5.00I’m a helicopter addict & this one was as good as they all are…fantastic. Wonderful views, great flight, (got to sit in front for half the journey). Probably wouldn’t do the landing again, better to spend all the time flying. Stunning countryside, great pilot, good commentary, loved it.
Amazing experience overlooking beautiful Queenstown

5.00My first time in a helicopter and it met all expectations. From the friendly pickup from our accommodation, to the quick and easy service, before heading for our flight. Exciting, safe and un-rushed.
Incredible!

5.00Amazing tour! Timely pick up, easy check in. The pilot was friendly, helpful and felt comfortable entrusting him as our pilot. The views were incredible. The stop on top of the mountain was unreal
A fantastic helicopter experience!
