Become a VIP for the day as you're whisked away by helicopter to the acclaimed Tantalus Estate on Waiheke Island. Be welcomed with a glass of wine at the helipad, before making your way to the elegant restaurant for a divine four course lunch. After your meal, return to Auckland via ferry.
Turn heads as you arrive to your winery lunch in style! Lifting off from Albany, enjoy a stunning 15 minute helicopter flight to Waiheke Island, soaring over the craters of Rangitoto Island and Motutapu Island, before landing at the prestigious Tantalus Estate. Nestled amongst the vines in the heart of Onetangi Valley and offering quality wines and fare, the Estate is a clear favourite to travellers and locals alike. Upon landing, you'll be greeted at the helipad with a glass of Tantalus Methode Traditonnelle, before being escorted to the light-flooded restaurant for a sumptuous four course lunch. After your meal, make your own way to Matiatia Wharf for the cruise back to downtown Auckland.

RedBalloon is your one-stop shop for experiences and curated gifts. We’re so confident you’ll love what you get from us, we’re offering this promise to you…
We want you to have the most enriching experience possible, so if this means swapping your jet boat experience for wine tasting then we’ve got you covered. Simply exchange online or contact our Customer Experience Team and we’ll do the work for you.
Not only do we handpick the best experiences for you, we also guarantee you’ll pay the same as you would buying direct from the experience provider. If you find the same experience advertised at a lower standard price on the same day by the same provider, simply take a screenshot of the experience advertised at the lower price and tell us within 30 days of your purchase and we’ll match it.
We understand life gets busy, which is why all vouchers and gift cards purchased have a 5-year expiry. The only exception to our expiry terms is if the experience has already been booked in. We honour the purchase price of our experiences for 18 months. If you book your experience after this time and the price of the experience increases you can either pay the difference or exchange it for another experience free of charge.
We know the trust consumers place in ratings and reviews is tied directly to authenticity. That’s why we use Bazaarvoice. We believe that reviews should represent the genuine, unbiased, and transparent opinion about the author’s experience with a product or service. Reviews are not altered in any way by anyone other than the original author — including corrections for spelling or grammar. Reviews are not filtered, edited, or deleted simply because they are negative or are lower-rated.
