Description

Have you ever dreamt of flying like a bird, unrestricted and boundless? Prepare to turn this dream into a reality with our exhilarating helicopter tour, taking you on a journey to the renowned Glasshouse Mountains.

Travel north of Brisbane to the enchanting Sunshine District, where the Glasshouse Mountains await you. These magnificent peaks are volcanic plugs, the result of volcanic activity that occurred over 25 million years ago. Their unique formations earned them the name “Glasshouse,” as Captain Cook was reminded of the chimney stacks in Yorkshire, England, known as glasshouse, during his exploration.

According to indigenous tradition, each mountain had its role within a family. Tibrogargan, the tallest of the peaks, was considered the father of all tribes, while Beerwah was his wife, and they were blessed with many children. The story of the mountains carries cultural significance, adding to the allure of this remarkable location.

As you soar high in our luxurious helicopter, you’ll experience the true beauty and grandeur of the Glasshouse Mountains. Our flight takes you all the way from Archerfield Brisbane, providing you with a mesmerising birds-eye view of these natural wonders. The breathtaking landscape, formed by millions of years of geological activity, is a sight to behold.

Don’t forget to bring your camera along, as this awe-inspiring journey promises countless photo opportunities to capture the magnificence of the Glasshouse Mountains from above. Our experienced pilot will provide live commentary, sharing fascinating insights into the history, geology, and indigenous traditions surrounding these majestic peaks. Be prepared to be both enlightened and entertained as you immerse yourself in this unforgettable experience.
