What you can expect
Departing from the Over The Top hangar at Queenstown airport, this breathtaking helicopter flight will take you up in the beautiful skies of Queenstown. Over The Top takes you on a journey where you will travel up to either the Remarkables mountain range or Cecil peak, along the way your friendly and knowledgable pilot will talk about the history and the landmarks in the area. Your pilot will then land the helicopter and shut it down on top of the mountain, which then you are able to get out of the helicopter and get the most serene experience, take in the awe inspiring vistas in front of you and breathe in the fresh crisp alpine air.
This experience includes all you could want! Ultimate photography spots; from one mile high, looking over mountain view, Lake Wakatipu and the Wakatipu basin. Your expert pilot will be able to give you a fascinating insight into the route with all the most interesting points of commentary.

Excellent flight. Great company from the start. Victoria was very polite and Steve the pilot was very knowledgeable about the surrounding area and the helicopter was shut down after landing on the mountain so you could take in the serenity of the view. Highly recommend this trip
