A HISTORICAL WINE TASTING - Gourmet Lunch Option

Helicopter Tour Combines Freycinet’s Coastal Wonders with Tasmanian Wine Tasting

A premium helicopter experience is offering visitors an unforgettable way to discover Tasmania’s spectacular east coast, pairing breathtaking aerial scenery with a visit to one of the region’s historic vineyards. The journey showcases the dramatic landscapes of the Freycinet Peninsula before concluding with a refined wine tasting in the heart of Tasmania’s wine country.

The flight provides panoramic views of the pink granite peaks of The Hazards, the pristine shoreline of Wineglass Bay, and the crystal-clear waters surrounding the peninsula. As the helicopter continues toward Schouten Island, passengers can admire the rugged coastline, the expansive Friendly Beaches, and, with a little luck, spot marine wildlife in the waters below.

After the scenic flight, guests arrive at Spring Vale Vineyard, where a guided wine tasting takes place in a historic cellar door dating back to the early nineteenth century. The tasting highlights the vineyard’s locally produced wines while offering insight into the region’s long-standing winemaking traditions and heritage.

For those wishing to extend the experience, an optional gourmet lunch at Mel's Kitchen features seasonal Tasmanian produce, including local seafood, premium meats, and regional specialties. Combining scenic aviation, fine wine, and exceptional cuisine, the tour presents an immersive introduction to the natural beauty and culinary excellence of Tasmania’s east coast.
