What you can expect

Take to the skies for a look at the spectacular scenery of the mountain range that dominates the interior of New Zealand's South Island. Your flight gives you unobstructed views of the region's most incredible sights, from the slopes of Aoraki/Mount Cook to the spectacular Hochstetter Icefall.

After taking off from the heliport near Lake Pukaki, your helicopter flies past the rugged face of the Tasman Glacier to show you the rocky icefall of the Hochstetter Glacier. Get a look at the eastern face of Aoraki/Mt Cook and the upper Tasman Glacier before the helicopter takes you down for an alpine landing, giving you a chance to take in the fresh mountain air and take that photo of a lifetime.

Fly home through the heart of the Burnett Mountains as you marvel at the grandeur of the Mackenzie Basin, landing with countless incredible new memories to write home about.
