Yes, it's a tour of a field! However Dawn provided us with lots of information and anecdotes about the filming of the battle, as well as some filming tips. We also had the opportunity to hold replica swords and flags for photographs. Would recommend to any LOTR fan!
Fantastic experience Great communication from Pilot Would recommend upgrading from 1/2 hour flight to a longer one
My Husband is obsessed with LOTR so we we had to book to visit The Pelennor Fields! We were not disappointed & both really got a lot out of the day - we thoroughly enjoyed it! Our guide had only been in his job for 2 weeks (in Nov 2017) but this was not noticeable as he had so much knowledge and really added to the experience. The extra activities that I didn't expect such as getting to see props from the films and really getting an understanding of how so much was filmed in one location, truly made the tour. I could not recommend this tour enough to fans of LOTR and even those who just have an interest in film making.
Fab tour and we definitely got our money’s worth. -very informative -hands on experience -felt comfortable to ask questions -tour lady was friendly -felt like the tour was tailored to our likes/dislikes -small group -cool props
Firstly Dawn, the lady that runs the tour, is absolutely amazing. It’s great to go around with someone who has such a genuine passion for what she is talking about and has actually had first hand experience of it all and personal stories too! It’s a great tour for anyone who loves the films and even if you haven’t it’s great to hear about the film set and the problems they had to overcome etc! In total, a great tour with an even better lady! =]
Dawn is an incredibly friendly and knowledgeable host, the entire experience was exciting and interesting. The location is absolutely beautiful and has plenty of great photo ops!
amazing.. you only live once
This has been the most exhilarating experience of my life. Thank you to all the Inflite staff. I was completely awe struck. The adrenaline rush was out of this world. The views were amazing and probably the best way to view the mountains, rivers and lakes surrounding Lake Pukaki. I'm hooked and want to go higher for my next jump. Have convinced the family to do the next one with me. I felt so safe and once the initial jump out of the plane a sense of calm came over me due to the scenery that lay before me. Thank you to everyone at Inflite. I will be back.
I am 69 and this was my first dive. An experience I will remember. I was well looked after by the staff and special thanks to my instructor..Nico and photographer Nic. All combined to ensure I had an enjoyable first dive. Thank you all...
This was a gift for my 15yr old Son and although we got rescheduled to an early Sun morning start it couldn't have been more perfect. The team there was great and my son thoroughly enjoyed himself and now wants to jump again even higher!
We upgraded to 13000ft whilst there and it was frigan amazing. It was our first jump and you couldn't have asked for a better crew, 110%recommend this. Videos and photos are expensive starting at $150pp so be prepared for that but it is normal prices from what I have seen. GO DO IT you won't regret it
員工很友善,價格和其他家比相對便宜!
What an absolutely crazy experience! Absolutely amazing team, clearly have done this a million times before, and the views could not be better. Would very highly recommend!
Have done 15.000ft., unforgettable experience, awesome guys from Skydive Mt Cook.. Thank You! :)
Amazing experience and awesome staff with wealth of experience. Will be back one day to do it all again. Thank you guys for this lifetime experience
Fully sick epic experience everyone has to do that before they die. Still buzzing days later. Doing that again see you soon
Absolutely amazing experience and super cool staff!!
Great centre with interesting people. Offered to change our timeslot as our booked date weather wasn't good in forecast. Preparation was done appropriately and the instructor given us much confident of what we going to do. Camera crew also did a great job! Special shout out to Lana (Banana) who made our day even brighter with her sense of humour.
Amazing, great crew super professional in a friendly way. My wife didn't dive yet they made her a part of the experience. Best views ever mountains lake, if I dive again would be from here only. Only thing I would have preferred a more cheaper media pack $189 is a bit expensive, but then again u have a video for life
Where to start on the positive experience.... the cameraman drove nearly 45 minutes just to pick me up because they weren’t offering a shuttle yet. From the moment I stepped In the car I felt welcomed as he was playing the band Alice n’ Chains from my home town of Seattle! I had the pleasure of being one of the first people ever to dive with skydive Mt cook! Felt very safe! I highly recommend getting the best of both worlds package with the photography and video! And most certainly go from 15,000ft!
so excited
It was the most amazing experience I've ever done in my life!! The weather was perfect, and the view was stunning! All of staffs were super friendly, fun and made me feel so welcomed and comfortable :) I was getting more nervous when we were about to jump, but I didn't have to fear as I had a professional with me! My tandem master Jamie was very friendly, encouraging and reliable throughout the whole experience. Thanks so much! :D Overall, I would definitely recommend this to anyone. You will have such an unforgettable experience and good memory.
Amazing experience with Skydive Mt Cook! Friendly instructor Nick who is very professional and humorous the way he did briefing prior departure. Awesome! Thank you!
I had an excellent deal here on bookme. My Swedish pilot was great company, entertaining, professional and let me steer the glider for a couple of minutes. We even made a couple of loops! Highly recommended.
We were 2 friends flying the same day. We were able to fly in the same time which is really cool! I enjoyed very much the views and the thrills! The flight lasted a bit longer than 30mns and I did some aerobatics (not mandatory but really fun!). My pilot was friendly, explained me everything! On the other hand, my friend got sick because of turning a lot above the mountain and her pilot was not as friendly, and didn't offer her to pilot or anything. I recommend this to do something different and to see NZ from above. Totally worth it with bookme price and good weather!
Worth every dollar. Omarama os one of the best spots in the world for gliding, so for a forst tome experience it was incredible.Skilled pilots, amazing views and even a chance to feel the glider yourself. Recommend!
This is a bucket list must do! There's nothing to compare to gliding quietly,like a bird, over the hills & rivers at Omarama ????
I had the most of the best experience in my life! And I’m so lucky the weather is super fine which made the gliding even more awesome! The pilot is so informative and fun and we did the ‘competition end’ which is so thrilling and amazing as I love adrenaline rush. She also let me take control of the glider, and that is something I will never forget! Thank you glide-Omarama, really an experience of a lifetime!
