“ Highly recommend, it was an easy checkout experience with Experience Oz. Unfortunately there was a storm on the day that we had booked and were unable to go at the allocated time. Lucky we were rescheduled to fly out at a later time when the storm had passed. Loved the ease of pick up.
You don't actually have to go for the expensive option of a helicopter this aviation was more than great!!!
I loved the experience itself. However I'm not sure if it was because we booked the tickets through Experience OZ (probably because we got them at the discounted rate compared to what others might have paid?), all other parties got called out first to secure the best places available while we were the very last to be called, hence provided with the worst seat with the smallest window that didn't even guarantee the full view outside. The view of green island itself was stunning and it was the great weather so we are grate for those.

The scenic flight adventure with GSL Aviation went beyond our expectations! All the staff was very friendly, James (our pilot) took care of all the passengers and demonstrated great customer service skills and entire knowledge about the reef. Having a flight above the Great Barrier Reef is definitely a fantastic experience that everyone should take!
7 years ago“Don't forget your camera as the views of the reef are just spectacular. You will be amazed with how many different colours of blue you will see from the pristine waters of the reef.”
