  I did the 2.5hour Milford Extended Helicopter Tour and it was nothing short of extraordinary! From lift-off, the views were surreal, glaciers, waterfalls, and untouched alpine peaks that felt almost otherworldly. Landing on a remote glacier and later on the Milford Sound shoreline made the whole experience feel truly once-in-a-lifetime. The pilot was excellent, professional, knowledgeable, and made us feel safe while also pointing out hidden gems along the way. It’s hard to put into words how breathtaking it all was, easily the highlight of my trip and something I’ll never forget. Highly recommend it, would not think twice about it, and cannot wait to come back for some more. Thanks again!

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

• Amazing but a few minor things need to be fixed

  We did the extended Milford Extended tour and it was amazing. The pilot (Tim) was amazing and knowledgeable. The scenery of course was to die for. But I can only give 4 stars for 2 reasons; 1 - They were running behind time and we departed about 20 minutes late. And while we made all the designated stops we were given the hurry along continually when we were on the ground and we got back almost exactly 2 hours after we left for an advertised 2.5 hour tour. Cutting our trip short by 20-25 minutes got them back on time at our 'expense'. 2 - We were a family of 4 and paid for a private tour so even though we were paying thousands of dollars for the flight they still charged us $2 for a bottle of water at the base. Seriously. You'd think they'd comp us the water?!

  Incredible experience! Once in a lifetime stuff. Welcome was warm, ran to time and our pilot Jeremy was excellent. We got incredible views, time to enjoy all three landings and the ride was surprisingly smooth. Would recommend to anyone considering it.

  The scenery from the sky is amazing with stunning views that you just don't get on the ground. Our pilot, Luke, provided interesting information about the areas we visited. The trip was memorable and thrilling! I highly recommend Glacier Southern Lakes Helicopters for a "Ride of a Lifetime!"

  This activity was the highlight of our trip. My husband struggled with anxiety at the beginning of the trip, and the pilot was amazing at easing his nerves and talking to him, and helping him feel more comfortable. By the end of our excursion, my husband was completely at ease and enjoyed it, and is still talking about it. You see the most beautiful parts of the area in a way that you never would from land and it is truly breathtaking

  One of the most memorable experiences of my life. The views were just breathtaking, our pilot was awesome and very knowledgeable and the whole Glacier team was first class. We did the extended tour of Milford Sound and definitely recommend. We'll be back. Thank you so much!

  This was easily the best mountain and snow helicopter flight I’ve been on. The day was incredible with alpine landings and a landing also in Milford Sound. The Pilot Cody was an incredible host and real asset to your business. Smooth flight and wonderful scenery. I would recommend this flight to everyone.

• Fabulous experience!

  A fabulous experience! Fly up and over the mountains, close and personal, then land gently in the snow for a photo opportunity not to be missed. See this magnificent country from above and enjoy travelling to places difficult to reach. The sky was moody, but the video and photos were worth it. Felt safe in the professional hands of our pilot, Cody, who looked after us so well. A brilliant trip.

  This was worth the price and time. One of my favorite excursions I’ve ever done on any trip. The staff leading up to my trip were amazing and communicated great. Day of, for my first helicopter ride- the pilot was professional and gave amazing detail on all the places we flew over and added to the excitement of the day. Three landings: Milford Sound, Glacier and a remote beach along with flying over Milford will be moments I will recall for the rest of my life. Book with these wonderful people, you won’t regret it! Till next time! Thank you!
