    Fantastic views. Knowledgeable pilot giving narrative of area. Views from either side and riding up front with the pilot was awesome.

    So easy. Get picked up at the hotel and taken to the helipad. Given a safety talk and then sorted to balance the aircraft and have a photo in front the in we get and off we go to see these amazing rocks from a different view and see the vastness of the land.

    Fantastic views....

    A great way to get close to Kata Tjuta for those who can’t walk the trails

    To be able to see the top of Uluru from the air was great. Comfortable ride but very noisy so the commentary was difficult to hear. Wonderful to see the desert blooming after recent rains.

    Terrific, better than I thought it would be.

    Such a wonderful, unique experience! Got up close to Uluru and Kata Tjuta, a very different perspective. Everyone had a great view and chance to take some amazing photos. Everything ran smoothly from pick up to drop off. Totally professional tour.

    Stunning views of both rocks

    Travelled early afternoon on a perfect day. The views were absolutely stunning and could not have been obtained except from the air. As a result we collected many videos and photographs of professional calibre. This trip was the highlight of our 3 day stay in the area.

    Excellente. Nous avons adoré le vol et avons appris plusieurs choses.
