Review of 12 Apostles Helicopters

The views from the helicopters are good, 7 people ...

The views from the helicopters are good, 7 people can be taken up at a time for a 15 minute flight, huge queues in peak season, like a 60 minute wait is not unusual, not to mention pushy coach drivers trying to get their passengers in first, between 1pm and 4.30 pm is the busiest time normally, when all the large buses arrive. If you can avoid those times, do so.
If you have limited time, ie. on an organised day tour, suggest you go for a walk along the viewing platforms, a very good experience in my opinion where you hear the ocean and take it all in at your own pace.
I have been asked by the company who responded to my review where a cheaper scenic helicopter flight could be found. Answer is the Phillip Island Helicopter Scenic Flight. $90 or so. Okay you don't get the 12 Apostles but it's still decent views. And in fact your own company used to offer much cheaper flight options.
