Fly in the sky instead of kayaking! - Chris, our pilot was the best. We had so much fun and landing on the little grass strip next to a little beach was amazing. Gorgeous views over all the region when in the air. Would definitely do this again and highly recommend!

MUST DO When in Picton - This is a MUST DO when visiting Picton! Chris picked us up right on time at the pre-set location and drove us to the airfield. We boarded the plane and after the brief safety instructions we were off. The take-off was perfect and the views were breathtaking. Chris was great at telling us about the area. We landed at the beach location in awe of the landing strip and the sheer beauty of the rocky beach. We enjoyed exploring the beach area and even spotted a waterfall nearby. We re-boarded the plane and took off for our return flight to Picton.

Above the world! - We loved being able to see the sounds from the air. Colton picked us up and was very pleasant and informative. We were disappointed that we were not able to do the beach part of the trip because of the winds.

Flying High in Picton - Seeing the sounds from up there in this plane was fantastic. Our pilot explained all the six of us were seeing during our flight, and we gained a love of this beautiful country and its people. We would recommend this experience to anyone.
