What you can expect
A picture may be worth a thousand words, but nothing can fully capture the breathtaking beauty of this picnic helicopter experience. Soar above the stunning Mt Earnslaw Glacier on a scenic helicopter flight from Queenstown, landing at the Earnslaw Burn for a picnic surrounded by towering snow-capped peaks, sparkling waterfalls, and crisp alpine air. Whether visiting in winter, when the glacier is its most dramatic, or in summer, with waterfalls at their peak, this unforgettable excursion offers a magical setting for proposals, anniversaries, or simply a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Made famous by The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, this is a location you'll never forget.
