It was like being in another world. Our pilot was so lovely - he is so passionate about what he does and made us feel very special. He told us interesting facts about the glaciers. We found this company to be very professional, meticulous about safety and determined to please!! Highly recommended!!! read ess

Ada kept me posted of the updated weather condition and the possible flying day, it helped me in planning and adjusting the trip for my family. For the pilot Keith, thanks for the safe flight given to us. Though we did not talk to you a lot, we felt safe flying with you and that’s more than enough. Flying from Tekapo is a lot easier and more convenient than from the west side. Tekapo’s weather is comparatively stable and it avoid us from driving the whole day to reach fox. Thanks for everything. More read ess

Problem is as always, it is never cheap. So we were going around all the companies and using our best bargaining powers(being 6 of us helps) but still not cheap. But we decide to go for it and boy was it worth it. Even though it was only about 20 minute experience but it was memorable. Going up the mountains, seeing the view from the heli, playing with snow. Its really an experience that one should try if 150-200 dollars is not too much. They will take a memorable photo for you with the heli and offer you at 30dollars i think. We bought it. Worth the memory. Tip: Don't book with the agencies. Go there directly and book it. We were looking at the prices at packages for tour groups cos it seems to be much more expensive. We thought we will not be able to experience it but only when we got there we were excited about much cheaper price. Remember to bring all the memory and batteries for your camera! read ess

The view and scenery was totally worth it! ALTHOUGH sometimes they require a minimum number of people to fly even if you have already booked the tour, so we were glad that someonelse joined in the last minute so we were able to fly. I recommend checking that with them before you confirm. 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

Great opportunity to see the glacier up close and some of the other sights. Landing on Franz Josef glacier was something that will live with us for sometime. The added bonus of seeing Mt Cook and the surrounding area was a real treat. Well organised, reasonable price and well worth the time. read ess
