Landing on a Glacier is Amazing - Wow, an awesome experience to be on a glacier. Majestic and beautiful sights in every direction. I had flown with this company before and yesterday was another awesome trip. Very organized from booking thru prep before the trip, they walk you down to the convenient landing pad and then a great flight. 5 stars for sure. A highlight of my experience in New Zealand.

Best experience in live! - We had amazing experience with Glacier Helicopters! Firstly in the Fox Glacier office Bel explained us everything about the flights really properly and answered all our questions clearly. We’ve got an attractive discount as well. We’ve chosen Mt. Cook + Fox Glacier option. On the previous day we climbed Mt. Fox, where we had wonderful view for Glacier and Mt. Cook; we’ve worried a little bit, that views from the helicopter could be quite similar. We were totally wrong!!! We flew really high, pilot Clark showed and explained us about the peaks, glaciers, huts, vallyes arround. The flight was smooth and save – Clark is real professionalist. The weather was wonderful, during glacier-landing we were totally alone and the total flight time was longer than expected. It was the best experience in our life, worth every money. Team of Glacier Helicopters – thank you for such amazing adventure!!!

Exciting trip spoiled - We were confirmed to go 24 hours prior to the tour 45 minutes before we arrived they called and said we were now unconfirmed due to another passenger moving to another flight we had already been driving for 2.5 hours with a early morning departure. Very unprofessional and very unreasonable service and not willing to take any concern of what we were put out because of the late notice. We also were charged once we were confirmed and now will have to wait for a refund which is another annoying situation we have been put in. A very poor way to run a business.
