5.00The team was delightful. We love Jes' vibe and sense of humor ... Her driving in the other hand... 🤣 JK. Our pilot, Mike was an amazing a fun pilot, once we got him talking. The views were breathtaking and the time on the ice cap was epic, especially since one of our co-passengers was from AUS and had never seen snow! We had a brief snowball fight with him, made snow angels and built the world's smallest snow man. It was great!
Incredible views and experience along with great staff and a skilled pilot

5.00The experience was incredible! The views were absolutely spectacular and where we stopped and got out on the opposite alps had a great view of Mt Cook. The staff were very friendly and polite and the pilot/guide was very skilled and shared a lot of interesting information about the area and key landmarks. Definitely recommend!
