I am so happy that I opted for this wonderful band most memorable adventurous activity.Thanks to the experienced pilot.! Nashi
Price was great. Pictures and videos awesome. Nice people working there. Nothing more to say, just do it!
Great and friendly instructor, very safe and awesome view of Wanaka
Richard and team are very experience in what they do. My 7 year old and my wife loved the beautiful scenery and flying over this beautiful place. It’s a must do activity if you are in Wanaka or Queenstown.
This is definitely a must-do in Wanaka! Pedro, our guide is so professional and friendly at the same time! Shared quite abit of climbing tips with us! He took great care of our group of 3! You never want to miss this because the scenery is so worth it! And there are chances for you to take YOLO photos! Every step I climbed makes me want to climb more! Love it!
Our experience was absolutely amazing. I definitely reccomend it to anyone who 's looking for something to make their south island trip extra memorable. Thanks to the very friendly staff who gave us an upgrade ?
This was one of the highlights of my trip! Dan is a great guy, relaxed, easy to talk to, knowledgeable, and a good driver - which is very important given the road you’re travelling on. The scenery is breathtaking and I came home with some stunning photographs.. my favourites being the ones Dan took of me. He knew all the best places to go and would stop whenever I wanted. I was also the only one on the tour so it was great having my own private tour guide. You can pay the same and end up in a full van. This was great value for money and I can’t recommend it highly enough! Do it!!
Our helicopter pilot made us feel very comfortable; he pointed out lots of landmarks, was very knowledgeable, and funny. The flight was smooth and absolutely beautiful. Being able to get out on top of the mountain was such a surreal experience, it was breathtaking. Everyone should experience NZ like this!
We had an excellent experience with pilot Kurt last month. Kurt was very knowledgeable of the area, pointing out landmarks and homes of significance. We couldn't do a Remarkables landing due to the weather so we landed on another mountain instead which was still perfect! Kurt took photos of us which was really appreciated. They provided a great shuttle experience which collected us from our hotel, taking us out to the Heliworks depot then dropped us back off in town afterwords. I would highly recommend the team at Heliworks. They made this whole experience incredible from booking to end. Thanks team!
I must have live a boring life as this is rated as the best experience in my life. However, one must understand that I have never been in a helicopter and on snow. It was a seamless experience from beginning to the end. The intern from Hamilton picked me up and we chatted quite a bit. He is a great young guy who also recommended places up in North Island. The check in people were great as well. The pilot was experienced and took us to a beautiful spot where we spent enough time to experience snow and the view and also recording them in videos and photos. I was grateful to be seated at the front and did not waste that with recording as many videos as I possibly can. Thumbs up to everyone at The Helicopter Line. Thank you for providing such a great service coupled by amazing experience.
Stoked about the experience. Never thought I could ever experience that but I did. Good value for money. The best 20 minutes i've ever had in Queenstown.
It was an awesome experience, stunning view. Highly recommended. Staff are nice.
Had a great flight up to the top of a mountain overlooking Skippers Canyon .Landed and took some great photos. What a blast 2 degrees .
A brilliant session on the lake with See It was only the second time I have been wakeboarding and Seb made it a real success by explaining everything simply whilst being easy going and easy to get along with. I would highly recommend wakeboarding with Seb at Wanaka! One of the highlights of our NZ trip so far, thanks Seb!
The day was so perfect. Seb let me use his board and play my music as we had perfect glass and weather for the session. We got to stop and take some drone footage that was awesome. Those are the kind of days you live for. Will go again next time I’m in Wanaka!
This is fantastic. We would do it again at the drop of a hat. Our excellent guide James was knowledgeable and funny. What a great asset he is to the company. From pickup and drop off nothing can be faulted. Highly recommend this to everyone not just tourists. Thanks guys ?
Staff were friendly and organised. We got straight into it and had 2 too long runs and about 3/4 from Jack’s Spot - 3 hours riding - so much fun!! And spectacular views! Down to Velo for lunch / chicken nachos 👌 Top day. Thank you.
Splashed out on a 3hr can-am session and couldn’t have had a better day. Rachel our driver was awesome, the trails were running mint and we had three runs from the top. Couldn’t have asked for anything more …
Had an epic day out at Bike Glendhu, couldn't believe the value for money with the BookMe Trail pass. The views were exceptional, the tracks were super fun and our whole group had the best day out together with tracks catering to all levels. Finished the day off with a drink down at the base, and the service was fantastic. Cannot wait to get back on the mountain the next time we're in Wanaka.
Bike park is more of a mix XC and downhill. Good stuffs too at the cafe!
Such a fun well formed MTB park - suitable for all levels. Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
Great experience from start to finish. Bridget kept us up to date after 1st trip was cancelled due to the weather. Andrew picked us up on time and pilot Ewan was great pointing things out during the flight and even warning us when to expect a wee bump or two. Cruise was also brilliant. The captain and crew kept us well informed. We’re worth the cost.
We had Pete as our pilot in queenstown and and it was such an amazing experience! we felt safe through out the whole experience and it made our honeymoon unforgettable. it's definitely worth the price and a once in a life time experience with beautiful views and sob much fun. we did the 50 minute scenic flight with alpine snow landing and its something we'll remember forever. thanks Pete!
Scenic flight + Hands on PILOT experience. The pilot and the team are so friendly. Pilot lets you even have a go with the take off and landing as well. Amazing views from the top.
Loved the trip - expensive of course but totally worth it for the time saved and the fantastic views from the plane!! The flight was even better than the cruise! The crew from True South Flights was really friendly and professional. Fully recommend!
Yep that's all I can say is AWESOME got some amazing photos, the staff are so great, my flight was rescheduled due to the worst rain ever, the staff booked me in for the next day & as I was coming from Wanaka I had to ring really early to see if the trip would be on & there was someone at the end of the phone which I was surprised about so a big plus for me. I would defiantly recommend these guys.
Whilst Milford Sound in its own right is a place of majestic beauty and grandiosity, the flight from Queenstown to Milford with True South Flight, was a real gem! So much beauty seen, so much interesting and valuabke information given by our friendly and professional pilote, Kevin (?). More than worth its price!
We has the most fantastic day imaginable. The staff at True South Flights were were friendly, efficient and thoughtful. Our pilot, Jason was very friendly, professional and provided added value with his insights and tips. The flight over the mountains allowed us to experience a side of the country that can't be seen otherwise,with scenery so breath takingly beautiful that the experience even feels a bit surreal. You will have to pinch yourself to be reminded that you aren't dreaming. I can whole heartedly recommend it without any reservation.
I had a wonderful tour with Wanaka River Journeys. Our guide, Ben, was sharing many informational facts about the region throughout the whole journey and he was a joy to be around. From the pick up, the short drive to the boat take off, and the boat tour itself...I felt very taken care of by staff. Thank you for a great experience!
A wonderful ride up, a great view. Would have been nice to have a bigger walk at the top. But all good and well organised.
Stunning views from the top
Due to limited numbers, we were lucky enough to receive an upgrade to a longer flight. Our pilot was friendly and informative and told us all about the area up in the air. The ride was smooth and he took us over the mountains and right up against the ice from both sides so that everyone could get pictures. It was an amazing experience. Then we landed down in the valley and were given time to walk around and take pictures. Again the pilot was more than happy to take pictures for you. It was a great experience and I highly recommend it.
