Steve_T, Sep 2024

The flight was incredible with William our pilot giving great commentary of the landscape. Flying over and beside those peaks and glaciers was very special. Our 4 hours on the ground at Mt Cook was great for the Hooker Valley Trek to Mt Cook. Stunning views. A great day and memorable experience

The views from the plane...

Anne_T, Mar 2023

The views from the plane were stunning and Jim was an excellent guide. Also enjoyed hiking the Hooker Valley.

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Hi Anne, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. Nothing makes us happier than flying passengers over the stunning places New Zealand has to offer. We are so pleased you had a great time and we will pass on your compliments to Jim. Thanks from the Glenorchy Air Team

最高！

MICHIKO_K, May 2024

一生の思い出に残る素晴らしいツアーでした。空からの景色は絶景としか言いようがなく、写真で見ていた以上でした。フッカーバレーのハイキングも飽きることなく楽しめました。ハーミテージホテルで軽食を取りもう一か所の短いハイキングも楽しめました。英語が苦手なのでためらいましたが、とても親切に対応して頂けました。もっとマウントクックについて勉強して行けばより楽しめると思います。日本の方にも是非参加してほしいツアーです。また一緒に参加されていたご夫妻もとても素敵な方で人に恵まれたと感謝しています。本当に最高でした。ありがとうございました。
