Once in a lifetime

What a wonderful experience. My friend had never flown in a helicopter. She felt so safe at all times. From the minute we booked there was clear helpful communication to the professional pick up. The flight was smooth, a beautiful sunny day with interesting commentary. Landing on the Remarkable's to enjoy a toast, a once in a lifetime experience. Wonderful staff in all areas of the experience including a local pilot.

First helicopter flight

My family and I loved the experience on our first flight on a helicopter. The staff was friendly and the pilot made conversation and pointed out different areas. The helicopter was new and clean. Overall highly recommend the activity for anyone in queenstown.

Maybe Not.

Scenery was beautiful. Expected more time in air then on range to take photos. Commentry from pilot explaining land marks or history of area would make the flight a better experiemce.

Hi Tui, Thank you very much for your review. We are so sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy your flight with us back in July. It is very uncommon to receive this sort of feedback from customers. Landings are a huge hit as it allows customers to enjoy the fresh air, snow and capture once in a life time moments! We will pass on the feedback about more flying time. Thank you again for your review. Kind regards, Tegan
