Hunter Valley Helicopter Tour: Bubbly Breakfast in Flight

Champagne breakfast served on a verandah high above the vines.

A helicopter tour of Hunter Valley departing from Cessnock Airport, combining a scenic morning flight over the wine region with a bubbly breakfast at Peterson House's verandah. The flight includes live commentary from your pilot, headsets so you hear every word, and all landing and facility fees. Groups stay under four passengers to keep the aircraft balanced and comfortable.

Step-by-step itinerary

Morning scenic flight and breakfast

• Arrive for safety briefing and meet pilot
• Take photos with helicopter
• Enjoy Bubbly Breakfast over vineyards
• Return to Cessnock Airport by helicopter

The experience

The day starts with a safety briefing and photo opportunity at Cessnock Airport before you board the helicopter with your pilot. Once airborne, live commentary guides you over the Hunter Valley's vineyard landscape as you head toward Peterson House. The flight itself runs two to three hours from start to finish, giving you time to take in the views without a rushed pace.

Breakfast happens on Peterson House's verandah: champagne, food, and the sight of the vines below. You're not watching the valley from a distance. You've landed in it. After you eat, the helicopter returns you to Cessnock Airport the same way you came. Headsets stay on throughout so the pilot's commentary cuts through the engine noise, and every tax, fee and facility charge is already included in your price.

What’s included

• Helicopter flight with live pilot commentary.
• champagne breakfast on Peterson House's verandah.
• headsets for clear communication.
• VIP pickup and return from Cessnock Airport.
• all taxes, fees and landing charges.
