If you are short of time and are not fit enough to do the HeliHike, the 20 min helicopter flight with snow landing is a great experience to bring you to the top and middle of the glacier to experience the magnificence of nature.

We were a group of 6 people including our greate guide Anna. Weather was absolutely perfect, without any cloud in the sky. We flew up to the Tasman glacier then we were walking on ice with crampons about two hours and then helicopter picked us on a different spot and we flew back. Anna told us a lot of interesting facts about glaciers and mountains and we felt safe for the whole time. We had many opportunities to make unique photos. Walking wasn't very hard, so it was more relaxing trip. We certainly recommend this experience.

An unreal experience that allowed us to see the glacier from a different perspective! Our second time doing this and it was just as incredible as the first time round! We recommend this to all our friends that travel to New Zealand. As the pilots say, if you can fly - fly, because you could travel to the West Coast 100 times and never get the chance due to weather. Make the most of the opportunity if it’s there!

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!

The heli hike was one of the most memorable things we have done in NZ. All the staff were super friendly and our guide Jon was really nice and informative. There was hardly any waiting around so you do get a lot of time on the ice. The price is very expensive but for an experience that you will probably only do once, it is fairly reasonable.

Approximately 12 h trip, totally worth it. The driver was nice, knowledgeable and funny. The time at Mt Cook was just enough to do one walk. The driver was kind to take photos of me. I totally recommended this trip if you are in Queenstown and have done Milford Sound.

We were lucky enough to have two guides take the small group of four that we were with on our day tour from Queenstown to Mount Cook. What a lovely day Shane and Kreig provided. The pace of the twelve hour trip was finally tuned and perfectly managed. There was interesting information provided along the way and a generally relaxed approach to how the day unfolded, which only added to the pleasant experience. Choices were made available as to how we spent our time at Mount Cook, which was also appreciated by us. All in all we had a fantastic day. Thank you Cheeky Kiwi Tours - a

We had such a great time. It was well organized and we felt completely safe the entire time. The helicopter flights were quick, but very cool. Our guide was very knowledgeable and fun. We got to explore ice caves and crevasses which were super cool. The company will provide you with proper boots, mitts, socks (all clean), rain jacket and cramp ons. These are included in your tour cost.

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.
