Up the Ante on your next Pub Crawl

Now that most of us have recovered from the celebratory marathon that is the festive season, the time is right to start planning the next epic adventure.
Australia Day is just around the corner, so we thought we put our focus this week on a solid Aussie tradition: the humble pub crawl.
Of course, when you let Pterodactyl Helicopters take the helm for your day out, there will be nothing humble about your pub crawl…actually, there won’t be any crawling either.
Far from it.

If you and your mates feel as though you really should hit some ace venues sometime soon, but are hard pressed to come up with a route you’ve not done to death already, our flying pub tours are the very thing you’re looking for.
Everything about this package just screams excellence.

For a start, Pterodactyl Helicopters will plan the entire outing for you; all you need to do is nominate the day.
We have a long, long, looooong list of participating old school pubs and boutique breweries (including Sundowner Saloon, Pumpyard Bar and Brewery, Porters Plainland Tavern and many more) and will select five of our favourite venues for you to enjoy.

The flying pub tour starts at 9.30 am and you won’t be back until around 4.30 pm, so it’s a solid day of indulgence.
The package includes helicopter transfer from each venue to the next, a beer (or other beverage) at each pub and a much needed lunch at the half-way mark. Sure, this may not seem like a lot to drink BUT you have to consider that in between you will be doing some serious flying and our responsible pilots must insist on air-safety and…how to say it politely…air sickness prevention.
And besides, the rides from one location to the next are guaranteed to be more intoxicating than even the strongest brew.

We usually cater for 2-6 passengers, so none of your mates are going to miss out; and, if one of you happens to have a rather spacious backyard, there is no need for you to travel all the way to our hangar – we will pick you up at home.
It doesn’t get any more rock’n’roll than that, if you think about it.

At Pterodactyl Helicopters we understand that there is usually one person for whom a pub crawl is nothing short of an ordinary experience; we are referring, of course, to the designated driver.
A champion, no doubt, but not the most enthusiastic participant.
When you book a pub crawl by chopper, there is no designated driver and all involved can simply relax in the knowledge that they will be returned home at the end of the day in safety and style.

Feel like making the first pub crawl of the year an adventure to go down in the history books? Contact Pterodactyl Helicopters today and book yourself in for a day of cold drinks, tasty food, great company and the wild whirring of rotor blades.

Good times ahead, indeed.
