This flight gives you the opportunity to discover the scenic wonders of both the Fox and Franz Josef Glacier's. With departures available from Franz Josef or Fox (separate schedules), you will be amazed by the wonderful blue ice of these two beauties as you soar across the snow covered pinnacles onto the snowfields of the Fox or Franz Josef glacier.

this was our 3rd attempt at a heli ride in NZ and finally we made it! Loved our flight and pilot! Our stop on the glacier was magical! This place wasn’t quite as organized as the last that told us what the show time was and what you could and couldn’t take in the flight but everyone was nice and the day was fantastic!

The experience itself was lovely. However, 4 of us, all good-sized adults, were crammed in the backseat of the chopper making for an uncomfortable ride.

Fantastic experience. Mountainous and incredibly beautiful with quick landing on the Fox glacier and then we were really lucky with the weather. Great recommendation from us.
