- Craig C00Absolutely incredible experienceThe whole experience was simply incredible. Ed our pilot was so warm, welcoming and professional. Ed really did make us feel like the “VIP’s for the day and most of all gave us a lasting memory. Levantine Hill is definitely something to remember, incredible service, sensational food &The wine that was something else! I can not fault this whole experience, I feel very blessed to have had the opportunity to experience this. Thank you to everyone who was apart of this day.
- Ant697400Awesome experienceOrganised a 20min scenic flight over Melbourne, beaches and surrounds. Right from the booking experience, and communications I couldn’t fault them. The day of our flight, Ed our pilot was fantastic with in flight commentary and chatting to my family about scenery and the helicopter. We all loved the experience thanks to Ed and Rotor One.
- Y2453ZZrafaelp00An amazing, fast and confortable experienceWe had an amazing flight from Melbourne to 12 Apostles. Ed is a very competent and friendly pilot. We had a very safe flight. I think the best way to view the 12 apostles is from a helicopter. The tour is really worth it.
- LeslieMcC195800The quickest and most exciting way to visit the 12 apostlesWe can highly recommend rotor 1 for the perfect way to visit the 12 apostles and lunch at a winery on the way back. Michael and Ed made us feel very secure and explained so much about what we were seeing from the air. They are one of only 3 Melbourne companies with permission to land at 12 apostles visitor centre. Whole experience very professional and relaxed. Whilst it’s not for everyone’s budget I felt as a once in a lifetime experience it was worth every dollar. It’s the only way to avoid a 12-13 hour day trip by mini bus. Lunch booked at Jack rabbit vineyard with private helipad was also excellent and good value for money. We will be thinking about this perfect day for a long time to come. It was really beyond our budget but not as bad as in Europe for a such a long distance. Weather was perfect for us I don’t think they can fix the weather every time!
- Roam2822510517700Superb helitrip with Ed to the twelve apostelsThe heli trip from Melbourne to the twelve apostels is fantastic. We got a warm welcome by our pilot Ed. It all starts with a great view of the skyline of Melbourne. Then a trip of about one hour and fifteen minutes tot the apostels. During the flight, we got to know each other better and Ed is such a nice empathic guy with a wonderful story. He makes sure that one is in the best position to take pictures of the apostels. Afterwards Ed brought us to a vineyard with good food and a spectacular view on the vineyard, the bay and the skyline of Melbourne. This helitrip is value for money and Ed is the best compagnon one can imagine.
- EllaS120000Breathtaking!First time heli-flyer and it didn't take long for those nerves to change to excitement thanks to Eds encouragement! The views were stunning, all the way from the concrete jungle out to the green countryside. It was positively a flawless experience from start to end!
- rubykeeble0011/10!Thank you Ed! This was one of the most amazing things I've ever done. Went so smooth, was an absolutely stunning trip.
- 653charlottei00An amazing experience!We had such an amazing time flying out to the Yarra Valley - the ride was so smooth, and the view was beautiful. A big thank you to Ed who was a great pilot as well as an amazing host making us feel safe and comfortable for the entire ride - I highly recommend Ed and Rotor One!
- 213ebonyt00Best experience of my life!One of the most amazing experiences of my life! We flew through Yarra Valley and it was absolutely beautiful. Could not recommend Ed or this experience more!!
- Elika1600The perfect surprise giftMy partner and I can not recommend this experience enough, the whole day went above and beyond our expectations and it was the most magical way to spend a surprise birthday. Our pilot Edward was very friendly and accomodating throughout the whole day, he helped calm our nerves flying and was extremely knowledgeable when answering all our questions about the helicopter, landmarks and the winery. If we thought our pilot couldn’t get any better, he even captured our special moments taking spontaneous photos of us and created a polaroid to gift us. The Levantine Hill Winery Lunch was an exceptional dining experience, the food was delicious and the staff was extremely accomodating to my nut allergy by providing a seperate menu. Overall it was an amazing experience and we will definitely be back again!
- cassdeegan00An absolute dream!!Ed made my first time in a helicopter an absolute dream!! The ride was super smooth and Ed made sure we knew what was going on throughout the ride. Thank you Ed - was on cloud 9 after our ride and was a massive tick off my bucket list.
- StuMacplus300All boxes tickedGreat trip, around the city and out to the Yarra Valley was perfect. Ed was such a great pilot but an even better host. Could not recommend him and Rotor-one any more.
- Roving4176996485700Amazing experienceOur flight was wonderful, the scenery beautiful and Ed our pilot a terrific host. We were booked for a Wednesday, however as the weather (in true Melbourne style) was forecast to be awful- Ed contacted us on Monday and offered to bring the flight forward to Tuesday and we enjoyed a gorgeous sunny day flight. The reschedule meant we couldn’t go to the winery, however Ed put together a gourmet picnic hamper for us and we enjoyed that on the beach instead which was really lovely . A great way to mark my 50th birthday and tick off a bucket list item.
- emmajdowling9600Amazing experience best way to see 12 apostles from MelbourneThe whole experience was amazing, we loved flying, the view of Melbourne city, Flemington, Bay of islands, London bridge, the arch and 12 apostles! Our pilot Edward was fun, informative and went above and beyond. It was for our honeymoon so we added landing at a winery for lunch. The food at Terindah Estate was so good. Would definitely recommend to everyone such a memorable experience!!
- Isuru P00Flyyyyy away with LYOOmg!! my first ever helicopter ride and it was the best I could ask. Ed made me feel so comfortable pre flight and on flight especially I have a fear of heights. We live streamed the ride too and it was so cool how my camera was a apple TV for a the trip. Ed has so much knowledge and passion and answered all my silly questions about clouds to turbulence to live streaming. Definitely will be back for another trip. The best part was definitely take off and landing at the winery in royal style.

This was a surprise gift for my daughter that lives in Melbourne. It was such a success, that we couldn't stop talking about it for days. Circling the MCG while there was a game going on was the highlight for me. I think my daughter like getting a close view of her apartment. Ed was extremely knowledgeable and made the trip super interesting. We took up the offer of the extended trip, and it was brilliant. I cannot recommend this company and this excursion enough. My daughter says it was by far the best thing she has ever done in Melbourne. Thank you Ed, it was fantastic. Clive

Ed was a treat. The whole experience was something I’d recommend to anyone. As someone who is scared of heights, I was reassured and also felt comfortable throughout the duration of the flight. Will be back again!
