Fantastic trip to Milford Sound and back via a deserted beach where our new friends produced a bottle of sauvignon and 4 cups.

Fantastic Fox, Franz and Mount Cook! We only decided the night before that we were even going to book a helicopter flight over the glaciers.

If... read more 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

Thank you. read ess

Amazing experience not to be missed! Me and my wife drove all the way to franz Josef purely for this helicopter ride and snow landing, and... read more it was totally worth every penny! 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

So much fun! Well worth it.

We took our 18 month old who loves choppers and he fully enjoyed he whole experience - as... read more did we!!

Staff were all super friendly and pilot was very friendly too. Very informative while flying too and he even followed a chamois on top of the mountain for us all to see.

Definitely recommend! read ess

My first flight in a helicopter and I absolutely loved it! We were so lucky to find Haast Heli as it was a very personal experience, tailored to our interests! The... read more staff and the pilot were extremely friendly, helpful and went above and beyond. Loads of interesting facts about the places we saw, the pilot helped spotting deer and sprout and even directed the helicopter so we could see the deer better. We landed twice in stunning locations, got amazing pictures taken and back in the office the staff even printed the best picture of us with the heli in the background which the pilot took.

An amazing experience which I'll never forget and I can highly recommend it to everybody who would like a more private flight (we were only the two of us in the heli) and who likes to decide where to go and how long to fly (=how much money to spend) themselves. read ess
