Would take this cruise again! - What a great day! The boat itself was very clean, comfortable, and had plenty of viewing areas. The crew was friendly and professional. The cafe offerings were good and reasonably priced. We also saw seals and penguins during our excursion! I highly recommend this trip!

What a fantastic adventure! - This was a truly great flight. We'd booked a flight from Mt Cook airport to view the local peaks, the Tasman glacier, and the Franz Josef and Fox glaciers. However the weather on the west of the Alps was not playing ball, so the flight was changed to one viewing the peaks and landing on the Tasman glacier. We flew out in a chopper, and back in the ski plane. The whole process was managed on the ground by a very friendly and efficient team, and the flight to the glacier was superb. We spent 15 minutes there engulfed in the beautiful views, taking pictures and then boarded the ski plane for the trip back. Another superb flight. I loved the downhill take-off from the glacier! My wife and I had every confidence in the pilots, who both gave us a good amount of information without overwhelming us. Go do this!

An experience of a life time - This was the e highlight of our week long visit to New Zealand! Weather unpredictability means it is a hit or miss with this activity. We were lucky to find a booking the night before our visit to Mt Cook and in fact it turned out to be a beautiful sunny morning. We enjoyed the 45 min tour. The ski plane to go up to Tasman glacier was a thrilling experience and the helicopter on the way down passes within a few hundred feet of Mt Cook. Between the two, coming down in the helicopter was the more enjoyable experience because it is easier to get a view. But the total experience is well worth the money. Very well run and efficient operations and we felt safe. Morris and Mark were our pilots and both were fantastic. Landing on the Tasman pass and spending 15 minutes on the glacier was truly memorable. A must do activity.

impressed - My family was very impressed, but the wait was a bit long and the people who came later got on first, so it took me 5 hours.

BAD service! Be prepared to sit separately - This review is for Mount cook ski planes and helicopters by Infinite. It seems I am unable to send a review of them. This clearly shows their lack of service to block me? My family of 4 booked the 45min flight yesterday with our hotel for 430pm flight today. We were told to be picked up at 345pm at hotel lobby. We arrived early and was picked up punctually. Everything went downhill thereafter. We arrived at Mount cook airport and was told my the staff we would be split by 3+1 on another flight. This was not told to us beforehand. The staff blamed us for being the last to arrive but we were picked by the staff at the time stated by them. When we explained this was our first flight together as a family, they insisted that we will be spilt only on the flight but at the glaciers we will be together. I wonder who takes a flight separately when paid for together. So staff decided to ask another family if they will be willing to be spilt. I don’t blame another family for their unwillingness given that as a family, everyone will love to fly together. The fact that they nonchalantly blamed us for being last to arrive, and then said they “understand “ but the situation made it just too bad for us? If we were told beforehand, we would not book
