Review for: The Grand Circle - Helicopter Flight

Due to weather changes, the noon and flight routes were changed that morning. You must be prepared for cancellations and changes to the itinerary at any time. Because the flight route was changed, it became 45 minutes, but you can apply for a refund of the difference.

Review for: The Grand Circle - Helicopter Flight

The Mount Cook helicopter tour offers a spectacular view and a thrilling experience. The magnificent view of the glaciers and mountains below is like another world. The snow landing allows you to experience the silence and grandeur of nature on a pure white snow field. Safety was also taken into consideration, so I was able to enjoy the tour with peace of mind. It was an unforgettable experience where I could fully enjoy the great outdoors of New Zealand.

Review for: The Grand Circle - Helicopter Flight

We were picked up from our hotel on time, but our flight was rescheduled because of bad weather so we had to return. The flight was mindblowing. Seeing the southern alps, the glaciers, and getting to spend time on the snow was a real treat. Make sure to pack sunglasses and sunscreen. Selfie stick not allowed on helicopter.

Review for: The Grand Circle - Helicopter Flight

Being able to see and set foot on the Mt. Cook glacier is an unforgettable thing... After all, in order to go up the glacier, we traveled from Fox to Queenstown and finally arrived at Mount Cook (we also fine-tuned the boarding time before flying to Mount Cook) ) But this flight experience is really worth it!
