Highlights

  • Enjoy an exhilarating 35-minute scenic helicopter experience!
  • Soak up stunning alpine scenic views in the Queenstown region
  • Fly above Skippers Canyon and the Queenstown Basin
  • Top off the experience with a helicopter snow landing

Prepare for the trip of a lifetime as you lift off by helicopter for a breathtaking alpine landing! Take in the incredible scenery of the Queenstown Basin, flying over Lake Wakatipu, rugged mountain ranges (including Coronet Peak), and historic Skippers Canyon. You'll touch down in a remote alpine spot for stunning photographs amongst the tussock-covered wilderness

The scenic flight is both exhilarating and awe-inspiring, offering outstanding opportunities for photography. The flight path may vary depending on the weather'. We don't want to 'guarantee' snow when this product is also offered in the summer where snow is a little difficult to find.

Courtesy transfers from local Queenstown accommodation are available.

The best of the best!

This was a fabulous and inforgettabke day! Our Pilot was Mike, he landed us beautifully on the snow where cloud closed in startlingly fast! So we had to go, but to make up for it, he landed us a second time on Cecil Peak. This was absolutely wonderful and unexpected! The views amazing! The Pilot kind polite and very professional, we felt safe in every way. The ground staff young ladies were also excellent, professional and friendly. All in all I give this the highest rating possible. Ni faults here! Thanks guys!

Must do AMAZING experience!

This was such an amazing experience! If you could only get to do one helicopter ride in your lifetime, Queenstown is definitely the best place to do it! The scenery is stunning, and all of the staff at Glacier Southern Lakes Helicopters were extremely friendly and knowledgeable, especially our pilot Stu! :)

Breathtaking Views & the Best Flight Ever!

We did the apline scenic flight.This was one of the best highlights of our trip to Queenstown. Our intial booking got cancelled due to weather, however the team were very professional & kind in accomodating us the next day. Andy, our pilot was awesome and very informative. To our advantage our flight was slightly longer to be able to get us a snow landing :). Scenery was absolutely stunning and spectacular - took so many clicks! Glacier Southern Lakes Helicopters are the best in business if you are thinking of doing a flight- highly recommend. Thank you to Andy and the rest of the team for helping us create some memorable memories :).
