Now, you have the chance to experience this Historic and world-exclusive scenic flight, the Ultimate Alpine Combo, which allows you to fly in BOTH a Helicopter and a Ski Plane in one unforgettable product! You can't do anything like this anywhere else in the world.
Taking off, you will enjoy our country’s most incredible views as you soar your way up the Tasman Valley and over the breathtaking blue glacier lakes below. See the Hochstetter Icefall and the cloud-piercing Aoraki/Mt Cook before experiencing the highlight of your journey as you land on the upper snowfields of the Tasman Glacier. The aircraft will fully shut down on landing, allowing you to take in your surroundings, and giving you the perfect video and photo opportunity!
When you’re ready to depart, you’ll then switch aircraft for the ride back down the valley, using the Tasman Glacier as your runway below.
This once-in-a-lifetime, world-exclusive experience is not to be missed, so don’t settle for a standard scenic flight. Elevate your adventure with Mount Cook Ski Planes & Helicopters and create memories that will last a lifetime!

Superbe vue et vol
Vue et vol splendide par contre le début et la fin font vraiment parc animalier, les touristes passent à la chaîne sans considération le langage malpoli, une plus petite industrie serait mieux.

Expérience génial
Nous avons apprecie le service, malgre un changement de programme de derniere minute (le ski plane ne pouvant atterir sur la neige) nous avons quand même fais un tour dans l'avion et le sommet en hélicoptère

Downgrade trip, no refund
I got a phone call from a guy who said they can't do the 45-minute experience due to the weather, but they can do the 25-minute shorter helicopter version, and provide me with a refund. I agreed. I haven't received a refund to this day.
From 45 min Helicopter & Ski Plane Flight + Glacier Landing - Ultimate Alpine Combo - INFLITE Mount Cook
Kia ora, Thank you for your patience while we reviewed your booking (Ref: KZDV25X5381781). We’d like to clarify the situation regarding the downgraded flight and the refund discussed on the day. Your original booking was made at a discounted rate of $249.50 per person. The alternative flight offered due to weather conditions—the Tasman Taster helicopter experience—has a standard retail price of $379 per person. When the alternative 25 min experience was discussed, the intention was to refund the difference only if the amount paid exceeded the cost of the alternative flight. In this case, as the amount you paid ($249.50) was significantly less than the price of the Tasman Taster flight ($379), there was no price difference available to refund. We acknowledge that this was not clearly explained at the time, which understandably led to confusion, and we apologize for that lack of clarity. We hope this clears things up, and please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you’d like to discuss this further or if we can assist with a future booking. Kind regards, Mount Cook Ski Planes and Helicopters
