10/10 -Wow! What an amazing trip. We were so lucky to have an amazing pilot. He kept the helicopter very steady the whole trip, (even though the wind was picking up). The views were incredible, even from the middle back seat. Sadly, (actually it worked out in our favour), it was too windy too land on the Tasman Glacier, so we ended up going all the way up and over the tops, finally landing on the Murchison Glacier. What an incredible experience this was! Unbelievable atmosphere! On the way back our wonderful pilot spotted a tahr and made sure we all saw it. Hugely professional company. Very safety conscious. Lovely people. Thoroughly recommend flying with this company. – May 2021
