Levantine Hill winery lunch: Private helicopter & wine tasting

Fly over Melbourne's eastern suburbs and land on a winery lawn for lunch

A private helicopter tour from Melbourne to Levantine Hill Estate in the Yarra Valley, where you land on the winery's front lawn and sit down to a five-course Mediterranean-inspired lunch paired with the estate's wines. The helicopter is reserved exclusively for your group. The flight covers the Dandenong Ranges and the valley's rolling hills on the way in and out. Duration is around four hours from Melbourne.

The experience

The helicopter departs Melbourne and climbs over the eastern suburbs toward Mount Dandenong, then follows the green hills of the Yarra Valley down to Levantine Hill Estate. Your pilot lands directly on the front lawn: no transfer, no drive from an airstrip. You walk straight to the restaurant from the grass.

Lunch is a five-course shared menu built around Mediterranean flavors, paired with three wines from Levantine Hill's own vineyard. The tasting focuses on the estate's premium releases, and the restaurant overlooks the vines you flew over to get there. Four hours covers the flight, the meal and the return journey to Melbourne.

The helicopter is reserved for your group only: no strangers, no shared seats. Group size determines the booking: you'll choose at checkout whether you're flying as two, three to four, or five people. The same aircraft and the same pilot handle the full round trip, so there's no handoff or waiting between the flight and lunch.
