Now, you have the chance to experience this Historic and world-exclusive scenic flight, the Ultimate Alpine Combo, which allows you to fly in BOTH a Helicopter and a Ski Plane in one unforgettable product! You can't do anything like this anywhere else in the world.
Taking off, you will enjoy our country’s most incredible views as you soar your way up the Tasman Valley and over the breathtaking blue glacier lakes below. See the Hochstetter Icefall and the cloud-piercing Aoraki/Mt Cook before experiencing the highlight of your journey as you land on the upper snowfields of the Tasman Glacier. The aircraft will fully shut down on landing, allowing you to take in your surroundings, and giving you the perfect video and photo opportunity!
When you’re ready to depart, you’ll then switch aircraft for the ride back down the valley, using the Tasman Glacier as your runway below.

Absolutely amazing!!
That’s awesome to hear! So glad you had an amazing time! 😄✨
It was very underwhelming to be honest for the price. The return flight was quite bumpy made us nauseous. The time on snow pleasant but in all felt the experience was super expensive and didn’t leave a lasting memory for us.
Hi there, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the experience felt underwhelming for you, and that the return flight was bumpy and left you feeling unwell. Mountain flying conditions can occasionally create turbulence, although our pilots always do their best to minimize and avoid it where possible. We’re sorry this impacted your enjoyment of the trip. This experience is also a world-exclusive combination of both a ski plane and a helicopter flight in a single journey, and it’s something many of our guests describe as a highlight of their time in the region or in NZ- For that reason, your feedback is not something we commonly receive so we would love to know more. If you would be willing to share a little more detail about your experience, we would genuinely appreciate the opportunity to learn from it. Please feel free to contact us at [email protected]. Thank you again for taking the time to provide your feedback.
There was a meter of fresh snow on the glacier upon our arrival. Such a beautiful and enjoyable way to spend an hour!
Wow, a meter of fresh snow — that sounds incredible! ❄️ We’re so glad you had such a beautiful and enjoyable time on the glacier. Thanks for sharing your experience!
