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.
Awesome experience

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!
Something you don’t do every day

The afternoon before our next morning 9:45 am helicopter ride I went to their office just to confirm and they mentioned that they have opening for earlier 8:30am flight if we wanted to which we accepted, but there was one problem (not operators) that we would not be able to land on snow because earlier rain washed the snow away, so they gave us 3 options-flight and no landing, pay extra to fly further and land on snow or a full refund. We decided to pay extra and land on the snow and it was worth it the helicopter flight was great. The staff and the pilot were very good, highly recommend .
Amazing experience! pilot...
