The size of the glacier was far larger than we ever expected. The views and scenery were beautiful. Weather was outstanding. Couldn't wish for anything more. Brilliant trip which everyone should do. To top it all our pilot Paul was extremely friendly, knowledgable and full of useful information . Overall a great experience which we will never forget. Thank you.

Fantastic from start to finish. The flight to the landing area was epic. Amazing views and great commentary. If you can stretch to the flight which includes the landing on the mountain it is certainly well worth it. Great ground staff too. Very friendly and helpful. Thoroughly recommend the trip.

The helicopter ride above the Franz Josef glacier and Fox Glacier was spectacular and breathtaking. The 10 minutes snow landing at the summit of Fox Glacier provided sufficient time to take amazing family pictures and the surrounding area.

Unhurried flight. Fabulous landing spot and plenty of tine for photos on the glacia. We all really enjoyed it and feel lucky to have hit a clear weather window. We are all now on a diet!!!
