Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I have gifted 3 CBD flights with Microflite for my family members in 2022, for a total of 10 persons in total. Each and every flight was a superb experience for everyone. Communication with the office for booking and other queries was very professionally and pleasantly done. Every moment, from arrival at the terminal building, and the pilot's briefing was a pleasure. The flights from the Yarra pontoon though the CBD building, the flying over the Westgate bridge, the Yarra Mouth, Williamstown, plus the bayside down to St Kilda, Black Rock, then the MCG and Tennis centre sporting complex, other suburbs, and the final landing at the pontoon, were on all three occasions all that we could have asked for. Congratulations to Microflite for unforgettable experiences for my whole family.

We had the most beautiful pilot named Lance. We booked the helicopter ride as our son who is autistic LOVES Helicopters. This was his 21st Birthday present. We sat in the front, and our son was beyond thrilled. The admin ladies even sent a complimentary package of branded caps, lanyards and notepads. The flight was magical from start to finish. Thank you, Lance, and Microflite for making this such a memorable experience.

I can't thank Microflite enough for making a birthday gift from my fiancé one of the best experiences ever. Our flight was delayed because of low cloud at our intended destination and subsequently our restaurant booking was also cancelled (by the restaurant not Microflite). They worked tirelessly to find an alternative destination for us and thanks to all of their efforts we ended up having the best meal and experience at Jack Rabbit Vineyard on the Bellarine Peninsula.
I can't speak highly enough of the team. Helicopter charters aren't cheap but you definitely feel like its money well spent with Microflite.
Thanks guys, you're the best!

Great experience with Microflite. We only booked the day before our ride and the team were really accommodating with getting us booked in.
The helipad is set on the river in central Melbourne which makes it really easy to get to if you are staying in the city. We thoroughly enjoyed our 20 min ride over the city and the pilot did a great job of showing us the sights.

Our overall experience was excellent from time of booking through to the helicopter flight. Prior to the flight we were greeted with a relaxing glass of wine. The flight around Melbourne was most enjoyable and the pilot was absolutely brilliant providing us excellent commentary. And of course, who can pass up a flight in a comfortable red helicopter. We loved it.

This was my first time in a Helicopter flying across Melbourne. We booked the flight and lunch package which included, flight, winery tour, wine tasting and three course lunch at Yering Station. The day was absolute perfection from start to finish. The pre boarding experience, the friendly pilots, the experience at Yering, the food was all A+++++ a day we will never forget! Thank you Micro Flite team!

Our day started with a bumpy start as there was a system error which lost our booking! The team at Microflite were quick to fix the error and we were in the air in no time. The Helicopter took us to Yerling station where we had a 3 course meal and wine tasting. The whole day was enjoyable and I would highly recommend Microfite.

I organised a 'secret' flight for my family to celebrate our daughters 21st birthday, on her birthday. Jonathan and his team were outstanding in their detail, nothing was too much trouble and they were extremely professional.
We enjoyed champagne on arrival before flying down the coast to where my daughter patrols at our surf club (what a view!) and back to Jack Rabbit winery - there my wife and I got out and after lunch we put in my daughters best friends for the chopper flight back to Melbourne - they had an unforgettable experience together.
Our pilot AMY was fun and informative, and the ride was sensational. Highly recommend for a special day, and such an awesome way to see the city we know so well and area's we have travelled so often.

What an unreal experience taking off in this little Red Heli, from the banks of the Yarra river, up over the city, over our house even and out to the countryside, to be dropped off on a green lawn at Chateau Yering for a magnificent dining experience overlooking the Yarra Ranges. No better way to celebrate our very special anniversary. Thanks to to Teams at Microflite and Chateau Yering for an unforgettable experience

After a fantastic experience with 10 of my colleagues this was the second time I had arranged flights with them.
This time they helped my son and I to propose to his future wife onboard a Melbourne tour flight.
They suggested the beach to put a sign and even sent me a map with suggested letter sizes for “Will you marry me”
Just a fantastic bunch of people to deal with and what a great experience! Would always only recommend them so book now!
