Barossa Valley Deluxe: 30-Minute Helicopter Flight
Description
Lifting off from the heli-pad in the Hoffnungsthal Valley, enjoy flying past Lyndoch before tracking along the western ridge of the Barossa to Historic Seppeltsfield. Here you will see vineyards contouring the rolling hills, palm tree studded roads. From there you will fly over Maggie Beer’s farm and the famous Penfold’s Winery before veering along the eastern side of Nuriootpa, around the Wolf Blass winery, and then the view of large limestone quarry near the town of Angaston. A little further on you will get a bird’s eye view of one of the most beautiful horse racing studs in south Australia. As you descend into the valley towards Tanunda, your pilot will point out some of the historic buildings and settlements like Chateau Tanunda and Bethany. Beyond Tanunda is home of Jacobs Creek. From there we take you to the southern end of the Barossa, past Lyndoch, over the Barossa Goldfields and the Whispering Wall (the Barossa reservoir) before finally returning to the Hoffnungsthal Valley.

Absolutely fantastic. It was my adult daughter’s first time in a helicopter (she was a bit nervous) & our wonderful pilot made her feel at ease. Beautiful views of the Barossa. All the staff are very welcoming. We highly recommend this company.

My mum recently turned 90. She didn’t want presents but as she’d always wanted to go up in a helicopter, we decided to contact Barossa Helicopters & organise a 30 minute flight. The staff were so helpful & considerate. The flight was amazing. The look of joy & wonder on mum’s face when we landed was priceless. Would definitely recommend this experience to anyone who’s considering a helicopter flight over the stunning Barossa Valley
Reading your review just made my day. There is nothing more we love than helping someone achieve a long time dream and they love it! Thank you for your kind review! :)
Perfect flight for Dad's 80th Birthday and his first helicopter experience. Nick, our pilot shared his knowledge of the Barossa and surrounding area and super special was flying over Dad's house in Nuriootpa. View was amazing and a beautiful time of year to see the Barossa from the air. Noted a few extra wineries to visit afterwards. Thank you Barossa Helicopters for creating a special memory for Dad, my brother & me!
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your wonderful experience with us! We are so happy to hear that your Dad's 80th birthday helicopter flight was a perfect and memorable occasion for everyone involved. We are proud to have Nick on our team! Flying over your Dad's house in Nuriootpa must have been an incredibly special moment. The aerial view of the Barossa is truly breathtaking, especially during this beautiful time of year. We're glad you had the opportunity to witness the stunning scenery from above. It's fantastic to hear that you also spotted a few additional wineries to visit afterward. We hope those visits were just as enjoyable as the helicopter flight itself. Creating special memories is what we strive for, and we're overjoyed to have played a part in making your Dad's 80th birthday celebration a memorable one. It was a pleasure to have you, your brother, and your Dad on board with us, and we sincerely appreciate your kind words. Once again, thank you for choosing Barossa Helicopters.
My partner and I went on this flight on the 29/10/2022 which was a surprise anniversary gift for my partner, Josh. We had West fly us around and he was absolutely amazing! Definitely made our trip better having him show us around. Will 110% be doing this trip again with West flying us. Thank you again guys! ❤️
West is great isn't he!?! We look forward to seeing you again one day! Thank you!!
This was an amazing way to see the region and a really worthwhile experience. I was pretty scared but the flight was enjoyable and I felt safe. Our pilot gave a great tour of the region and pointed out various landmarks and locations, he also answered our questions well. I’d highly recommend this experience and am really glad we went for the longer but time so we could see as much as possible
