무척이나 좋았습니다

헬기투어 당일아침 날씨가 흐려 걱정하였으나, 헬기는 구름을 뚫고 올라가 기대이상의 풍경을 보여 주었습니다. 마운트 쿡에 가신다면 꼭 헬기 체험을 경험해 보시라고 권해드립니다. 상상 그 이상 입니다.

환상적인 여행

예약한 날짜에 바람이 많이 불어 취소되고 다음날 예약을 다시하는 번거로움이 있었으나 이번 남섬 여행에서 가장 기억에 남는 Activity 였음. 말이 필요없음... Amazing... 별 100개...입니다.

That sounds amazing! 🏔️ Ten minutes of total silence at the top of the mountain — what a truly special experience. So glad you enjoyed it!

Beware: Seat Selection

The quality of the experience depends a lot on where you are seated. The helicopter can seat 2 passengers at the front and 4 in the row behind. If you are randomly assigned to be wedged in the middle two seats at the back you will not have a good time and it is very difficult to see any of the beauty outside. This is very disappointing, especially considering how expensive tickets are ☹️

Kia ora, Thank you for your feedback. Our seating arrangements are carefully managed based on weight and balance requirements to ensure a safe and smooth flight for everyone on board. For this reason, we do not offer seat selection, as seating is determined by the needs of the aircraft weight and balance. We understand that seat placement can impact the viewing experience, and while we do our best to accommodate all guests, safety must always come first. We appreciate your understanding and hope you were still able to take in the breathtaking scenery during your flight with us!
