Pick up and drop off was arranged and free of charge, ground staff are friendly and helpful. Pilot Scotty was nice, excellent view and experience, our two mothers and 3 yr old son enjoyed it very much! Love the snow landing. Highly recommended.
Garreth as the Pilot and Bill as the co pilot did an absolutely amazing flight. Taking us to the tops of the Remarkables to see the billion $$$ views. Smooth and safe flight with lots of hours between the Pilot and co Pilot! The pleasant journey was worth every dollars we have spent! Off the plane and on the cruise was easy and Cruise was incredible to see all the beauty that Milford Sound had to offer. I wish they sell some Wine or beer at the Cruise ?. Back to plane after cruise and off we went! We started flying 12.10pm and were back in Queenstown by 4.15pm. The best 8-10 hrs that I have saved to explore more of Queenstown. Will recommend this for sure!
It was awesome. The views up there are mind blowing. Unforgettable experience.
Had never been in a helicopter before so didn’t know what to expect. I get motion sickness with flying and boats so I was really worried about that - but no issues at all with the helicopter ride. The views were spectacular with the snow, it really was breathtaking. It was also special being somewhere that would have been difficult to get to by foot!
The flight itself was cruisey and the pilot was very informative. He took the time to take photos of my partner and I as well as the other two girls who flew with us which was great! The snow landing was amazing, as were the beautiful views!
We had an amazing flight 20 mins views were amazing
Great experience and would definitely do it again. Friendly pilot and the weather was great (late October-little bit of snow)
We enjoyed ourselves on the cruise. Great views and this boat really takes you quite far. Yummy cheeses and tasty wine. Just the speakers were quite mumm, so we couldn't really hear anything from the captain commenting on the places around. Good times anyway!
Definitely worth trying, the view is breathtaking, staff is friendly, the pilot also gave my son a cap as gift, thanks.
We were picked up at our accommodation by Carl and taken to the base near the airport. We were given a safety briefing by our pilot who was also Carl, he strapped us in and we were away for an amazing flight over Queenstown. The flight was smooth, which is saying something as I hate flying. We were given a commentary of the area by the friendly and reassuring Carl, who landed us on a mountain with great views overlooking Queenstown, he told us where we could go and where not to go and even helped us take some great photos, he then loaded us on and took us back to base. I would recommended Heli Tours Queenstown to anyone. This is something you have to do whilst in Queenstown.
Clean and tidy boat, we received 1 free tea or coffee each and the captain gave a great commentary. Really enjoyed our trip and it was absolutely worth doing. We went in the morning and it was beautiful and clear, gorgeous views. Super cold outside on the viewing deck though so rug up!
Charlotte was our pilot. She was so friendly and professional. Our short flight up was well worth it. Views were stunning and we were lucky enough to have a friendly couple with us on our flight too. Highly recommended! It’s a must do.
Pilot was awesome
We were lucky, we had the perfect weather, went up to cecil peak hopped out had a play in the snow Well worth doing!!!!
Our first helicopter ride, it was such an experience. Will def do it again. Longer would be icing on the cake. Highly recommended.
AWESOME trip perfect weather and great interesting commentary along the way on points of interest and a bit of history.
Have experience a classic trip on the ship. One awesome thing is we can head into the engine room and saw them operate the ship to seal. Got to try once but once is enough. Besides, there is no discount in any website even here. It just a same price.
What a way to relax and enjoy the views. Sat inside then on way back outside up the front. 2 different experiences. Love the history of this old girl. A must when In Queenstown
Booked this for my best friend’s birthday. She was nervous to do this kind of activity but the crew were lovely and explained everything to us pre-flight. It was safe, fun and exhilarating! In the end, we felt like 10 minutes was not enough! I definitely would recommend this to everyone going to Queenstown. Bonus: when we did this, the rain has just stopped and there it was, a magnificent rainbow in front of us.
Stunning scenery and very relaxing.
We had a wonderful day on the electric bikes. We biked around the golf course and lake then biked to Arrowtown. They had to come change our batteries once but it was not a problem. It was so much fun to cruise up the hills with ease! They were very accommodating with us. We would recommend a fun day!
I was picked up from a a shop in town and taken to the drop off point after being showen where to drop the bike off once finished. At the drop off point I was given a map of the cycle paths a helmet and bike and then given a rundown of each path and how long it would possibly take to complete. Once given all relevant information I was able to head out and enjoy the ride.
Awsum experience. A++. Really loved it.
Love it :)
One of a kind experience!!! Fantastic way to see the Remarkables Mountain Range and Queenstown as a whole. Wayne was very informative and funny.
Great cruise amazing scenery, educational and fun. Captain was great - honesty box cafe kiwi as! Definitely recommend!
Really enjoyed the Million Dollar Lake cruise. Was a great way to see the sights of Lake Wakatipu, with funny & informative commentary from the skipper and also enjoy a refreshment while taking it all in.
Awesome !! Friendly professional staff and thank you to Korean girl for recording my video. ???
We've done jetboats, bungy jumps, luge rides, Steam Boat cruises and all the likes, but this was definitely the highlight of our trip. Nothing beats soakimg up this beautiful country whilst being inches above the crystal clear Wakatipu river. Such a beautiful way to explore!!
Great trip Very comfortable kayaks Helpful guides Highly recommended
Great way to start or finish a trip to Queenstown... or to chill out in between all the other activities available. Fun, informative, relaxing and you’ll get some of the best photos of your trip undoubtedly.
I loved my boat ride! The older man who took us was so friendly and did a lovely tour of the lake Wakatipu. A little cash bar with great prices and lovely wine! Thanks so much for the best experience! I will be back :)
Had a good time around lake with Million Dollar Cruise. Three hours trip, either on the deck or inside. Good views and guides. Worth of money. Recommend.
Most enjoyable trip
Knowledgeable and friendly Captain Wayne. He is a passionate about his business and wants to show us as much as possible. Gorgeous scenery and really enjoyable and exhilarating experience. Thanks.
Haved the amazing birthday day ever
We had a great time on the boat, they have a bar and snacks. The guide had lots of knowledge of the area, this would be great for new people to the area!
I will do this cruise again and bring family members from overseas. Wonderful fantastic cruise!
Was great scenery and had a great guide loved it
Lovely, relaxing. informative
This was my first time for cruising on Lake Wakatipu. It was awesome!! The weather was amazing and we could enjoy spectacular view of snow capped Remarkables! I highly recommend and would love to join again when my family come to Queenstown.
What a great way to see Queenstown from the water! Even before you board you are get to meet Keith the duck and friends. Great for the whole family. Captain Max even let me drive the boat. Enjoy the local history told by the Captain and take in the breathtaking views. Help yourself to something from the bar, kick back, relax and enjoy the trip. Great value for money and a must to do in Queenstown
