What an amazing experience! Once in a lifetime. While riding the Hop on - Hop off bus around the island, the driver recommended us to stop by the airfield, which I did. Without any reservation, I was able to get on a ride around the island which lasted around 20-25 minutes. The pilot was sharing the history behind the island and lots of fun facts. The view from up there was truly magical. It was beautiful and clear sunny day. The price was around 169$/per person. Bear in mind, it’s two passengers minimum. If like me you are alone, you’ll need to pay twice the price. Definitely recommend it 100%! You get to see the island from another prospective
Enjoy a breathtaking 30 mins scenic flight over the beautiful Waiheke Island. Marvel at stunning views that are truly worth every penny! p/s For solo traveller, please arrange your trip at the 360fullers counter located at the Auckland Ferry Terminal!
Because of the poor weather in the morning, our planned flight was moved to the late afternoon. We received a phone call to confirm a suitable time and venue. Our pilot, Mark, was cheerful and reassuring my wife was an extremely nervous flyer. The flight was amazing- one of the highlights of our whole holiday a round the world trip. Mark pointed out the highlights and gave us some background information on what we could see. We loved every moment of it. We cannot recommend this flight highly enough, or Mark as a pilot.
I was fortunate to have been gifted this Waihekei wine and flight experience. Our flight had been changed last minute due to weather conditions, Yash Kept us updated every step of the way.The Batch winery from the wine tasting to the 3 course lunch was spectacular in everyway. The airport was a two minute walk,very convenient. I am a nervous flyer at the best of times,but out pilot made me feel extremely comfortable and relaxed. I highly recommend to anyone wanting to experience the best of Auckland views Waihekei and the hauraki gulf has to offer. Our Pilot dropped us off at Ardmore which was a 10min drive from our neighborhood ,then offered to drive us home. We were impressed with the level of service and care everyone took to ensure we had the best time. Thank you so much!
My wife and I went on this scenic flight for our 6th wedding anniversary. It was Beautiful and and informative. Will come back again soon. Thank you guys!
Really enjoyed our flight with Mark - saw sights of the island that we would have otherwise missed. Very professional and courteous throughout our trip and felt really safe during our flight
Two weeks ago we went on the most amazing scenic flight around our beautiful Waiheke Island. Our pilot, Hobby, was the best! HIs commentary was prefect, and as locals we learnt even more about our island. We love that he did a loop over our home! The whole flight from take-off to landing was pure magic, and we recommend this as one of the best ever things to do on Waiheke Island. Having a video of the whole flight is great and was an unexpected bonus. This was a birthday present for my husband, and he just loved every minute of it. Last, I used to fly small planes, so I was unsure of how it would feel not to be in the pilot's seat. Hobby was so brilliant that I almost wanted to go back to flying!
One of our best experience in Waiheke island. All staff were really nice and friendly. Pilot will introduce the different scenic spots and island throughout the flight. Will definitely recommend friends and family here.
Excellent team and pilot and customer service! Was so accommodating for us when we booked the fullers air sea land tour. We were supposed to book everything in advance, however rocking up to the island on the same day we made the booking, this company and their team slotted us in and gave me and my fiance an excellent tour of the island. Massive props to the way they handled last minute 'tourists' rocking up. Thanks again guys
Had an island buzz with Hobby on 29 February. fabulous flight and commentary. the best experience since watching the sun rise over the Atlas Mountains in Morocco from a hot air balloon. Can thoroughly recommend this adventure.
