Due to bad weather, our flight was rescheduled twice and then moved to the next day. The staff at the office in Franz were really accommodating, I asked to get an earlier flight because I was leaving town. She put me on a 9:30 flying from Fox instead. The flight was amazing. A clear day and the most stunning scenery. A worthwhile experience that I would recommend to anyone.

The experience was great from the moment we arrived at the reception desk to the moment we left. The reception person was great in trying to give us an earlier flight. The person responsible for the briefing was friendly and great. And the pilot made the whole experience fun and interesting. We loved it and our 2 young kids loved it. The scenery is spectacular and helicopters are awesome of course.

What a fantastic experience!! Great views! Awesome flight! Landing on top of the mountain made the trip. Very good and chatty pilot - never felt so save, so high up in something so small!

This was an amazing experience and I would highly recommend it! We had perfect weather and the landing on the glacier was beyond expectations.
