Heli Tours have had a bumper winter season with more visitors than ever before to the Queenstown area, taking advantage of their helicopter trips up onto the skifields and the glaciers, and of course to Milford Sound. However, summer is the time of the year when they really ‘gear up’ to cope with the influx of visitors to the region.

The friendly team at Heli Tours really look forward to the summer season when they have the privilege of showcasing some of the most beautiful scenery in the world, all within flying time of one of the most popular tourist locations in the world.

Specialising in helicopter flights around Queenstown, Milford Sound, Fiordland and Canterbury, Heli Tours provide fresh new experiences with a personal touch, showcasing the High Country environment of the South Island- alpine lakes, glaciers, untouched beaches and magnificent waterfalls. Heli Tours have extensive Combo package options or can tailor-make a bespoke tour specifically for their clients, combining scenic helicopter flights with iconic local activities such as heli–wine tours, Heli Tours provides a unique New Zealand experience.

The Heli Tours team recommend that people book in as early as possible so as not to be disappointed as their fabulous brand of eco-tourism is proving to be more popular every year. Heli Tours fly into (and out of!) Milford Sound, Mt Cook, and Queenstown itself is showcased, and they are fielding enquiries for their Glacier tours and their celebrated picnics.

As an approved business with the Department of Conservation Heli Tours have multiple permits that allow them to “park up” amongst these pristine environments for picnics with unparalleled views  where they show their clients the best that New Zealand has to offer. Further to this a contribution from all fares paid goes back to the Department so they can continue to support conservation. Heli Tours pilots have worked with DOC for over 10 years on projects in the High Country surrounding Queenstown and look forward to the future ahead working with the Department.

The team at Heli Tours are reporting that many of their guided activities are heavily booked already, including their fly fishing, hiking, guided farm tours, guided wine tours and luxury lodge transfers, so in order not to miss out, please go to http://www.helitours.co.nz  and make a booking today.
