Experience an extraordinary adventure in Aoraki Mount Cook by flying in both a skiplane and a helicopter on the same day. This unique journey combines the excitement of two aircraft types with stunning alpine scenery and a glacier snow landing. From the moment you take off, you will be treated to spectacular views of the Southern Alps, including the striking blue waters of the Tasman Glacier lake. Fly over the Hochstetter Icefall and witness the cloud-piercing peak of Aoraki Mount Cook as you approach the upper snowfields of the Tasman Glacier. Once landed, take time to explore and appreciate this pristine alpine environment, capturing photographs and enjoying the sense of being surrounded by snow and ice year-round.
After experiencing the glacier landing, you will swap aircraft and continue your scenic flight back to Mount Cook Airport, enjoying new perspectives and breathtaking vistas along the way. During the journey, you will also see Tasman Terminal Lake, Grand Plateau, Plateau Hut, and the full length of the Tasman Glacier. The combination of skiplane and helicopter flights allows for a unique and immersive experience that highlights the dramatic landscapes of the Southern Alps. Perfect for adventure seekers and nature lovers alike, this tour provides a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience the beauty and grandeur of New Zealands alpine wilderness from multiple aerial perspectives.
