Description
A classic, scenic helicopter tour of the Aoraki Mt Cook National Park.
Experience the splendour of this alpine environment from the sky in our state of the art helicopters. Soaring high above the Tasman Terminal Lake, you’ll be captivated with the snow capped mountains stretching in every direction.
The highlight of this tour is the ability of our pilots to land their helicopters safely in the snow on top of New Zealand’s largest glacier, the Tasman Glacier. It’s at this point you will truly experience the wild nature of this unforgiving location. Enjoy the time to capture Aoraki Mt Cook up close while your guide delivers an informative and interesting commentary.
Reboarding your helicopter, sit back and relax while the pilot continues to reveal the gorgeous scenery beneath you as you return via the Hochstetter Icefall.
You will be memorised throughout the entire flight.
