Remarkables Mountain Range Helicopter Flight from Queenstown

Queenstown, New Zealand

The Remarkables Mountain Range dominates the eastern skyline of Queenstown. You will appreciate first hand how these peaks have earned their name when you land 1538 meters (5046 feet) above Queenstown, where you can stand in the snow during winter and admire the stunning views across Lake Wakatipu to the Southern Alps.

With its ability to hover, land and provide access to some of New Zealand's most remote areas, a helicopter is the ideal choice for sightseeing that will take you up close to towering peaks, crevasse filled glaciers and sparkling waterways. Learn about the stunning landscape as your professional pilot delivers an informative commentary en route.

Aircraft:
The fleet consists predominately of European AS355 Twin Engine Squirrels (seats 06 passengers plus pilot). They are ideal aircraft for scenic flights, with an open plan cabin making for excellent views for all passengers. The Helicopter Line has the highest levels of Civil Aviation Authority certification for scenic helicopter operations, this involves regular monitoring and audit of all aspects of the operations.

Wind and clouds made it look like we were not going to get our flight in. But the very helpful staff suggested we see if the weather improved - it did. The flight was awesome and the pilot was just great, taking photos etc. Pick up and return to our motel was also very appreciated. The best experience of our trip.

Mum & I thought it was one of the highlights of our trip. We had the best time and want to thank you for making it worthwhile. We couldn't believe our luck with the weather and getting an extended time up in the air. Thank you from the both of us.

This is one of the best places to ride in a helicopter; we had fantastic views of mountain ranges and Queenstown.
