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.

Fantastic experience

We have always wanted to go in a helicopter over Queenstown and when we did it was a fantastic experience! It's well worth doing the views we're amazing and the pilot was very knowledgeable.
