“Driver was over an hour late, I say driver because they were in no way a tour guide, there was no beer or cider tasting on the trip, it also came to our attention during the trip that we had paid a lot more than everyone else had for the same service, other than that it was a good day mostly because of the other people on the trip who were great”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 2 reviews · from $429

You’ll board a private aircraft at Flight One for a scenic flight from Archerfield over North Stradbroke Island, pairing Jumpinpin IPA, Point Lookout Lager, and Amity Pale Ale with the views below. Pilot Ashley has been praised for making the low-level flight engaging, with a brewery visit and return transport included.

“It was a good fun thing to do. It's not every day you fly on a small plane as low as 500 feet seeing dolphins, some mantra rays and a shark whilst spilling beer on your shirt. Our pilot Ashley was terrific and made it a good fun and engaging flight over. It was all it said it would be. I loved it.”
