Private Barossa Valley Helicopter Flight: Jacob's Creek & Lyndoch
4.9 / 5 · 61 traveler reviews
See the Barossa Valley from a private helicopter, with only your group on board. Lift off from Barossa Helicopters in Lyndoch, on the family farm in the Hoffnungsthal Valley, and fly over Jacob's Creek at Rowland Flat, where tanks holding up to 1.4 million litres of wine sit among the vines. Track past St Hugo and over Lyndoch, then out to the Whispering Wall before heading home. Your pilot talks you through the landmarks as you fly, and every seat has a panoramic view. Before or after the flight, the crew takes your photo beside the helicopter on your own phone. One price covers your group of up to three. Choose 10, 15 or 20 minutes in the air. The 15-minute flight adds the South Para Reservoir and Williamstown. The 20-minute flight reaches Seppeltsfield and Tanunda. Barossa Helicopters is South Australia's longest-running helicopter company, flying the Barossa since the mid-1980s.
