Wanaka Helicopters

We took the 3.5 hours helicopter flight from Wanaka to Milford Sound. It really was a once in a lifetime experience and absolutely worth every dollar spent. The staff at the office advised us well about the best time to travel and was always helpful. Our Pilot brought us very professional through the mountains and explained the scenery very detailed and in a sympathetic manner. Thanks for the whole team for the great time

I booked a proposal package with Wanaka Helicopters and cannot recommend their service highly enough. Having been initially booked on a 12.30pm flight for two in an R-44, bad weather meant it was put back to 3pm but conditions improved significantly and after regular updates via email and phone, we were moved forward again to 1pm. I was passing off our flight as a birthday present and staff went along with the cover story perfectly, wishing my partner a happy birthday when we arrived. Nicky from the front of house team was a big help in my advance planning while pilot Dean gave us a flight to remember and took several excellent photos of us on top of Coromandel Peak which we'll treasure forever. He struck the right balance between keeping us safe, staying on top of our timings and also allowing us space to enjoy our special moment together with the right degree of privacy. Thank you so much to Wanaka Helicopters, you ensured everything went as smoothly as possible and it was worth every last dollar!

(Translated by Google) A little too quiet a trip. Safety is a nice thing, but the flight Was deadly slow to boring and we didn't get very far, despite the time we had booked. Furthermore, the trip was a training trip for a young pilot, which might explain the speed of the trip. We were three paying customers who were placed on the 2nd row of seats. View and photo opportunities could be better. (Original) En lidt for stille tur. Sikkerhed er en fin ting, men flyveturen Var drbende langsom til kedelig og vi kom ikke ret langt omkring, trods den time vi havde booket. Desuden var turen trningstur for en ung pilot, hvilket mske forklarer turens hastighed. Vi var tre betalende kunder, som blev placeret p 2. sderkke. Udsyn og fotomuligheder kunne vre bedre.
