Cheers guys thanks for taking the time to write a review. It was our pleasure to show you are amazing back yard. catch you next time. stay safe GCH team
This was really an amazing experience, the whole deal, the flight, the view, the snow landing. We have been lucky to have had some incredible nature experiences all over the world and this was up there with the best of them. The reception team and our pilot Gus were relaxed and friendly, but thoroughly professional. Only warning is to do this at the end of your holiday otherwise everything else you do after may seem a bit average!
Thanks for taking the time to write a review it is a real big boost to the whole team to hear how happy everyones experience was. We have had such a great time flying all our guest in our amazing back yard with this amazing weather. Stay safe and catch you next time
