What you can expect

Lose yourself in a blanket of snow on a 45 minute Alpine Snow Landing helicopter tour with Over The Top in Queenstown. Experience the thrill of a 15 minute helicopter ride above Queenstown’s alpine scenery before landing on top of a mountain covered in beautiful white snow. Over The Top offers a unique Queenstown helicopter experience where your pilot turns off the engine to allow you to experience complete silence as you stand on top of the world.

Your Southern Alps adventure begins at the Over The Top departure lounge in Queenstown Airport, where you can meet your pilot and step onboard a luxury custom black helicopter. Take in mesmerising views on an exhilarating helicopter flight over Queenstown’s alpine scenery.

Touch down on the snow on a remote mountain top of your Over The Top pilot’s choice, and marvel at the sheer beauty of Queenstown’s untouched mountains. There is plenty of time to have a snowball fight, make snow angels and take unbelievable pictures in this winter wonderland. Discover the true meaning of the sound of silence when your Over The Top pilot turns off the engine and it’s just you surrounded by pristine snow.

Once you have made as many snowmen as possible and taken some incredible pictures, it’s time to find your seat on the Over The Top helicopter and make your way back to Queenstown airport. The Alpine Snow Landing with Over The Top is a fantastic experience combining an exhilarating helicopter flight with unbeatable views of the most remote scenery surrounding Queenstown.

Over The Top Helicopters Over The Top is unique in Queenstown for providing a choice of helicopters to suit your private charter group. Choose between the Airbus Squirrel or EC130 Eurocopter helicopter, all in Over The Top's custom black.

The Airbus Squirrel One of the most popular helicopters worldwide, the AS350 Airbus Squirrel comfortably seats 6 passengers with room for two up front and a four person bench behind. This helicopter is widely chosen for cinema and television filming or missions, as well as being an exceptional choice for aerial photography.

EC130 Eurocopter If you are looking for comfort, unrivalled visibility and a quiet engine, the EC130 Eurocopter combines all three. With huge windows for panoramic viewing, the Eurocopter is a favourite for sightseeing and VIP transfers.
