Romantic Helicopter Moments Over Wellington

Love truly feels alive as you lift off from Wellington’s vibrant waterfront on a private helicopter experience designed for two. As the city fades beneath you, the landscape transforms into rugged cliffs and sweeping coastal views. This is where romance meets adventure, surrounded by the beauty of New Zealand’s natural wonders.

Touch down at a secluded cliffside spot overlooking the stunning west coast and the Marlborough Sounds. It’s the perfect backdrop for a proposal, anniversary, or simply a shared moment away from the world. The experience captures the essence of love — pure, exhilarating, and unforgettable.
