Such a trill to be on top of the mountain in the snow. The view was amazing. I wish I could do it again.

Amazing experience! We felt very safe in the capable hands of Mark our pilot and we were impressed by the stunning views. We were very lucky with the weather and able to land on the glacier, after a couple of days with poor weather conditions.
An exciting experience

A good experience which could be great with a few minor tweaks. Our pilot had to adapt our flight to suit the weather conditions but could have communicated better. Seated in the back of the helicopter one already has a restricted view, which was not helped by the front seat passenger holding up a large I pad to take photos! Having said that it was pretty amazing to land on the glacier and get out for a short time.
