5.00Incredible flight with Glacier Southern Lakes Helicopters. The team was professional and welcoming. The flight went by very quickly, but it was a great (and affordable) way to see Queenstown and the lake from a new vantage! Only 5-6 people per helicopter so it was an intimate experience. Pro tip: make sure you check weather and book on days that look clearest :)

5.00What a wonderful first ever helicopter flight with Glacier Southern Lakes Helicopters - the Queenstown Remarkables flight was outstanding. The booking process was seamless and the staff superb, thoughtful and friendly with keeping in touch and confirmation. The helicopter was like new, and the pilot who had over 30 years of flying experience, was very calming, and very accommodating. It was a sensational experience and would recommend them - brilliant!
Just do it!
