Tekapo to Aoraki/Mount Cook Odyssey - 45 minutes

Your alpine adventure takes flight from Lake Tekapo, ascending above the iconic turquoise waters and golden tussocks of the Mackenzie Basin as your helicopter heads towards the majestic Southern Alps.

The rolling hills of high-country farms give way to a breathtaking panorama of glacier-fed lakes and beautiful valleys. Fly over the deep, glaciated valleys of Aoraki Mount Cook National Park, where New Zealand's tallest peak, Aoraki Mount Cook (meaning ‘The Cloud Piercer’ in Maori), reigns supreme over a vast landscape below.

Experience close-up views of the Tasman Glacier, New Zealand's longest - a dynamic, ancient river of blue ice, giant seracs, jagged crevasses, and the famed Hochstetter Icefall.

Finally, land amidst this alpine wonderland to admire the vistas, snap some photos, or simply stand in awe. An experience you won’t forget.
