Reviews
very good experience
The Flight was great! The captain brought us to have an ariel view of the splendid volanic natural scenic areas, walked up the Submit, and took great photos! Just one point is that the time at the top is too less. It's just less than 10mins while we could just took around 8 photos. We thought there should be 20 mins for free time in there. We hope the helicopter company could be more relax on the free time. Overall a great and lifetime experience.
Please! You must try this tour when visiting to New Zealand! The customer service is so friendly and kind. And our pilot is absolutely handsome, professional, friendly, patient.... ( and many more) My mother couldnt climb the stairs and need to sit down after walking for 10-15 minutes. He was so nice and took care of us during the whole tour.. He always made sure that we were fine as we sitting at the back of the flight. I WILL DEFINITELY come back and join this tour again! I SWEAR.
