We loved the helicopter ride despite the fact that we only did half of our originally booked trip (The weather was not very cooperative and we could not fly over Franz Josef). It really was the highlight of our honeymoon.The pilot was very informative and nice. The helicopter is for max of 5-6 people, which allows for a nice view from any seat. Highly recommend this company.
The helicopter flight is too good to believe. This is the best part of our New Zealand trip indeed. The view up to the glacier is too gorgeous to describe. can’t recommend more. Special thanks to the staff Ada and Cameron, super helpful and nice. Love them.
