It all worked out for the best as we had an early flight next morning in pristine weather conditions. Of course you get an amazing view of the glaciers and only from the air do you get a better perspective of the sheer size of it all. A must do if you're on holiday around the West Coast. read ess

Luckily for us - the tourist season was just kicking back to life in Fox and Franz Josef so not too busy and made for a very unique experience. Terrific pilot - Jarod (pretty sure got name correct - apologies if not) typical Kiwi cousin - happy for a chat and super stealthy in grabbing a quick snap and printing out a souvenir shot for the album.
This is a very worthwhile experience if you are able to do it - bit tight for space in the smaller chopper but they do have a larger one in the shed, first time on one for myself and a great buzz - we both felt like Cheshire Cats and couldn't keep the smiles of our faces. Great service at booking and during the too short trip up and back, would love to do another flight in one of the other highlight areas in NZ - the place has it all in spades or Aces - lucky Kiwi's. read ess

After a two day wait for the weather to clear we got our flight - it was so worth the wait! The customer service staff were excellent and Jamie (the pilot) ensured we had a very memorable flight. The views were amazing and the snow landing whilst very cold (-8) it was such a great addition. Would love to take another flight with you in the future. read ess
