Your adventure begins at Mount Cook Airport, where you&#39;ll board a state-of-the-art helicopter for a spectacular flight over the Southern Alps. As you ascend, take in breathtaking views of Aoraki/Mount Cook, the highest mountain in New Zealand.

&nbsp;

Fly over the Tasman Glacier, the country&rsquo;s longest glacier, before heading towards the world-renowned Franz Josef and Fox Glaciers on the rugged West Coast. These moving rivers of ice are among New Zealand&rsquo;s most impressive natural wonders.

&nbsp;

The highlight of the tour is an alpine snow landing, where you&#39;ll step out onto a pristine snowfield high in the mountains. Feel the crisp alpine air, take incredible photos, and soak in the silence of the remote wilderness before boarding the helicopter for your return journey.
