Great activity with stunning views

Great activity for both beginners and experienced riders. If you know what to do you can canter while beginners are safe behind with an instructor. Amazing feeling to be back at the saddle. Stunning views and opportunity for perfect photos with a glacier at the background. Can highly recommend it ;)

Lake Matheson is a true natural beauty and I'm so glad I visited it through the eco tour. We were a small group of three people and our guide, Rose, was just great! She gave us so many information about the plants and creatures living in the surroundings and was very prepared to answer all our questions. Plus the hot chocolate and cookies in front of the lake was the best way to enjoy the amazing view. I would definitely recommend this trip! :)

Our guide Ben was so knowledgeable about the plants and tiny orchids in the forest on the Lake Matheson walk that we learned a lot from him. We were blessed with good weather and have fantastic sunset views of Lake Matheson. With Ben’s advice we managed to capture some lovely photos of not only the lake but also some tiny orchids. Thank you Ben for an excellent tour.

Experiencing this tour at sunset was magical. The photo opportunities of the glacial reflections in the lake were unbelievable. Having a guided tour with Cliff was fantastic and made the experience all that much better.

An amazing experience. Yes it’s super touristy with many helicopters flying but to be able to fly over and land on the glacier next to rainforest is a unique thing to do. We loved it! And we very lucky with the weather as cloud came down after grounding helicopters and the next day it’s pouring with rain. Don’t hesitate. Do it!

An amazing experience with perfect weather on the day we landed on the Franz Josef glacier. Our pilot Victor was great and very helpful, assisting us with taking our photos after we landed. Unfortunately the staff at the Helicopter Line office were rude and had also overbooked our initial flight so we needed to reschedule for the following day.

Words cannot really describe the thrill of standing on the Glacier and seeing how huge and white it is. The helicopter ride is awesome...You can see waterfalls and the cracks in the ice on the journey up plus alpine huts etc. Pilots and ground crew are experienced and knowledgeable. Treat yourself!

Great company and the staff were prompt gave us indications when we could go or not due to weather. I’d definitely recommend doing the twin glacier with snow landing as so much to see and awesome to land on the snow! Enjoyed it very much. Pilot was experienced and friendly. Would go again in the winter time!

Franz Josep Glacier Helicopter

Even only 20 minutes ride but has a great time fly over the mountain seeing the glacier and landing on the white snow mountain site. Was a wonderful experience to remember. The service was good and the front desk customer service trying their best to arrange our ride even on that day we arrived the helicopter not able to fly due to cloudy weather, made two attempt rescheduled to fly on that day and finally only the 3rd attempt in the next morning the weather favor us to fly to the mountain. The pilot was great & skilfull, not only flying the helicopter but did help us to took a few snap during the landing. To those who wish to ride/fly, recommeded to try this Helicopter agency.

I was worried when we arrived since the front desk staff didn’t seem very happy for us to be there but then Tanner arrived to take us to the helicopter and he was very friendly. Next we met Sam, our pilot, who was also great! He made the short trip really enjoyable and informative and the helicopter ride was very fun! I would definitely do it again!

This experience was genuinely one of the best things I’ve ever done in my life. The weather played a role and we weren’t able to go to the fox glacier on the day, but we still managed to go all around franz josep and land on the glacier for some time. And after that, the rain and wind came in, so we were the last flight for the day - magic! Our pilot was lovely and indulged all my tourist tendencies with my photos :) and he was very knowledgeable about the glacier itself, which made the ride even more interesting. The team at helicopter line were superb - very friendly and helpful and made the whole experience just a joy from start to finish. Couldn’t recommend this enough - you will not regret it
