No need to stop, you will be transported to an exclusive and private location, with exceptional views of the sweeping hills, coast and stunning skylines. Here, you can relax for 90 minutes and enjoy your feast of local food and wine in complete privacy. Then its time to jump back into the helicopter and be transported back to Penny's Hill winery. This is an intimate an unforgettable experience for you and your loved ones. Perfect for a special birthday gift; romantic proposal; or an indulgent, once-in-a-lifetime celebration.
