We can not recommend this company high enough as our pilot was very careful with us and his knowledge of the area and commentary was excellent. read ess

Once up there, clear skies above the glacier and a few dramatic clouds along the cliffs for good measure, created one of the most amazing views!
Being able to land and crawl in the snow for some time while our pilot took a few pics was super cool too 🙂
Overall, a highly recommended experience to top your visit of the west coast! read ess

They were in awe of the Franz Josef glacier just as much as we were. The landing on the top is the highlight and I felt we had ample time to take photos and play in the snow. Such a great family experience. An expensive 20 minutes but absolutely worth it, would totally recommend! read ess

Fabulous pilot, Dion, who gave a great commentary. Really can’t appreciate the beauty and scale of the glaciers unless you see them from the air. Magical experience to land on the mountain and see close up the glaciers, Mt Cook and Mt Tasman. So memorable, a true life memory. read ess

So my wife and I arrived late to Franz Joseph the day we did it and felt compelled to take a helicopter ride. We walked around Franz Joseph and two lovely gentlemen at HeliServices were willing to help us for a flight that departed ten minutes later - It was also the last flight out for the day! We felt so lucky and got an excellent view of the glaciers up close. Our helicopter driver allowed us plenty of time and helped us take pictures. Amazing experience. Thank you guys for making our honeymoon special! read ess

Truly a wonderful experience for him, and one he is STILL taking about!
Thank you. read ess
