They were very friendly, safe and informative. Well worth the money!
Our guides Andy & Nick made the tour. It was funny and educational.
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.
Weather is perfect. If you went on summer, do not wear too much, a T shirt is fine. They will provide you jacket and pants. It’s gonna be so hot when you start walking!!
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.
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!
Speechless. It was so wonderful!
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 ;)
Absolutely fantastic experience to be landing on Franz Joseph glacier.
The staff at Glacier Helicopters made our experience unforgettable. From the moment we checked in to the moment our flight finished, the experience was just jaw droppingly beautiful! A massive THANK YOU to all the staff and especially our pilot Sam, he is a legend and a geniune nice guy!
Staff very friendly and lots of knowledge. We had a stunning Bluebird day. Was my first time in a helicopter and a breathtaking experience, the views were stunning, landing on the glacier was amazing. Definitely recommended.
Such an incredible experience, thank you guys so much for fitting us in and being flexible with the time mess up. A real highlight in our year in new Zealand
This was amazing! I Highly recommend the whole experience ! The staff are really helpful and nice and the view is just amazing !
A fantastic scenic & snow landing! Would do it again on a heartbeat 💗 Thank you Glacier Helicopter x
Fantastic, I was worried 20 minutes would be too short but it was absolutely great. Worth every penny!
Everyone was so helpful and kind. The weather looked bad for the day I had booked and the staff rearranged my flight for the next day no problem. Beautiful day, friendly and professional staff, awesome experience.
Will deffinetly recommend to everyone.Breathtaking viwes?
This was our first time in a helicopter so it was fun but scary! The scenery above the mountain range was incredible and there was about six inches of fresh snow on the glacier when we landed. The time slot we had booked for was not flying because of the weather but the tour company simply moved us to a later slot on the afternoon and thankfully the weather had cleared by then! This is a great tour for people who want the glacier experience without spending hours tramping over the ice.
Great company. Very caring and helpful staff. A great experience flying to the glacier. Highly recommend this company
Well organised. Highly recommended. Must do rather than walk! You can’t really see anything from the ground.
First time in a helicopter for me so this really was a dream fulfilled. Just awestruck by the landscape, what an amazing experience. Staff and pilot were fab.
It was very good time for our first scenic and snow landing flight. Great experience!
Staff very friendly, short ride from office to the heli pad, beautiful flight up to the glacier and more time on the glacier than anticipated. No other heli near us so it felt like un-touched and pristine landscape. Absolutely one of the best experiences of a life time! A must do for any travelers or Kiwis!
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!
Amazing, pilot Cody was awesome, the girls in Franz Josef office went out of their way to help. Top notch customer service. Would highly recommend.
WOW is all I can say. Breathtaking views and money well spent. 200% recommendable!!!
Wonderful helicopter experience with spectacular views, brilliant pilot commentary and great fun stopping on the glacier. With bookme discount it an amazing product and price!!!
It was all fantastic great weather and a worthwhile and fantastic flught
This has been one of the most amazing experiences. From Kaitlyn (ground support) to Clark (Pilot) ,they were enthusiastic, genuinely helpful individuals who ensured our flight was safe, informative, and fun. Clark certainly made us feel special and landed us on fresh, untouched snow. Thanks for the unforgettable flight
We are very excited for it. However the weather was cloudy and we were not able to land and walking on the glaciers. So the staff said we need contact with you for claiming a refund. Please do it for me. Thank you.
We had a wonderful experience from start to finish and highly recommend this trip to everyone :)
