A helicopter lands atop the snow and ice of Fox Glacier in Westland on the South Island of New Zealand to allow passengers on this tour to explore the ice fields, crevasses and ice falls. A 20 or 40 minute adventure are easy to book while in New Zealand, or a charter which can last considerably longer, with most of the tours touching down on Fox Glacier at around 7,000 feet.
Glacier Helicopter tours have been operating since 1970 and they have taken thousands of people to Fox Glacier to see the natural wonders of New Zealand. While in flight aboard this helicopter tour, one can enjoy the stunning scenery below where the glacier travels across the landscape for 13 kilometers.
