A really calming, patient and knowledgable guide. Highly recommend doing the 40 minute tour, although it’s a bit more expensive it was worth every penny. Absolutely breathtaking views. We did a morning flight as recommended and it was really lovely and clear. 10/10 read ess

A must do if you are not ready for glacier hiking, if not, why you come to Franz Josep ? read ess

The 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

I booked in advance and kept my fingers crossed that the weather would be kind. We received an email beforehand saying that they didn’t have enough for our flight but asked if it ok to change to another which was only 10 minutes shorter and a bit cheaper, which we were happy to do. We felt very safe, the sun was out and the sky blue - so lucky. We flew over lakes and mountains, including Mount Cook and landed on Fox Glacier - 2 feet of pristine snow. A helicopter ride has always been on my bucket list, but wanted to wait until It was somewhere amazing and this certainly fitted the criteria. Absolutely recommended! read ess

The lady on reception was very helpful,without being pushy. 10 mins after arriving at the office we were in a small helicopter flying down the coast seeing dolphins and seals. Absolutely fantastic. The icing on the cake was on landing we were taken through the back door of the office to see a little mountain goat, which had just been rescued, sitting on the desk! read ess

Took a longer flight and circled Mt Cook, saw the origin of the Fox and Franz Joseph Glaciers. Could actually see the Tasman Ocean thru the clouds. Landed on a snow field. Excellent pilot, Simon, had a good commentary. Would do again anytime. The highlight of our NZ holiday. read ess
