A fantastic helicopter tour over the central glaciers at Mount Cook, with good information from the pilot, landing with good opportunities to take photos, and a pleasant and safe pilot. And in good weather the experiences are fantastic.

It was an amazing experience with beautiful views. They are quite friendly, but are also focused on passenger safety. Can't wait to do it again on our next adventure to New Zealand!
