Amazing! - The glazier landing was amazing, the snow was so soft we sunk down to our knees, which made it all the more fun experience for all of us. The pilot was informative and took great photos for us. Perfect weather conditions made it an amazing experience, even though we didn't get to fly over Fox Glazier as the weather closed in quite quickly. Landing on Franz Josef was awesome though.

The Hangover Crew were spoiled with our flight , our pilot and the nicest company to deal with . - We got so lucky with the weather , the pilot Ken (he was so nice to us ) . The flight was spectacular and we received a little extra air time (2 extra landings) which also was special .

Markovic on Tour in NZ - Don’t bring bags or selfie sticks; you’ll have to leave these at the office otherwise. Brilliant value for money. Excellent staff with great sense of humour. Gave us Aussies heaps of lip, deserved it all. The lady chopper pilot pulled out all the tricks to Fox and Franz Joseph Glaciers. What a wonderful experience.

A Sensational "Bucket List" Experience - This experience should be on everyone's "bucket list" - it was Sensational !! After a comprehensive safety briefing we hopped inside our immaculately presented helicopter with lots of windows and was warmly welcomed by our very experienced Pilot. I'd forgotten just how awesome helicopters were. The flight was very smooth and we saw everything - mountains, villages and glaciers. Landing on the snow was also very special. We took many photographs. From the ground you actually see very little and it is not until you are in the air that you can appreciate this truly awesome and vast wilderness. From the booking to landing everything was very well managed.

Excellent experience - We had an excellent flight to both Franz Josef and Fox glaciers. The views were exceptional and the experience one of the highlights of our visit to New Zealand. The helicopters can carry 6 persons, so if you go for the cheapest one (to Franz Josef only) you can expect it to be full. The twin glacier tour was only booked by us (3 persons), so we had a private tour.

Quite simply WOW!!! - What an AMAZING experience!! Our day started with disappointment when our original company cancelled our flight due to the cloudy conditions. We contacted HeliServicesNZ & they were confident the weather would change sufficiently to be able to fly & they were right!! Big thanks to Aaron for his customer service & great chat! Words can’t adequately express the spectacular views during the flight & the touchdown on the glacier will live long in our memories! Ken, our pilot gave us his very knowledgeable commentary throughout our flight & was so kind in photographing us all on the ice…thank you!! If you get the chance, definitely do this & book with HeliServicesNZ!!!

Twin glacier helicopter trip with spectacular views - On Distant Journeys tour and this was an ‘add on’. So glad we went, it was the most fabulous experience. Our pilot (Geordie) was excellent and after landing on Franz Glacier we then went up and over the ridge to view the Tasman Glacier. The views over the alps were beyond spectacular and the Tasman Glacier was amazing to view from above. A superb 30 minute tour and worth every penny.
