From Queenstown: Milford Sound & West Coast Beach Helicopter Tour

Cross the Southern Alps from Queenstown
to Milford Sound

With the hotel pickup option, travel by vehicle from your designated pickup location; with the self-drive option, head directly to the helicopter base in Frankton. After a full safety briefing from your qualified pilot, take off and enjoy spectacular views over the Southern Alps and Fiordland National Park. During the flight, your pilot highlights points of interest.

Land in Milford Sound and take a walk

Your first landing is in Milford Sound. Step out of the helicopter to walk around, admire the scenery, and take photos.

Follow the fiord and land on a Tasman Sea beach

Fly the entire 16 km of Milford Sound, New Zealand's most famous fiord, taking in sheer cliffs, cascading waterfalls, and towering mountains. Continue to the West Coast where New Zealand meets the Tasman Sea, and land on a remote beach to experience this untouched, rugged landscape up close.

Land on a glacier or alpine area and return to Queenstown

On the way back across the mountains to Queenstown, make a final landing on a glacier or in an alpine area. Enjoy the snowy mountain views before returning to the base.
