Stunning South West - A brilliant, stand out experience. Our pilot Jason and guide David were absolutely fantastic. Both very knowledgable which made the whole day so interesting. Flying along the coast to the landing strip at Melaleuca was very cool. Spending the day in Bathurst Harbour was an unforgettable experience. Calm conditions meant we got right out to the stunning Breaksea Islands. Gourmet lunch then boat ride back followed by the flight back to Hobart across the Western Arthur range. Do it!

Great way to see Wineglass Bay - What a day! Par Avion Wilderness Tours took us up in an 8 passenger bush airplane for a 40 minute flight from Hobart to Friendly Beaches. Our pilot, Patrick, was fantastic and knowledgeable about the history and geography of the area. We then went on a 5 hour boat cruise around the Freycinet peninsula before getting back aboard the pane for an hour flight around the Tasman peninsula back to Hobart. An awesome day.

Day trip to Melaleuca - The weather predicted for the day I had booked my one day wilderness experience tour with Par Avion to Southwest was terrible, ("small hail", etc!) but Par Avion were ahead of the game and managed in short notice to find a perfect day for my trip. Fabulous flight and enjoyable boat trip with great lunch provided.

Amazing scenery, history and information - We were lucky enough to enjoy excellent south west weather for our day. Our Pilot Patrick flew us down the coast with spectacular scenery, around south east Tasmania to land smoothly at Melaluca. He shared a very informative commentary enroute. Patrick also took us on our boat ride out into Bathurst Harbour, once again with great information, both geographically and historical. There was another group with us who flew with Michael, who also enjoyed the same great service. We were never rushed, and allowed plenty of time to explore the area. We were also lucky enough to spy some of the famous orange bellied Parrots. The food and drinks were delicious, and very welcome. Our flight back was also spectacular flying over the Western and Eastern Arthur’s ranges and other ranges and country towns on the way back to Hobart. What a special day.

Best day ever!! - It was amazing!!! Admittedly we were super lucky with a perfect weather day but everything that we experienced and the way the pilots/ tour guides looked after us was exceptional. I was worried about seasickness (which I suffer from) and was checked on frequently. The morning tea and lunch were great. I would recommend Par Avion and the tour to anyone 🙂🙂🙂
