Great fun and fantastic view and access to the top of Franz Josef glacier. - Celebrating 40 years, to the exact day in 1985, of my first of many flights as a pilot of Gazelle helicopter [grandfather of this range of single engine helicopters]. Quite a significant day to get back in a helicopter once again in my retirement from a full and rewarding career with helicopters! What great fun with super views of Franz Josef glacier and straight to the top in a comfortable safe and quiet helicopter. Single Squirrel was roomy and easy to access. Ground crew safety brief was too quietly spoken for an older audience but control around the helicopter was well managed. Good communication and commentary by Simon our pilot and all flying manoeuvres done IAW the manual. Landing spot on the flat ice was unique and walk about away from rotors running aircraft was a strange experience but accepted as a normal procedure in NZ. Had a informative chat about the aircraft with Simon and had lots of photos taken. Just a quick up and down 7,000 ft but to that’s the versatility of helicopters

Very professional.Excellent communications.Excellent health and safety. - This was my 3rd trip (over many years). I've always found them to be very professional. Communications are excellent. Health and safety was spot on. I felt 100% safe.

A must do activity - highly recommend! - Was amazing! A must do experience. Save your money and spend up on this activity. Was the absolute highlight of our South Island summer road trip. Staff were fantastic. Issac looked after all the safety issues and transport to the helicopter area. Clark was our pilot and very informative and flew us over and alongside Fox Glacier and pointed out so many interesting things along the way. The snow landing was fantastic and I enjoyed watching our family having a snow fight in the middle of summer.

Worth it! - One of the highlights of our trip. So good. We were booked for a 4pm lift off for 1 glacier(Franz), but the weather had packed up by then. The company rescheduled us for next day morning. Luckily the weather was clear and view was spectacular.

Once in a lifetime experience - Amazing! Must do highlight of our trip. No better way to see the glaciers and experience Fox and Franz Joseph. Poppy our pilot was phenomenal. In addition to being a great pilot she provided an overview of the valley and changes to the glaciers over time.

Incredible - Amaxing unforgettable experience. Staff were all lovely and we were lucky to go up on a clear sunny afternoon. Pilot was great. We weren't sure about spending so much on something that lasted 20 minutes but it was incredible and most memorable part of our month long trip around South island. Now you can only get to within 2km of glacier on the ground, a flight is a must.

Amazing experience! - We had an amazing experience with the Helicopter Line and particularly Vicky (the manager), Amy (the loader), Kate (in the office) and Dion our amazing pilot. The staff were amazing to deal with and the pilot was very knowledgeable. We would highly recommend doing this as the views were stunning, the experience was once-in-a-lifetime and we will remember this for a long time! Thank you!

AMAZING! - Our flight and experience with staff was nothing short of amazing! The views were out of this world & our pilot Chris was so informative and friendly. Big thanks also to Nat who took us to the heli and was just so welcoming while ensuring we were all safe. Put this on your bucket list because I couldn’t recommend more!

Worth it! - We chose the fox Glacier 20 min flight. Book this for your first day of visiting as there is a chance the flight could be cancelled due to weather and safety (which is fare enough). We were able to reschedule to the following day and it was so worth it! We got lucky with the weather! Staff are very friendly and helpful! We had Liam and Belinda checking us in they are so friendly and efficient! Ben the pilot was fantastic, during the trip he explained a little about the history of the glacier, he took pics for us and even told a joke or 2! At first I did not want to spend that amount of money on a 20 minute flight however I am so glad my partner encouraged us to do it as it was such an amazing experience. We felt 100% safe with these guys and all we had to worry about was enjoying the scenery! Thanks again guys!! We will be back!!

Didn't get to go - The tour was cancelled due to weather however I am still waiting for a refund a week later. Viator has not gotten back to me at all, disappointed with the service!
