We did the 50 minute helicopter touring with a glacier landing up in the mountains - it was an incredible experience and would recommend it to anyone (even if you’re a little scared of heights). The team were incredibly knowledgeable and gave a good overview of the landmarks we were seeing out the window and could answer all questions.

At beginning, we were a bit uneasy about the Heli ride as first time. But the pilot was well experienced and put us at easy by ensuring smooth take off and travel. Enjoyed every bit of the bird eye view. Snow landing at Mt Aspiring was awesome. The slights were memorable and will leave with us for a long time. A must to do in Queenstown.

It is a unique experience. Our pilot was really kind. He explained us a lot of things about towns, landscape and the lord of the rings, in which he helped to record. He went into skippers canyon, and it was really exciting. Moreover, we landed twice, and the snow was amazing.

From the minute we were picked up to when we were dropped off we had a fantastic experence. The checkin was quick and the safety well explained. The flight, just amazing. We didn't feel rushed or frightened in any way. Alfie was an amazing pilot answering our questions and engaging the whole flight. I would highly recommend going.

Alfie our pilot was amazing. He saw how much fun everyone was having on the glacier and did not rush us through anything. Great pilot, amazing views certainly the highlight of our trip. The snow was up to our knees.
