Absolutely amazing experience. Every part of this trip was a smooth and easy process. Communication before hand was excellent, booking was easy and the trip itself sensational. Friendly people and a yummm got chocolate in the snow with beautiful views. Thank you so much for making our honeymoon that much greater ❤️

Dear Angela and Blayne
Thank you very much for flying with us during your recent honeymoon getaway. It was a pleasure to showcase the Cromwell Basin to you from above and land you in the snow for a hot chocolate at 5500 feet.
We hope to welcome you on board again sometime - maybe for a wine tasting at altitude option? ;)
Warm regards,

Heliview is run by husband-and-wife duo out of Cromwell. It's a great way to spend some time in the afternoon and see the views from a different perspective. We saw more of the vineyards on the way up to the mountain, then followed a different path following the river on the way back. If you're apprehensive about riding a helicopter (it was my husband's first time), don't be. The pilot (Richard) is very professional and you will feel safe. The helicopter was unique compared to others I've ridden on in that it doesn't have a tail rotor.
Just be wary of scheduling things immediately after as the schedule is more of an approximation than an actual time table.
Didn't detract from the experience though.

We had a wonderful afternoon Mt Biking with great views and understanding the local area of Cromwell and it's history. Our group contained different levels of Mt biking experience but Jolanda was a great guide and coach for everyone. I would highly recommend if you are in this area to get in touch with these guys, they offer great flexibility with their tours and are lovely locals!

Thank you so much for spending a lovely Sunday afternoon with us biking in the hills above Cromwell. It was a pleasure meeting you both and telling you a little about the history and beauty of our region with you.
Enjoy the rest of your holiday in Central Otago and we hope to welcome you again some time 😄.

Dear Simon
Thank you very much for flying with us for your wedding proposal surprise to Laura! And yay for the weather on the day and being able to tie in a flight over Wanaka and a private alpine landing at Lake McKay to pop the question.
Again, all the very best from us for your future together <3.

As a special birthday treat, my partner and I booked the Sightseeing tour with alpine landing, and we couldn't have been happier with our experience. Richard was the perfect pilot, providing informative and intersting commentary during the flight, and we felt like we were in experienced, capable hands. The alpine landing location was stunning! We loved having time to explore the basin from above! The photos that Richard took were extra special.
Thank you for such a wonderful day out!
