Truly fantastic experience!
Flawless beginning to end.
Loved the amazing views - they were breathtaking. Wineglass Bay definitely a highlight.
Alex the pilot was friendly and really informative.
Landing on the grassy airstrip on Maria Island was fantastic. Nice short hike and a lovely picnic lunch.
This is a must do!

This is an amazing bucket list experience to do, anyone considering splurging- do it, you’ll have no regrets!! The scenery during the flight is breath taking, Maria island is stunning. While on the island I had a baby wombat come up to me, head butt my foot and try to eat my shoe!
