Given the tight timeframe, I opted after hearing positive recommendations to do the twin-glacier flight with a snow landing. I was lucky enough to score a front seat on the first leg, however all the 6 passenger seats on the Airbus chopper have great views. The staff at check-in were so friendly and helpful, and pilots give on overview of the glaciers during the flight via the headsets. We had a great view of both the Fox and Franz glaciers, landing on a mountain top in the snow to experience the mountain air and take more photos.

Well worth the extravagance to fit this trip in I'll never forget it - absolute bucket list thing to do!

Tip: try and book a flight in the morning, the earlier the better. The weather can close in later in the day and morning flights are less likely to be weather affected. More read ess

A really calming, patient and knowledgable guide. Highly recommend doing the 40 minute tour, although it’s a bit more expensive it was worth every penny. Absolutely breathtaking views. We did a morning flight as recommended and it was really lovely and clear. 10/10 read ess

I’d never done a helicopter tour and this one did not disappoint. We did the 20 min one just for Franz Josef which personally I thought was a great amount of time. You land on the glacier itself and get to take photos on there too. read ess

I booked in advance and kept my fingers crossed that the weather would be kind. We received an email beforehand saying that they didn’t have enough for our flight but asked if it ok to change to another which was only 10 minutes shorter and a bit cheaper, which we were happy to do. We felt very safe, the sun was out and the sky blue - so lucky. We flew over lakes and mountains, including Mount Cook and landed on Fox Glacier - 2 feet of pristine snow. A helicopter ride has always been on my bucket list, but wanted to wait until It was somewhere amazing and this certainly fitted the criteria. Absolutely recommended! read ess

If you have limited time, do not have the right gear or can't face the 1.5 to 2 hr walk to come 400 to 500 meters from the terminal face...this trip is for you!

We booked the 30 min Fox/Franz fly over with Mount Cook views and a landing on Franz.

From the minute we called at 8am to arriving at The Alpine Adventure Centre, we were met with friendly and enthusiastic staff.

We arrived around 2.5 hours early from Greymouth and they kindly allowed us on the earlier flight - they must of sensed our excitement.

Bill was such a smooth and safe pilot but that didn't mean a boring ride...oh no! A wonderful, steep ascent over the mountains and gradual turns over the glaciers made the ride exhilarating!

I don't want to add spoilers here, please just book this trip, don't beat yourself up about the cost, just do it and worry about it later...it is worth every cent!

The commentary was brilliant but the views will literally take your breath away. Deep cracks with blue ice, formations that look straight out of a Sci-Fi movie and the snow, brilliant white snow!

When the flight came to the end it didn't feel too short but obviously you don't want it to come to an end.

If you don't want to hike on the glacier or walk to it, do not miss out on this bucket list experience.

I am writing this from my hotel and wondering how I will sleep tonight as I am still buzzing 5 hours later! read ess

We were mesmerised by the view of the glaciers and being able to land and spend time up at the top- Our pilot Steven was great- friendly, ethustiatic and informative- there was really good views of the glaciers and the pilot made an effort to get good views for you no matter where you were sitting. We were a little reluctant to book a trip due to the price however we are so glad we did and were defintley not disappointed- defintley the highlight of our holiday. read ess
