The staff were great at accommodating a solo traveller with others and Chris the pilot was fab at taking photos for us. Views and feeling of being on a glacier are incredible and definitely worth it
Not bad

We were driving from Te Anau to Milford specially to fly on top of the Glazer. Because of the weather, we couldn’t land on the Glazier, but I expected to get some kind of compensation, which I didn’t. That was quite disappointing.
Unforgettable
