Your Milford Sound helicopter flight provides access to some of New Zealand’s most secluded natural wonders. An expert pilot takes you sightseeing into the heart of the UNESCO-listed Fiordland with unrivaled aerial views of the lush rainforest, bush-lined valleys and crevasse-filled glaciers between Queenstown and Milford Sound.

When it’s time again for take-off, marvel at up-close views of the famous fiord’s towering peaks and sparkling waterways. Then fly over the crevasse-filled Tukuko Glacier, landing here or in Otago's Glacier Basin, before your return flight to Queenstown where you’re transferred to your hotel.

I’ve always loved helicopters so this was a fantastic experience! The views from up top were great and the landings in Milford Sound were stunning. Pete was a fantastic pilot as well and has great knowledge of the area. Definitely an experience well worth the money.

My wife and I thought the flight was brilliant and would love to do it again. It made a super holiday even better! The only negative was the uncertainty of the flight due to lack of numbers. The flight time was changed three times and only confirmed about an hour beforehand.

J'avais réservé ce vol en janvier pour le mois d'août, donc j'avais un léger doute ! J'ai appelé la veille pour confirmer et le jour J on est venu nous chercher à l'hôtel, on nous a conduit à l'hélicoptère et on a décollé quelques minutes plus tard pour la plus merveilleuse des excursions, 1h30 de paysages merveilleux jusqu'au Milford Sound, un endroit paradisiaque. Au retour notre pilote a cherché un endroit sécurisé pour se poser sur la neige à haute altitude et nous nous sommes amusés pendant quelques minutes dans la neige avant de redécoller pour rentrer. Trop génial, ma fille de 11 ans a adoré!!!
