My partner & I had the most amazing experience on the scenic flight. The crew were extremely knowledgeable & made the whole trip extremely pleasurable, coupled with the fact they are local to the Glacier made a real difference on there genuine passion for the area. Highly recommend taking the trip it really is a wonderful memorable experience we will never forget.
For the extra flight time and views this felt the best value trip. My wife was so thrilled and we are both more than happy to recommend this very friendly and flexible company. Thanks guys.
This was an absolutely incredible experience the receptionist was very friendly and the pilot was very informative and friendly! The views were incredible, we got engaged on the glacier landing ? the pilot was so happy for us and took our pictures which turned out perfect! Well worth the money for this fantastic experience!
This flight was incredible, we had as perfect day , no clouds nor wind, so a very smooth experience, up close to the soaring snow peaks and landing on the Tasman glacier was a highlight! Felt very s as fe in our pilots capable hands, and enjoyed this flight immensely.
Amazing experience. The crew was really nice and the weather was perfect.
It was a great experience. We had a lot of time taking picture with the helicopter BUT when we trying to take picture with the ski plane , the pilot rush us and say no time ( cos he arrived quite late that’s why we got a long time taking picture at the helicopter ) and he doesn’t even help passenger up the seats , a bit not so polite else the whole experiences should have been a whopping
This was undoubtedly one of the highlights of our New Zealand adventure. The views of Mount Cook and the surrounding area were simply stunning. Our pilot was incredibly informative and helped ease the nerves of his passengers. To land on the glacier and to spend some time simply taking in the extraordinary scale of it was special. I can’t recommend this trip highly enough to anyone lucky enough to visit the area.
Our flight got delayed but it was worth the wait. Amazing experience! Highly recommended and our pilot was awesome. Thanks a ton!
This was an awesome experience. I’d recommend it to anyone who is visiting New Zealand.
it was awesome!
Good
Had our flight delayed one day due to weather. We then got the most perfect morning clear sky and hardly a breeze. Lucky to get a free upgrade to a 45min Tasman Glacier landing flight. Boy was this something to remember.
As a couple, we wouldn't normally spend so much on an 'experience', but felt this was pretty unique. It certainly didn't disappoint ! Our hosts, Poppy and Ross were so friendly and professional, I didn't have any nerves about the flight. It really is the best way to see the glacier and amazing landscape up close. Highly recommend to all.
Absolutely loved this!! We took our 3 teenagers and they too loved it. Would do it again in a heartbeat!
I rescheduled my flight super easy via phone. Couldn't happen on the arranged day due bad weather. Got new one for the next morning. And it happened. Our pilot was great and gave us super background information. I had the front seat which was great. Was my first ever helicopter flight, but surely not the last one. Highly recommend the trip. The landing on the Glacier was unreal. Absolut perfect day.
A stunningly beautiful setting to spend an hour or two soaking in the hot pools
This has to be the highlight of the past 15 months I’ve spent in this country. I couldn’t stop smiling! The staff are very professional and put your comfort above everything else. If they need to get another helicopter, they’ll do it, no question. It was my first time in a helicopter and first time over the twin glaciers. I had the best time! Thanks again!
Amazing, just wish we could have had more time in the private pool, 45mins flies by. However the main pools were fantastic too. Highly recommend
The private hot pool was amazing! Beautiful private changing facilities and the most epic outlook from the pool. Definitely want to come back! Bonus points for the lovely staff!
Definitely lived up to our expectations. Would go back again if we had the chance!
Good activity for a really wet day. Good disability facility in ladies change room but more mats needed between change room and pools. Good pools. Clean. Staff pleasant.
Loved how our tour guides are very passionate about their jobs! It was very informative and interesting. Got great shots of the glacier.
We had the most amazing experience! Our tour guide Jara was amazing; he was very knowledgeable about trees (challenging us to quiz him on any kind we saw!) and rocks (explained all about the formations and even pointed out where fault lines were). He was very into guiding us, which in turn, made us very into the tour! Such a positive experience and hope to return one day and do the heli-hike they run, too! Loved that we got to borrow all of the gear. Must do! Thank you, Jara + Team!!
Nick was a very knowledgeable and friendly guide. Lots of information was shared with us. It was an enjoyable and informative trip. I Would certainly recommend the guided walk.
It is something that you should do in Franz Josef glacier.
Awesome trip with guide Phil! I did expect a bit more from the helicopter ride (maybe a small circle above the glaciers instead of only dropping us off on the foot of the glacier?). Anyhow, great trip and I highly recommend it.
Our guide Michael and his team were absolutely fantastic. They were extremely knowledgeable and took care of us throughout the sometimes very tough terrain. It was a once in a lifetime experience which I would highly recommended to anyone.
Highly recommend. The guides are incredibly, very knowledgeable and keep you entertained. Spectacular views. Awesome Heli Ride.
Did 16,500ft jump and absolutely worth to go for it! Stunning views with Franz Josef Glacier, Fox glacier and mt cook! Tandem Henry, he is cool and nice because I was too nervous before the jump and he was patient to make me feel comfortable. Don’t hesitate, just jump!
We were unsure whether this VIP tour would be worth the extra money when there were no chicks to view, but our ranger Devon certainly proved us wrong. We learnt an absolute ton of information about kiwi birds and everything they do at the Centre. Was also great to see and learn about the Tuataras. Devon was super knowledgable and friendly. Seeing the kiwis in the nocturnal viewing area was just so special. Loved quietly watching them rustling around for food or running around in their areas. This place is doing such great work for wildlife and I’d recommend supporting their work by visiting.
So glad we paid extra for the backstage pass as I'd only have learnt about 10% if I'd just done the normal entry. We arrived early so had time to see the 2 live kiwi before doing the tour. The tour took about 45 mins and whilst the didn't have any kiwi eggs for us to look at we did get a really clear explanation of their life and trials. We then went back to see the kiwi again (it's a 48 hour pass you get). Brilliant An unexpected bonus was seeing the Tuatara and the glacier exhibit Highly recommended
Very enjoyable and I'm formative tour. Great to learn so much.
A lovely museum with lots to read! Still interactive enough to keep our 2 year old interested. Also had lunch at the cafe which was great.
A great time to be hold especially if you get their back stage pass. Will worth the money as it goes to the Kiwi & Tuatara. Once you done the back stage part it easy to spend plenty off time with the rest of the activities . Spend about 1/2 hour trying to see the kiwis, but they are there you just need to be patient and stands still to find them.
All the staff were fantastic to deal with, had to move the time as my helicopter flight was changed due to weather but it was no issue and they were happy to accommodate. Learnt a lot from the tour and the guide was a very knowledgeable, lovely lady. Definitely worth the price.
