Reviews: Queenstown scenic round-trip flight + Milford Sound / Piopiotahi cruise - time-saving and effortless
Guest User2025-10-07
It took four adjustments before we finally got on the flight and saw the fjord, but it was totally worth it! The owner was incredibly dedicated, answering every question and patiently explaining things. He even proactively helped with potential itineraries and helped secure a seat.
Furthermore, the weather check and departure times for my final itinerary were at 1:00 AM China time. I had planned to call and confirm them myself, but the owner was so persistent that he helped confirm them. I was so touched! I highly recommend this place! It was a great choice!★

Reviews: Queenstown Southern Alps Glacier Helicopter Tour - Classic 50min Route
Guest User2025-10-17
Luckily, Queenstown was blessed with a rare sunny day (starting tomorrow, it'll rain for at least ten days straight), so at 11 PM last night, we suddenly decided to scrap our original plans for the Fiordland Islands and start booking helicopter tickets to the snowy mountains. Fortunately, we found a super reliable agent, and after much trouble, we finally secured a spot on this morning's newly added helicopter flight. However, this morning, as we arrived at the agreed pick-up point and waited for the minibus to pick us up, we received a call saying the flight had been canceled due to insufficient passengers. Fortunately, after negotiating with the airline, the flight was rescheduled for this afternoon. I spent the entire morning and afternoon feeling anxious. The itinerary wasn't officially confirmed until an hour before departure, and the agent was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process, helping to communicate with the airline. Finally, we were lucky enough to board the last helicopter of the day—all that perseverance and patience paid off!
