The GRAND TOUR including snow landing (allow 40 minutes)
The “grand-daddy” of all flights! Explore both glaciers as well as taking in Mount Cook and Mount Tasman. We top this off by landing you on the snow for photo opportunities. As a bonus, weather permitting we cross the main divide for you to view the Tasman Glacier. This will be your ultimate helicopter scenic flight excursion from Fox or Franz Josef on the West Coast of New Zealand's South Island. Be sure to have plenty of space on your camera memory card and bring your phone as well. You will be amazed by the stunning scenery topped off with the snow landing where you will have the chance to photograph the magnificent scenery.

Just must do this Heli Flight - you will not regret this experience of the best nature can serve up, awe- inspiring, fantastic customer and pilot [Jiorde] service. plenty of time to take alot of photos. If travelling through Franz Josef - STOP - and do a heli flight with HeliServices

This trip was a highlight of our holiday in NZ. From booking, to checking in, to the bus driver, amazing pilot and of course the flight……everything was perfect. We had fabulous weather and the landing on the glacier was so so perfect. I can’t recommend this trip enough.
