Whilst there it was our 44th wedding anniversary so to celebrate we treated ourselves to an hour long helicopter ride. The staff were extremely friendly. Our pilot Simon was very pleasant and very knowledgeable. The flight was over and all around Mount Cook Tasman and over Franz Joseph, fox and Tasman glaciers as well as around the lakes. The views were amazing the weather was perfect. We landed on the highest helipad in NZ at 8000 ft had our photos taken with Mt Cook in the background. We were so lucky it was an incredible day. Thankyou Tekapo Helicopters. Moira and Trevor Wright read ess

We felt in very capable hands with pilot Dion and the photo opportunity is second to none. It was worth every dollar. 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

The staff and especially Brooke our pilot were very professional and my wife who was very nervous was put at ease straight away by the professional manner the guys approached the whole experience.

We would thoroughly recommend the company and their staff for what was a once in a lifetime experience.

When we turned up at the office the super helpful Dan took our payment and ran us through a safety briefing. He gave us a great insight about the area in and his interests in firewood and artillery. After that we were then driven out to the hangar where our immaculately presented helicopter was awaiting. My wife was estatic. Once on board (this was our first time in a helicopter) it was very smooth and the views were spectacular! We did the number 5 flight and were glad we did as we saw everything there was on offer in the area including Mt Cook and west coast glaciers. We landed in the snow and got some pictures and had a chat to our pilot jeff who pointed out and named mountains and local fauna. On the way back the views of the Mackenzie basin were amazing. I would recommend this trip to anyone as it's the best way to see the mountains and glaciers and a snow landing was a highlight. read ess

Bill, the pilot, was reassuringly safe and provided an informative commentary. The views over the southern alps and the two glaciers was simply breathtaking. We were blessed with a perfect day, weatherwise for our flight. I would highly recommend this company for this trip. We are still on a high a day later. read ess
