Pack a lunch and throw stones in the lake, or on the ice in winter. Great way to spend the day in Mt Cook

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.

One of the best short walks in NZ, takes about 3 hours there and back. Can start from the car park here or walk from the village. Has 3 large swing bridges like this, and.a glacial lake at the end.

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.

Awesome experience. Dan (pilot) was fantastic and very informative and the check in staff were great too. Highly recommended.

Speechless. It was so wonderful!

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!

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.

I enjoyed this short and sweet experience. My son enjoyed it most. Highly recommended.

A great trip had by myself & Fiona. Landing on the snow was our biggest highlight as well as having a talk with Tim our pilot. The young woman at the office was very friendly and looked after us very when taking us to the chopper pad.

I tried to get a flight booked from every place traveling from Wellington too Queenstown on the off chance I looked on line came accross bookme .co.nz and they managed to get me on a Helicopter Fight at Franz Josef I cannot put into words how wonderful it was to see the Glacier powerful magic such a privilege Marion

It was absolutely fantastic! Thoroughly enjoyed every minute. The helicopter pilot was brilliant. Highly recommend the experience!

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.

Absolutely fantastic experience to be landing on Franz Joseph glacier.

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!!

We booked at 3PM but the staff allowed us to join 1PM flight then they could fulfill the flight capacity and we did not have risk from 3PM flight cancellation on unmet minimum flight capacity. While I was there, they allowed only to fly from Fox. There was no flight from Franz Josep anymore so I needed to change my plan to Fox earlier to catch the flight even I booked Franz Josep. Stunning view during the flight for both Glaciers in departure and returning. The snow landing on Mt Cook was magnificent. we landed on fresh snow with clear blue sky. 10 minutes there was worth.

An extraordinary experience! Many thanks Nathan and Kirsty for taking such amazing care of our family. With three teenage boys you certainly presented us with truly magnificent memories for a lifetime. We loved your commentary throughout the trip, with a perfect mix of facts and interesting information to appeal and maintain the interest of the adolescent brain. We are also very grateful for the personalized nature of the trip! We will be sharing this amazing experience and your very impressive service with friends and family and shouting out to the world a truly extraordinary experience! Many thanks

Was great to meet this amazing people and have a great experience. They gave us enough time and took time to explain and answer all our questions. Very caring and genuine. Was a great ride and experience must do it.

The views were absolutely amazing! A great experience - thanks to great staff

the view is so stunning plus the weather is nice. very friendly staff and pilot.

Went down to the Fox Glacier office in the afternoon before our scheduled flight the next day, and was offered a flight right away. So up we went for a amazing flight up the Fox Glacier and right around Mt. Cook, because the cloud was down over Franz Josef. It was great the we could go a day early and modify the flight to suit conditions. We all really enjoyed the flight and commentary. Poured the next day with no flights

First time ever in a helicopter, and it was amazing! We had a small 5 person helicopter, and it was so agile. We also had a perfect day for this acitivity, which is the highlight of our NZ visit

Land on the top of the mountain to enjoy the amazing view. Really a fantastic experience, must try and you will not regret, is worth!

A must do in NZ whether your visiting or a local like us ! We are so happy with our experience amazing views everywhere you look. This experience is weather dependent and if they fill the flight so I recommend staying in Franz Josef or fox glacier.

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!

From the moment we walked into our safety briefing and were given appropriate clothing our concerns faded and excitement built. Sherpa was an amazing guide with plenty of stories, wicked sense of humour, experience and we felt safe in his hands. We'd never been in a helicopter, let alone on a Glacier. We were truly humbled by nature and the experience. The girls back in the office/shop were so caring for the next group to fly up. With the bad weather moving in and another company cancelling the groups helihike the night before all these wonderful women wanted was for them to have some time on the ice and have that experience. Bravo 👏 👏 what an amazing team you have

Very exhilirating! Must do! Worth every penny! Great friendly knowledgeable staff!

Second time on the Fox Glacier with this company. Ryan our Glacier guide was friendly, informative and caring. A must do tour.

We had a great day exploring the glaciers. The staff were really helpful. We weren't sure whether to do the 2 heli flights with one 10 min landing or the heli hike. We're so glad we chose the heli hike as it was definitely worth it!

Fully recommend this and our guide Nathan was amazing and made sure we got to experience everything to the fullest.

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.
