    Flying in a helicopter for the first time was an experience in itself, but being able to see those mighty glaciers from above and even land on one and stand on it was magical!! 🤩😍

    We had a fabulous helicopter flight and landing up to Franz Josef Glacier. Check in and safety briefing were smooth and during our flight the pilot relayed interesting information about glacier and surrounding landscape. We had enough time on the ground at the glacier to take plenty of photos before our return flight. A great experience and would thoroughly recommend.
