Our guides Andy & Nick made the tour. It was funny and educational.
They were very friendly, safe and informative. Well worth the money!
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 ;)
Our first trip got cancelled due to low lying cloud, so flew the following and had an absolute bluebird! Well run company, organized, would have been nice to fly a little further or over the glacier before or after the hike just to really take in how big it truly is! Tom our glacier leader was incredible, very enthusiastic
Definately one of the best tours we have ever done while travelling. Staff are top notch, big thanks to our guide Ben who kept up the enthusiasm all afternoon and took us to some cool places off the beaten track (anyone wanna squeeze through a cravesse?).
The best experience & Sam the guide was incredible!!
Everything is excellent.
We are lucky that the weather is so nice, the sky is clear and so blue. The glacier is very wonderful. Everything is so cool.???
What an awesome thing to do. Beautiful sight from the air and a great landing on the glacier.
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!
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
Wow! What an absolutely fantastic place to take a helicopter ride. The scenery is absolutely picturesque and landing on top of the mountain just feels like you’re in another world. The staff were all extremely friendly and professional and made the experience that much more enjoyable. Mum and I absolutely loved this and we couldn’t recommend it any more highly!
Awesome experience. Dan (pilot) was fantastic and very informative and the check in staff were great too. Highly recommended.
Good expérience ! Very professional and funny
We absolutely loved this trip. A must do in a life time
We were so lucky to get the opportunity to do this. Perfect weather. Awesome views during the flight and nothing can compare to landing on Fox Glacier. Would definitely do it again!
Amazing ride Andrew was informative and guided us well and to top that we got an upgrade ???
Lucked out with the weather. Absolutely stunning. This is my 3rd ride over the glaciers and by far the best. Highly recommend
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!
We flew with a pilot named Chris and he was amazing. The whole experience was beyond enjoyable!! Highly recommend. Thank you thank you thank you!
We flight at 1pm for the twin glaciers with landing. It was awesome, great pilot and nice staff. Highly recommend
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!
Amazing! We were very blessed to have perfect weather. From the service at the front desk to our pilot Mike who took us up to the top of the mountain, the whole experience was awesome and the ride was very surreal. Definitely recommend this if you’re ever in Franz Josef. My family loved it and want to do this again when we come back.
It was definitely worth the money. It’s a completely different view from the top. The pilot was also very nice and explained a little bit during the helicopter flight.
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!
Our flight was postponed due to the weather. Staff changed it smoothly without hassle. With the price in here, worth to grab if you want to land on snow plus a few minutes of flight around.
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.
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.
Amazing flight great pilot knew he’s stuff would definitely recommend this
Amazing experience, very friendly staff, our pilot Andrew was great.
It was an amazing experience! A big thank you to Happy Andy for taking us safely. My kids and I enjoyed it thoroughly. Highly recommend it!
We did the twin glacier flight - what an amazing experience. We loved it. Friendly staff, professional pilot and simply awesome landscape. The landing on the ice was really special. Do it, you won’t regret it.
