Take off on Auckland’s most popular scenic helicopter flight with a bird’s eye view of the Viaduct, Harbour Bridge, Eden Park, Sky Tower and Rangitoto Island.

Where in the world can you fly over the crater of a dormant volcano on a city scenic tour? Auckland was built on the isthmus between the Tasman Sea to the West and the Hauraki Gulf to the East and straddles a volcanic field of 55 volcanoes whose cones, lakes and lagoons are best seen from the sky. Fly from the Heletranz Heliport in Albany to the Harbour Bridge, past the historic Chelsea Sugar Works and on towards Auckland Zoo. Look down on Eden Park Stadium and the now extinct cones of Mount Eden and Mount Albert. Don’t miss the spectacular views of Cornwall Park and Auckland Museum as you head towards New Zealand’s tallest building, the stunning Sky Tower!

As you leave the heart of the city and Auckland’s Viaduct Harbour behind, a panoramic view of the east coast and islands of the Hauraki Gulf appears, with views of Devonport Naval Base, Mt Victoria, North Head and Takapuna beach dotted with multi-million dollar mansions. Chopper out towards the crater of dormant Rangitoto, Auckland’s largest volcano, which last erupted approximately 550 years ago, before turning back inland towards the heliport. Flight duration approximately 18 minutes.

Spectacular views out over the Hauraki Gulf Islands such as the extinct volcano of Rangitoto Island and Motutapu Island farm can be seen as we fly over some of Auckland’s North Shore suburbs, Ngataringa and Shoal Bay to Lake Pupuke, a now freshwater filled extinct volcanic crater before descending into the heliport.

Testimonials

Awesome Flight KJ5ZAG

Not a better way to start July off with a surprise helicopter ride with Inflite for my partner and I. Awesome team, so friendly, great pilot, made us all feel safe and gave us a good tour of Auckland. I vote he starts helicopter Uber’s!! Would definitely fly with you guys again.

Great Way to See Around Auckland

Had an amazing flight with Tom at the weekend. Very safety conscious, Tom had us all relaxed as we set off on a sunny morning. Got to see Rangitoto, Browns Island first and then back to the main sites of Auckland City – Harbour bridge included. Well worth the money, especially if you don’t have much time in Auckland.

Highlight of The Year

What an experience! A must do in Auckland! Did the Rangitoto tour and the view from up there is absolutely incredible. Pilot Ben did a good job keeping everyone happy and safe. I’d like to personally thank Jes and Gypsy at Inflite for their exceptional service and phenomenal work to make sure all of us were excited for the tour!

What an Amazing Time

I took my 84yo Nana up for a flight over Auckland city it was amazing and they helped to get her into the chopper and back out again. Then lunch at Mechanno was delish! Def worth the spend.
