Scenic flights and helicopter deals in New Zealand
New Zealand is known for its incredible scenery, and how better to see it than from a bird’s eye view?
But first, you’ll have a few decisions to make…
Choose from the scenic North Island beaches or the mountains, glaciers and rivers of the South Island.
And then decide if you’ll board a helicopter or a fixed-wing plane. In some parts of the country, you’ll even have the choice of a float plane or ski plane.
Or, if you’d prefer, opt for a glacier heli hike or skydive.
Whatever you decide, you’ll be in safe hands with your experienced pilot.
For many, a scenic flight in New Zealand is a real bucket list experience – and we can’t help but agree!
