Amazing Experience
I would give these guys 10 stars if I could! We took a helicopter tour of Brisbane, the Gold Coast, and then stopped for lunch at Spicers Peak Lodge and it was an absolutely amazing experience from start to finish. Niko and Declan are great pilots, very safe, and made us feel very comfortable the entire time. I planned this tour months in advance of our trip to Australia and the responsiveness, communication, and ease of planning was outstanding. Most of my communication was with Declan and he arranged for a car service to/from the airfield/Brisbane hotel and made the lunch reservation for us at Spicers in addition to the tour. It really could not have been easier. Spicers is amazing as well so if you’re hesitating about adding it on to your tour, don’t! There’s nothing like landing on the lawn and then having an exquisite lunch on the patio before jetting back off in your private helicopter. Bekaa Air really did execute everything flawlessly and I highly recommend them!

Amazing helicopter ride
This experience was amazing. We done a pub crawl tour on the helicopter for a full day and enjoyed it so much. Nico our pilot made the experience even better. He was lovely with us always available to do pictures of us while we were there also took us to see the whales planned a surprise at the end of our trip to go around CBD Brisbane. We had so much fun during this trip in helicopter we saw beautiful places and had our time of our life. Thank you again!

Unforgettable experience
Our adventure to Spicers Lodge was made exceptionally special by our pilot Niko who went above and beyond to ensure a special trip. Incredibly friendly and professional, Niko went out of his way time and again to ensure everything ran smoothly while including several little unexpected extras that gave the whole experience a very personalised and special touch. Niko helped turned a once in a life time moment for me and my partner into an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend Niko and Bekaa Air not only for their friendly and positive Attitude but also for their wealth of knowledge of the area and the industry. I highly recommend them and thank them for the memories.

Absolute perfection
I took my partner on a surprise trip to Spicers Peak Lodge for lunch with Bekaa Air. Every single thing was 10/10 perfection, if I could give 6 stars I would. Excellent communication from start to finish, from the live chat on the website to help us pick a tour and date, text messages to discuss specific requirements. We requested a reschedule due to windy weather forecast which was accommodated at no extra cost (refer to their excellent cancellation policy). Chopper is small but surprisingly very comfortable with an excellent view even with both of us in the back seats you can see clearly out the front. Landing 10m from the front door of Spicers Lodge, you certainly feel like a rock star. At no point were we rushed, Niko our pilot was super chilled, took some excellent photos for us and sent them through. We paid extra for the GoPro footage which was 100% worth it and excellent footage. Do yourself a favour and dont go to anyone else. A true bucket list experience.

Helicopter Tour - Spicers Peak Lodge: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Brisbane.
How much does Helicopter Tour - Spicers Peak Lodge cost?
+
Prices start at $568 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Brisbane usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Helicopter Tour - Spicers Peak Lodge take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Brisbane is not rushed.
Is Helicopter Tour - Spicers Peak Lodge worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Brisbane, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Helicopter Tour - Spicers Peak Lodge?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Helicopter Tour - Spicers Peak Lodge suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Helicopter Tour - Spicers Peak Lodge?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Brisbane can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Brisbane and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Helicopter Tour - Spicers Peak Lodge start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Brisbane within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Brisbane?
+
On Outty we rank every Brisbane experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include North Stradbroke Island WILDLIFE Adventure Tour from Brisbane, Australia Zoo Day Trip from Brisbane, Ultimate Brisbane Walking Tour (Small-Group, Drink Included). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Brisbane?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Brisbane?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Helicopter Tour - Spicers Peak Lodge?
+
Included: Commentary during the flight; Safety Brief prior to the flight; Round-trip private transfer; Bose Headset Systems; and Free parking for the entire duration of the experience. Not included: Alcoholic drinks (available to purchase); and We do make restaurant bookings for our customers but without food packages. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
