Stunning! ✨

It's one of the basic things you have to do in Queenstown. I gave it as a birthday present to my sister and she loved it. I monitored the weather and the staff was very kind. I changed my time to make sure the trip, but I think it was the best thing. It was in the morning and my sister enjoyed it

Amazing

The flight took us further than we thought it would with some great information from the pilot along the way and plenty of time for pictures at the top. We didn't feel rushed even though it was only 30 minutes total. Snow landing at the end of October, with the most amazing view!
