    Kia ora, Thank you for your review. We are pleased you had the chance to experience Aoraki / Mount Cook by air. We're honoured to have been the highlight of your trip. Ngā mihi nui, Glacier Helicopters

    Exhilarating experience with delightful crew!

    The team was delightful. We love Jes' vibe and sense of humor ... Her driving in the other hand... 🤣 JK. Our pilot, Mike was an amazing a fun pilot, once we got him talking. The views were breathtaking and the time on the ice cap was epic, especially since one of our co-passengers was from AUS and had never seen snow! We had a brief snowball fight with him, made snow angels and built the world's smallest snow man. It was great!

    Kia ora, Thank you for your kind words. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed time with Jes, Mike, and the team, and that your time on the snow was so memorable. Ngā mihi nui, Glacier Helicopters
