My partner and I booked a flight with heliview for our Queenstown holiday over the long weekend.
We had a booking for the morning flight but Jolander messssged us the day before our flight asking if we would like to take the afternoon flight as fog was heavy that day and would probably be the same the next day.
We happily changed out plans and man was it wort it!! The view over Cromwell is spectacular! The commentary as we flew over the river and mountains was informative and interesting.
Best part was landing up on the snow! We were given yummy hot chocolates to warm up, and spent a good 15-20mins mucking around in the snow, climbing the rocks and getting some fantastic photographs.
Overall it was a great experience and we would highly recommend.

We had a wonderful trip up to the Pisa Range, where we landed, had a hot chocolate and played in the snow. Our pilot was really informative, and we got to see parts of the area we had never seen before. Was a great thing to do with a toddler too. We highly recommend Heliview Cromwell, Richard and Yolanda were great the whole time. The area is so beautiful, and seeing it from above allows you to take it all in. Landing right up high in deep snow was absolutely amazing. If you want to ride in a helicopter, definitely consider the Heliview Cromwell flight with alpine landing.

Richard and Yolanda were phenomenal. They have a great thing going for them. The flight was great and the stop over on top of a snow covered hill for hot chocolate was perfect. Thanks guys for an unforgettable experience.

It's our first flight in a helicopter. Love it!! The views are just breathtaking. Jolanda is super nice and very helpful.

If you are taking the flights in winter season, better bring your own rain/snow boots so that it's easier to walk around on the snow mountain top:)

Dear linwrofl

Thank you for your wonderful feedback.

It's great to hear you enjoyed your Cromwell Basin Flight with Alpine Landing.

After a fresh dump of snow there is a lot of powder to sink into, for sure. That's what makes it so much fun to go for an alpine landing in winter :).

We hope we will see you again some day. Thanks again for your kind words & feedback.

Kind regards
