Naturally gifted with exceptional views of mountain ranges, bodies of water, and various natural formations, Tasman is best experienced up in the air – specifically on a scenic helicopter ride. Join this exciting air adventure that will take you to great heights! Enjoy flying up the Tasman Valley and over the blue glacier lake where you’ll see the Hochstetter Icefall, the Grand Plateau and Plateau Hut, and of course, the breathtaking Aoraki Mount Cook. After cruising past these snow-capped marvels, you’ll land on the upper snowfields of the Tasman Glacier and have the time to bask in its enchanting alpine environment before capping the day off. Your journey ends on a short flight to the Mount Cook Airport with your experienced pilot.
