Combine Your Flight with Wine Touring
A helicopter flight pairs perfectly with Barossa wine touring. Since you cannot drive after tasting, professional transport lets you enjoy both experiences fully. We coordinate your entire day—helipad delivery, post-flight winery visits, and return transport to Adelaide or your accommodation.
This combination is popular with visitors who want to experience the Barossa from above and then explore it at ground level. Your driver knows the region and can recommend wineries based on your preferences—whether you favour bold Shiraz, elegant Riesling, or want to visit historic cellar doors.
