Request your preferred departure time in advance, then make your way to the helicopter base — along the main street of the Fox Glacier township — to begin your tour.
Take a seat in your helicopter and, with the blades whirring overhead, soar high over the glacial icefalls and crevasses of Mt. Cook — widely considered the most impressive of all New Zealand’s peaks.
Gaze out over the landscape below and marvel at panoramic views stretching all the way from the coast to the Southern Alps. Along the way, fly over Fox Glacier, Franz Josef Glacier, and Mt. Cook.
Then, land on the snow on the top of Mt. Cook and touch down for a moment on New Zealand’s highest peak. Hop out to capture the scenery on camera, then return to base in the Fox Glacier township to bring your tour to an end.
