A fun, relaxing and educational experience!

Got this as a surprise Christmas gift. One of the best experiences I have ever had. My instructor was amazing and walked me through each and every detail I needed to know. All my questions were happily answered with detail. Look forward to doing similar activities in the future. Got to taxi the aircraft to the runway. Take off was performed by the instructor then controls were handed over to myself for the remainder of the flight including landing!

Brilliant Surprise for Husband and Son

The owners were so lovely to deal directly with and so accommodating when we had to change plans at the last minute! This was a surprise for my husband and while he was up in the air we decided we'd surprise our son who was excitedly watching. So thankful that they had a gap after our arranged flight to make that happen! The pilot was absolutely brilliant - knowledgeable, friendly, patient and confident. My son and husband both came back beaming, having absolutely loved their experience. Would definitely recommend to anyone thinking of giving it a go or planning it as a surprise.

We are so glad Matthew & Jackson had a terrific time with us and it was just as enjoyable for us to see the delight in their faces once they knew what they were doing, especially when Jackson was surprised on the spot with his flight. Thank you for the great review and hope to see you next holiday time. The Inspire Team

Amazing experience

This was the best gift I could have gotten for my birthday. It was really genuine and interactive, and the staff was awesome. I’ll never forget this day... and will definitely fly again.
