See the jaw-dropping scale and beauty of two glittering glaciers in Franz Josef during this 35 minute scenic flight. Be amazed by the impressive ice architecture from a unique vantage point, and enjoy a spellbinding snow landing with time for photos if weather permits.
Soar over a dazzling icy show during this 35 minute scenic flight. You'll be lifted up above the Franz Josef Glacier and either the Fox or Tasman Glaciers, flying among shimmering toothy mountains and majestic rivers of ice flowing through the rainforests. Continue gliding through the sky, witnessing New Zealand's stunning Southern Alps, Mount Cook and Mount Tasman before experiencing a magical 10 minute snow landing (if the weather permits). There will be ample time to take photos and soak in this snowy paradise which is a largely inaccessible alpine region.
This flight is 35 minutes in duration. Please allow additional time for check in, transport to and from the heli-pad and loading.
* The snow landing is season and weather dependant.
* Comfort Seats (passengers 120KG and over when weighed at check-in will be required to purchase a Comfort Seat — these are half the RRP of your flight).
* Front Seat Request (Requests must be made 24hrs in advance & are only confirmed at check in)
Minimum of three and a maximum of six participants in the larger helicopter.
Please contact the provider if you have people wanting to watch the helicopter take off, this can often be arranged.
This is a weather dependent activity. In the event your flight is cancelled, you will be rescheduled.
Please bring a light jacket, sunglasses, camera and sturdy shoes you don't mind getting a bit wet if there is fresh snow.
This experience takes place in Franz Josef.
