Brett was a fantastic pilot and tour guide. Such a pleasure to see our wonderful city from the air. I cannot recommend taking a flight with Melbourne Seaplanes highly enough.

Narelle G. - 8 Januray 2021

On the weekend my partner and I took 'The Ultimate Experience' with Melbourne Seaplanes. It was the perfect suprise present for Maddys 30th. Captain Brett & Barbara were amazing through the entire process and even booked a beach side window table for us for lunch. The views were also stunning & we gained lots of local knowledge & interesting facts from Captain Brett on the way to Sorrento & back. We highly recommend everyone does this at least once, we'll be back though for sure! Thanks again for an amazing day

What a fantastic journey. From the time we met Barbara to book our flight to the flight itself with the pilot Brett.....very professional. Would not hesitate to fly again with this ever so friendly company. Highly recommend this trip with excellent value for money.

WOW...

What a fabulous experience. A short flight around Hobson's Bay with stunning views of Melbourne and surrounds. We live in the area so it was wonderful to see our home in a beautiful new way. Thanks to Rod for his amusing commentary & to Barb in her little box offering friendly local advice.

A Bird's Eyeview of Melbourne

What a wonderful way to see the Melbourne Skyline. Had a flight that took in the bay, the city of Melbourne and the Dandenongs. I am a nervous flyer but had no concerns on this flight!!! Wonderful service from the pilot Brett and his wife Barbara, great ambassadors for Melbourne tourism. Highly recommend.

A wonderful experience!

I booked a flight for my father and I as a birthday present for him. Not only was the flight an experience I think everyone should do, Barbara and Brett were lovely people to help me organise the trip and take us on our flight. We did the the Half Moon Bay flight which gave us amazing views of the coast, the city and even a shipwreck and old submarine! I was also pleasantly surprised with the smooth take off and landing for anyone who doesn't like bumpy rides
