Took the Grand Circle tour with them. Booked the night before on a whim, they called in the morning to confirm about 2 hrs before the tour. Multiple free pick up / drop off points across Queenstown, so you are pretty much covered even if you dont drive. Briefing and the tour was conducted professionally and they even take effort to swap the passengers around for the return journey so everyone gets a front seat or window seat at some point. There is a standard upselling of a totally optional printed photo at the end. Nothing wrong with that, but at 25NZD, its a bit steep. One more thing, booking direct with them seems the most expensive, there are travel agencies and other websites w referral codes that can get u 10 - 20 % off the list price.

Did the Grand Circle for my wife's special birthday. Fabulous experience. It was a perfect day which made the experience even better! Landed on a mountain ridge overlooking a lake, which was spectacular! Special thanks to our pilot Richard and our driver/host Damian. The memories linger much longer than the price paid. so do it!

My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed our flight. It was a glorious day, the landing was amazing and we had plenty of time for photos and playing in the snow. This flight was so memorable and one of the best experiences on our whole NZ trip. Very safety conscious and professional and picked up directly from hotel and took us back.

We were blessed with perfect weather on the day my friend and I did this helicopter flight. Was magical. The views were amazing and the landing and hanging out on the snow at the glacier was fantastic. Highly Highly recommend.
