This was one of the highlights of my trip! Dan is a great guy, relaxed, easy to talk to, knowledgeable, and a good driver - which is very important given the road you’re travelling on. The scenery is breathtaking and I came home with some stunning photographs.. my favourites being the ones Dan took of me. He knew all the best places to go and would stop whenever I wanted. I was also the only one on the tour so it was great having my own private tour guide. You can pay the same and end up in a full van. This was great value for money and I can’t recommend it highly enough! Do it!!
Our helicopter pilot made us feel very comfortable; he pointed out lots of landmarks, was very knowledgeable, and funny. The flight was smooth and absolutely beautiful. Being able to get out on top of the mountain was such a surreal experience, it was breathtaking. Everyone should experience NZ like this!
We had an excellent experience with pilot Kurt last month. Kurt was very knowledgeable of the area, pointing out landmarks and homes of significance. We couldn't do a Remarkables landing due to the weather so we landed on another mountain instead which was still perfect! Kurt took photos of us which was really appreciated. They provided a great shuttle experience which collected us from our hotel, taking us out to the Heliworks depot then dropped us back off in town afterwords. I would highly recommend the team at Heliworks. They made this whole experience incredible from booking to end. Thanks team!
I must have live a boring life as this is rated as the best experience in my life. However, one must understand that I have never been in a helicopter and on snow. It was a seamless experience from beginning to the end. The intern from Hamilton picked me up and we chatted quite a bit. He is a great young guy who also recommended places up in North Island. The check in people were great as well. The pilot was experienced and took us to a beautiful spot where we spent enough time to experience snow and the view and also recording them in videos and photos. I was grateful to be seated at the front and did not waste that with recording as many videos as I possibly can. Thumbs up to everyone at The Helicopter Line. Thank you for providing such a great service coupled by amazing experience.
Had a great flight up to the top of a mountain overlooking Skippers Canyon .Landed and took some great photos. What a blast 2 degrees .
Stoked about the experience. Never thought I could ever experience that but I did. Good value for money. The best 20 minutes i've ever had in Queenstown.
It was an awesome experience, stunning view. Highly recommended. Staff are nice.
Yep that's all I can say is AWESOME got some amazing photos, the staff are so great, my flight was rescheduled due to the worst rain ever, the staff booked me in for the next day & as I was coming from Wanaka I had to ring really early to see if the trip would be on & there was someone at the end of the phone which I was surprised about so a big plus for me. I would defiantly recommend these guys.
We has the most fantastic day imaginable. The staff at True South Flights were were friendly, efficient and thoughtful. Our pilot, Jason was very friendly, professional and provided added value with his insights and tips. The flight over the mountains allowed us to experience a side of the country that can't be seen otherwise,with scenery so breath takingly beautiful that the experience even feels a bit surreal. You will have to pinch yourself to be reminded that you aren't dreaming. I can whole heartedly recommend it without any reservation.
A wonderful ride up, a great view. Would have been nice to have a bigger walk at the top. But all good and well organised.
Stunning views from the top
The views are stunning, lovely staff, I had the chance to do a guided walk as well, would really recommend:)
We enjoyed our gondola experience very much. The views over the whole area are breathtaking. It was pretty chilly up there (January!) so don’t forget to take a jacket. The reason for 4 rather than 5 stars is that there was no disability parking available and a steep incline to walk up from the nearest car park, followed by stairs. This is something we suggested that needs to be taken into consideration. The pizza and chips afterwards were very nice.
Loved the trip - expensive of course but totally worth it for the time saved and the fantastic views from the plane!! The flight was even better than the cruise! The crew from True South Flights was really friendly and professional. Fully recommend!
Great place to go even though we went on a day when there was alot of low cloud the veiws were amazing and changing all the time, we really enjoyed the gondola
A great place with beautiful view.
We absolutely loved visiting Coronet peak. How gorgeous it is from the top. When you get to the top, there is a short 5min walk to the very top which is just absolutely stunning. After heading back down we ordered our pizzas. I swear the chicken grilled pizza and pepperoni were the best pizza's we've ever had. They also had a area next to the restaurant which allowed our kids to play and enjoy themselves. Loved it. Highly recommend. ?
Breathtaking views of the natural countryside.
Awesome ride up on the chairlift. Interesting walk to the peak. Views spectacular.
Fantastic experience. Awesome views. Definitely highly recommend
Mind blowing adventures. Keep shining bright, Coronet Peak Queenstown. The South Island New Zealand is a better place because of you. Thank you for that.
Amazing views and we had a great time. The gondola and the chair lifts are in great condition, the restaurant had yummy pizzas. The kids had an amazing time. We have been to both gondolas in queenstown, one in town and the coronet peak, we enjoyed this one more.
Loved our trip up the to the peak..very helpful staffing was my birthday that day and the team from the bottom to the top made us feel welcomed and special thanks team will be back in wintter
Fantastic ride on gondola and views from the top were out of this world. Signage for where to present your voucher on site could have been better. Otherwise highly recommend.
Loved it
Well worth a visit on a clear day, just awesome views in every direction, great facilities and good value.
Best mistake ever made.....thought was for other Gondola..lol.. views were to die for & could see Queenstown, Arrowtown & surrounding areas. Got deal with 2 Pizzas & again surprised. Staff super friendly, pizzas amazing & got 4 drinks on top. Perfect. Trip up Gondola incredible as could take the 4 person skiift chair up & Gondola down. So much fun. Then short 5 minute walk to Summit for more breath taking views. Totally recommend as was incredible family afternoon.
Just loved it. Loved the open lift to the top. The ridge line walk is stunning. .. views that take your breathe away .. so nice to see the ski field without snow. Such different terrains snowless 🤣
Enjoyed going up the mountain, views were incredible and staff were very friendly.
