    Fantastic experience flying over the glacier. Unfortunately we didn’t get to touch down on thr glacier due to conditions but that did not diminish the experience.

    Very professional & well organised , checking in at their main office was easy . Modern & comfortable helicopter , Mike the pilot, gave an interesting commentary on the glaciers & the surrounding area . The snow landing was exciting as there was another chopper already there .
    We were very lucky with the weather as it was near perfect .
    Awesome flight 👌

    This trip was actually so wonderful, we did the 20 min flight first and then we paid to do the 40min flight an hour later as well. Absolutely amazing and beautiful. The reception staff were so polite and friendly and our pilot for ours flights (Paul) is so professional, so good with local knowledge. He also made the trip by being so much fun to be around and we had so many laughs. He even participated in a snowball fight. Thankyou for such great memories, we will be back again.

    This was an incredible experience and our guide (Connor) had lots of great information about the glacier but made the trip fun! Would 100% recommend to anyone travelling the South Island - one not to miss!

    Excellent flight around the mountains and glaciers, would highly recommend. The pilot did a great job of pointing all the natural points of interest. A bucket list item.

    Very well organised from start to finish. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Our pilot Jay was very professional but also very helpful and knowledgeable. We got great pictures of the snow landscape and had a great time.

    I did two tours with Petra; one to Fox and the other to Franz Joseph. She was a great guide - very knowledgeable, helpful and an overall fun person to have as a tour guide. Strongly recommend.

    We experienced a 40-minute flight over Fox Glacier, Franz Josef, and Mount Cook, including a glacier landing. Michael, our pilot, was very professional, courteous and provided excellent commentary. All staff members were friendly and helpful. The views were spectacular and the experience was highly memorable. We certainly recommend Mountain Helicopters if you are visiting Fox Glacier.

    The people who own and run the business are absolutely wonderful. So happy to give you ask the information you need and just have a chat. We dropped in and asked about a flight and were able to get one within thirty minutes. Due to weather conditions, no payment until confirmation that flight could go ahead. The pilot was great and gave commentary throughout. Amazing views over the whole place including glacier, Mt Cook and Mt Tasman. Highly recommend them to everyone.

    I had an absolutely amazing time on this tour. Greg, our tour guide, went above and beyond to make sure everyone was happy and got to see and experience everything they wanted. He also was very knowledgeable and entertaining. The scenery was breathtaking and there were plenty of stops and photo opportunities along the way. I highly recommend this tour!
