Exclusive Volcano Landing: Mt Tarawera Helicopter Adventure

What a fantastic trip, absolutely loved it. Spectacular scenery and a great knowledgeable pilot. Would recommend for anyone to do this.

We did the Tarawera Falls Volcanic Heli Hike which involved a landing at the top Mount Tarawera then being dropped off below for a ~6 mile hike to Tarawera Falls and being picked up by boat for our return. This was a great adventure. A perfect blend of heli tour and hiking. Our pilot was fantastic — she gave us a great ride and view of the volcanos, and answered all our questions about the area. Our hike to the falls was a highlight of our trip. We did not see a soul on the trail and spent half our time jumping in the crystal clear pools along the river. If you plan on going all the way to the falls, prepare to hustle; it takes a bit of time to go there and back before the boat comes!

This awesome helicopter tour will leave an unforgettable memory. The pilot was patient and interacted with us all. He did not hurry us and we had amazing views. I would go again!!!!!

Great view, nice and experienced pilot, stunning sceneries. You started right from helicopter pad on the lake, then fast, but confident launch. Big windows and enough time for photos

What a wonderful experience we had! One of the best tours ever! The flight, the views, the landing were incredible!

The pilot was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the trip very enjoyable. He took photos of us at the top and told us all about the volcanic activity and landmarks in the area. The views were breathtaking. We had an amazing time. This was definitely a highlight of our trip.

Great trip on a wonderful sunny morning. Experienced pilot with interesting information about the mountain and the area. We had a lot of fun.

The whole tour was amazing from start to finish, landing on the volcano and seeing it up close was the highlight! Commentary was fun and informative, would thoroughly recommend!

Beautiful trip to a spectacular place. Views for miles in every direction. Our guide was fun and knowledgeable. Highly recommend!

It’s hard to describe just how incredible of a trip this was. We had perfect weather with views for miles. Our pilot was class. He gave us jaw dropping views and a memorable take off from the volcano itself. If you’re on the fence about this one, just go. You can thank me later.
