The one-hour fixed-wing flight from Queenstown to the Tasman Glacier in Aoraki Mount Cook is certainly spectacular, but the highlight of this trip is the glacier Heli Hike. The experienced guides will take you into a deep part of the glacier via a scenic helicopter flight. The helicopter passes over the deep crevasses of the icefalls and waterfalls to land on the Tasman glacier itself. From there you’ll be fitted with crampons for the two hours on the ice, exploring caves and seeing the natural, ever-changing wonder of the glacier in the South Island of New Zealand.

This was an unforgettable experience for the entire family. The plane flight to the helicopter was smooth, beautiful and great with the added points of interest pointed out by Luke our pilot. We were unable to do the glacier hike portion due to incoming weather so instead, Simon our pilot, landed flawlessly mid point of the mountain. What pristine terrain and unforgettable scenery! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for an incredible adventure.

The Tasman Glacier hike was absolutely breathtaking! From the moment we took off our pilot Luke made us feel comfortable and excited for the adventure ahead. He was incredibly friendly and shared fascinating insights about the area, making the flight a highlight in itself. Our guide, Scott, was super nice and knowledgeable. He expertly navigated us through the stunning glacial landscape and made sure we had a safe and unforgettable experience. His passion for the glacier was contagious and he truly made the trip one of a kind. I absolutely loved this experience and can't wait to do it again next time I visit!

A fabulous experience flying over to Mt Cook and back and trekking the glacier - beautiful weather, crawling and sliding through glaciers and learning about the area from the air and ice was a truly memorable day. To top it off, our pilot, Luke, was very knowledgable, and looked after us for the whole trip. Our trekking guide, Ange, made our trek such a safe and great adventure that time went way too fast! Highly recommend!

We had an absolutely amazing experience on this excursion! The pilot (Luke) was experienced and so nice. Our tour guide once on the glacier was knowledgeable and so experienced. He was friendly and accommodating and took videos and pictures for us. He even took us into the glaciers. We had a wonderful experience and the weather was amazing that day.

This was an absolutely breathtaking and amazing experience. The views on the plane ride were incredible, so many "wow" moments. The heli ride to the glacier was awesome. The glacier hike was exhilarating! If you do one tour while in Queenstown, this would be my number 1 choice hands down! Everyone involved from the shuttle driver, the staff that briefs you, to of course our pilot and our hike guide - were professional, friendly and made the day unforgettable. Thank you for such a wonderful experience :)
