Absolutely stunning

A fantastic and spectacular experience run by a very friendly and professional operator. Words, nor even photos can't describe the beauty and grandeur of the sights that you see on this flight. There is a great variety of scenery (mountains, glaciers, fjords, ocean, rivers and lakes etc) and the duration of the trip (90 mins) is perfect. Every seat is a window seat and makes for many great photos

Awesome!

Flight was amazing! Incredible views and very knowledgeable commentary throughout the flight. We had perfect weather so could even see Mt Cook in the distance. Highly recommend.

Such a stunning experience!

Such an amazing experience! First it was too cloudy in Milford Sound but luckily it cleared up so that we were able to fly there. Jake was a great pilot and flew us safely to Milford and back. He also informed us about all the mountains and rivers we were seeing from above and was there for some jokes and laughs. Can definitely recommend it, the view is stunning!
