrace Edge was delicious and so was their olive oil. Lunch at Black Estate was yummy and their staff welcoming and friendly. I would recommend you allow the day and really relax and enjoy it. It’s too good to rush it. Wonderful for a special occasion or just treat yourself you will not regret...read more

My wife and I went to Black Estate Vineyard for a heli-lunch as a special occasion. Garden City Helicopters staff and our great pilot John looked after us fabulously well. The wines and food were awesome! Thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would highly recommend to anyone wanting something special to remember….well worth it and would do again in a heartbeat.

Wine and a thrill!

My husband arranged this as a birthday treat, I haven't stopped raving about it since! We departed from the gorgeous premises on Grays Road where we were luck enough to see the Westpac Rescue Helicopter depart as we arrived and headed to Pegasus winery for a delicious lunch and wine tasting. The flight was incredible, a perfect day and Juliet our pilot gave us a great aerial tour and commentary as well as making me feel really special (and not too old!). We highly recommend this as the perfect...read more
