Discover Four Majestic Glaciers in One Grand Flight

Take off for a 60-minute helicopter adventure over the heart of Glacier Country, soaring above the Franz Josef, Fox, Tasman, and Shackleton Glaciers. While traversing this rugged landscape, you’ll catch dramatic glimpses of Aoraki/Mt Cook and Mt Tasman, set against the Southern Alps’ ice-clad contours. Your pilot will guide you through cinematic scenery, including the Ice Lake and filming sites from The Lord of the Rings, enhancing the journey with rich commentary.

This tour includes two unforgettable snow landings, allowing you to step onto pristine alpine ice for unique photo opportunities and quiet reflection among the peaks. With every minute spent above glaciers, valleys, and craggy summit lines, the wonders of New Zealand’s high country unfold beneath you—making this a true bucket-list experience.
