5.00All I can say is wow!! If you do nothing else in New Zealand you have to do this. One of the most incredible experiences we have ever had. Matt was the best pilot - very informative and lots of fun and Tammy gave us the warmest of welcomes. The views were just outstanding and Matts commentary was great. It was most definitely the trip of a lifetime. Skip the Franz Josef trips and go for this one instead. AMAZING!!

5.00We spontaneously drove by and thought we would ask if there was another flight today. And actually there were still 2 places available. It was incredibly beautiful, a fantastic experience. It was very windy, so unfortunately we couldn't do a snow landing. But Matt, our fabulous pilot, flew to many places so that we could finally to a mountain landing. It was spectacular!
Stunning Helicopter ride

Unforgettable Experience with Precision Helicopter Hokitika NZ!

5.00Unforgettable Experience with Precision Helicopter Hokitika NZ! From start to finish, our experience with Precision Helicopter Tours NZ was absolutely outstanding. The team was professional, welcoming, and made us feel at ease right away. Safety was clearly a top priority, but they managed to keep everything relaxed and fun at the same time. The flight itself was nothing short of breathtaking. We soared over some of the most stunning landscapes West Coast New Zealand has to offer—think majestic mountains, the deep blue Hokitika River, and lush valleys straight out of a movie. Our pilot was incredibly knowledgeable and gave us fascinating commentary throughout the tour, pointing out hidden gems and local secrets you’d never get to see any other way. Every Request was taken care of, and the whole experience felt luxurious and deeply personal. Matt got us and personalised the whole experience. Whether you're a first-time flyer or a seasoned adventurer, this is hands-down one of the best ways to see the beauty of West Coast NZ.
