From beginning to end the whole experience was amazing for me and my friends. We picked an 11am flight for the full 40 min tour. Absolutely breath taking with an outstanding pilot whose knowledge of the surrounding mountains and glaciers was second to none and least not forget the chance to get out of the helicopter and walk through the crisp snow at the mountain top. Would definitely recommend.

Absolutely fantastic! Not only to ride in a helicopter but up into the glacier with a snow landing. It seemed cloudy from the ground but the pilot found his way through a hole in the cloud and we were in a different world of snow, ice and blue skies! Even so we sadly couldn't get to Mt Cook but that don't detract one iota. An unmissable experience. I'd result do it again and again...

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.

Fly above Franz Josef Glacier and land on snow for a stunning alpine helicopter adventure.

Enjoy panoramic views of glaciers, mountains, and rainforest before stepping onto the glacier’s snow for a memorable photo opportunity.

Explore the icy terrain safely and learn about the glacier’s ever-changing features from your experienced pilot.

Extend your flight to see both Franz Josef and Fox Glaciers, or take the longer route to enjoy Mount Cook and Mount Tasman for even bigger alpine views.

My first ever flight in a helicopter and it didn't disappoint! I sat in the front and the view was awe inspiring - I didn't know where to look as the view was stunning all around! Our pilot was fantastic and very informative - he was as excited as we were!!! I would highly recommend this experience as a once in a lifetime way to see the glaciers!!
