Description

See the Barossa Valley from a private helicopter, with only your group on board. Lift off from Barossa Helicopters in Lyndoch, on the family farm in the Hoffnungsthal Valley, and fly over Jacob's Creek at Rowland Flat, where tanks holding up to 1.4 million litres of wine sit among the vines. Track past St Hugo and over Lyndoch, then out to the Whispering Wall before heading home. Your pilot talks you through the landmarks as you fly, and every seat has a panoramic view. Before or after the flight, the crew takes your photo beside the helicopter on your own phone. One price covers your group of up to three. Choose 10, 15 or 20 minutes in the air. The 15-minute flight adds the South Para Reservoir and Williamstown. The 20-minute flight reaches Seppeltsfield and Tanunda. Barossa Helicopters is South Australia's longest-running helicopter company, flying the Barossa since the mid-1980s.

Definitely do this!

We loved every second. Our pilot Nick made us feel comfortable, reassuring us that it was perfect conditions for a helicopter flight! Taking off was exhilarating, and our whole flight was a wonderful experience. Nick pointed out some of the landmarks and chat with us throughout. Highly recommend!

I turned into a dragon fly!

I felt like I magically turned into a dragon fly! Me and my husband felt welcomed and looked after! No fear but only excitement! Amazing little flying machine gave us unforgettable experience!

Operator response

Thank you so much for this beautiful review — I absolutely love the dragonfly comparison! There’s something pretty special about lifting off and seeing the Barossa from above… it really does feel like you’ve transformed into something weightless and free. I’m so glad you and your husband felt welcomed, safe and completely looked after — that’s exactly how we want every guest to feel when they step into one of our “amazing little flying machines.” Excitement without fear is the perfect combination ✨ We’d be thrilled to have you back anytime for another adventure over the vines.
