This scenic helicopter flight will take you on a journey deep into the Fiordland wilderness, soaring high over the main divide with its ever-changing scenery of beech forest and bright blue alpine lakes. Real and remote, you’ll love this little-seen part of South-West New Zealand.
Discover the real Fiordland and get a taste of some of the most remote landscapes the South Island of New Zealand has to offer with this scenic helicopter flight. Departing from the Te Anau lakefront, this unique helicopter experience allows you to glimpse the hidden wonders of Fiordland and a taste of the ‘real’ remote mountains. Crossing over the Main Divide with its ever-changing scenery of beech forest, mountain slopes, alpine lakes, waterfalls, hanging valleys and snow-clad mountain tops, you will be amazed by this vast and magical area of Southern New Zealand, perhaps most noticeably when you make a high alpine landing on Mt Kidd, a remote picturesque area complete with an inky blue lake. From here, you will be able to soak up the epic views over Fiordland’s landscapes, a scene you’ll want to revisit time and time again, so make sure your phone or camera is charged!

That’s 10% of the Australian population! When we started ‘doing’ experiences in 2001, Facebook didn’t exist; the iPod had just been invented; John Howard was Prime Minister; and Destiny's Child were popular (yikes!). We’ve been at this business of experiences for quite a while, so put your trust in us to show you a good time.
