Shoutout to our Skydiver Masters to Luke and Rudolf. They took all the efforts to make us comfortable and relax. The Video was worth the money and it was great. Safety is there primary important. Thank you NZONE.
The highlight of our time in Queenstown - an absolute must do. Spectacular!
Experience the true beauty of Queenstown and Milford Soubd with friendly staff.
This was one of those spur of the moment bookings… and boy am I glad we did it. The whole experience was spectacular. Definitely recommend it for seeing the beauty of queenstown from a different perspective. Unreal! Thank you!
Got to land on The Remarkables. It was amazing. Would love to do it again but during winter!
On the 22nd December 2022, we took our Dad on an helicopter ride as that was on his bucket list before he passed. Heliworks went out of their way to make it the best experience for our Dad who enjoyed it so much. I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you so much for making it an unforgettable day for him.
Excellent ! Amazing experience and staff. Phil was our pilot and he was great, very patient with us taking lots of photos on the Remarkables. Worth what you pay. Would definitely recommend.
It was realy cool for first flight. Thats why 4 stars. The company is realy god, I prefer they. If I just rate the flight and duration and everything together and check all other options then just 3 stars. If you have a bit more money for the flight, go a longer one. :) The flight duration was maximum 7-10 minutes with take off and landing and most of the time we taked some pictures and saw the view. But it was cool. Top of the mountain was a small snow but we can not go there because it was behinde the helicopter. :(
Bill was an amazing pilot and we loved the experience! Landing in the snow was the icing on the cake.
It was awesome. The views up there are mind blowing. Unforgettable experience.
Had a first time good experience, the views were stunning
The driver was very knowledgeable and we stopped for lots of photo oppurtunities. This was our third trip to Milford Sound and learnt some new info from the very knowledgeable driver. The boat in Milford Sound was comfortable with the Captain taking the boat close to lot of waterfalls and near all the points of interest for us to take heaps of pictures. The recommendation to newbies is to choose October(Spring) as the month to visit Milford Sound. The roads do not have that much snow and at the same time the temprature is Not too Hot or Cold and you will have a better chance to enjoy your trip like we did. All in all an Awesome Trip executed to perfection!
Landing on top of a snow capped mountain was amazing
Our first helicopter ride, it was such an experience. Will def do it again. Longer would be icing on the cake. Highly recommended.
The flight itself was cruisey and the pilot was very informative. He took the time to take photos of my partner and I as well as the other two girls who flew with us which was great! The snow landing was amazing, as were the beautiful views!
Had never been in a helicopter before so didn’t know what to expect. I get motion sickness with flying and boats so I was really worried about that - but no issues at all with the helicopter ride. The views were spectacular with the snow, it really was breathtaking. It was also special being somewhere that would have been difficult to get to by foot!
We had an amazing flight 20 mins views were amazing
Great experience and would definitely do it again. Friendly pilot and the weather was great (late October-little bit of snow)
Pick up and drop off was arranged and free of charge, ground staff are friendly and helpful. Pilot Scotty was nice, excellent view and experience, our two mothers and 3 yr old son enjoyed it very much! Love the snow landing. Highly recommended.
Absolutely loved the electric go-karting. So much better than fuel karts. The laser tag was also way better than expected (even if I did have the worst score in the end).
My son and i loved it. Lots of fun and so beautiful
The lake was pretty rough but the jet boat operator do e a really good job. Well done to her. Great trip
Me and my girlfriend wanted to do something memorable after living here for six months and we weren't disappointed :) - The pilot took us up and the weather was perfect so the views were absolutely spectacular !
It was raining when we did it but it was still fun! Another way of checking out Lake Wakatipu and a lil quick activity that can easily be done in between things. I'm glad I did it on an empty stomach, book it in early and then have brunch.
One of the best experiences so far! Such a fun ride, heaps of spins and it was so much fun getting wet! Definitely recommend doing this! The views were amazing!!
Garreth as the Pilot and Bill as the co pilot did an absolutely amazing flight. Taking us to the tops of the Remarkables to see the billion $$$ views. Smooth and safe flight with lots of hours between the Pilot and co Pilot! The pleasant journey was worth every dollars we have spent! Off the plane and on the cruise was easy and Cruise was incredible to see all the beauty that Milford Sound had to offer. I wish they sell some Wine or beer at the Cruise ?. Back to plane after cruise and off we went! We started flying 12.10pm and were back in Queenstown by 4.15pm. The best 8-10 hrs that I have saved to explore more of Queenstown. Will recommend this for sure!
Go Orange!! Awesome ride. Spins and thrills and chilled vibes too. Our driver was awesome and full of Dad jokes haha. Highly recommend!!
Such a great half-day in the snow! Our guide, Ben, was excellent and ensured we got the most from our time on the mountain. If you’re looking for something a little different, or off the beaten track, or even a good workout, then this might be for you. The views were amazing and the cup of tea at the top was a great touch. Highly recommended!
We were lucky, we had the perfect weather, went up to cecil peak hopped out had a play in the snow Well worth doing!!!!
Great time with the guys from KJet. Highly recommended, loads of fun.
Fantastic ride!!! From the beginning at the kiosk lady, to the driver, most friendly and accommodating. Loved the experience!!@
Had a really great time on the 1hr Jet Boat Ride with RealNZ. Really pleased we went for the 1hr, as 25mins would have been over WAY too soon! Our guide/driver was fun & friendly, and gave some background to places around the lake and the areas we zipped through - when we paused! (Even let two people off half way as they felt sick!). It was great fun, lots of jetting passed obstacles and 360 spins... always with pre-warning, so you could hold on tight! The beautiful weather helped of course. It was CHILLY though in the breeze, so you need to wrap up warm - and hold on to your hats. Literally!
We went at a pretty quiet time so got a small boat and had a great time. Lots of lovely scenery and fun spins, remember to wear sunglasses though because it was pretty bright!
We were lucky to have a sunny day and it was worth every minute. Epic mountain views, turquoise waters and of course, the good old adrenaline rush!
it was awesome ride ?, 25 minutes too short, i’ll do 1h next time! ??
Great experience, we were picked up and dropped out at our accommodation by Zac who was very friendly. Our pilot was Scotty and the flight was amazing I would recommend this to anyone going to Queenstown.
Wow, this was my first heli ride and it was so amazing and great experience. All Black helicopter with a skilled pilot, thank you Michael for our bonus landing ? you are awesome man and thanks for taking us photos.
What I liked is the location, in town close don't have to organise or pay extra for pick up etc. Great opportunity to see the lake and scenery as well as having fun, not boring at all. Thanks Levi for driving us.
Pilot was awesome
