Seeing the Great Barrier Reef from the air was absolutely breathtaking. The views were stunning the entire time – crystal-clear water, amazing reef shapes, and so much more than you can see from a boat. Our pilot was friendly and informative, pointing out highlights as we flew. We enjoyed every minute – such a special way to experience the reef. Highly recommend!
Incredible views of the Great Barrier Reef. The pilot, Daniel was super professional, informative and friendly. Small intimate tours. Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Great to book in, but thought we were getting a helicopter ride as that is what I googled. Happy with plane ride though. Maybe make it more clear. Thank you
This experience was AMAZING ! The guy who explained the safety rules was very funny and the pilotes were nice and professional. We really enjoy our flight and the view was just perfect ! Thank you for everything

Just stunning
I was absolutely in awe all the way through my flight, the views were unreal! All the staff were very friendly and our pilot Cameron was great, pointing out everything we could see as we flew over the reef. 100% recommend, the best way to see the reef!
