Indagare Tours: Heli-Adventures

Fiordland National Park

Helicopters are an enormous part of New Zealand culture. From their introduction in the 1960’s to aid in deer hunting, to their more practical use as means of transport throughout the island country’s vast, undeveloped natural landscape, helicopter excursions provide a wow-factor to any New Zealand itinerary.

One of the most memorable ways to explore Queenstown, with its dramatic mountain peaks, alpine lakes and natural fiords (as well as the awe-inspiring territories of the 1.2 million-hectare Fiordland National Park), is to embark on an adventure by helicopter. With an experienced pilot-guide, discover untouched terrain in some of the most remote locations on the South Island. Fly fish in a back stream, hike atop a mountain peak, hunt in unspoiled forests, picnic on an isolated beach, swim in a high-altitude alpine lake, spear for crayfish off the coast… and do it all knowing that there is no other person within miles of you. Or, simply watch as your expert guide commandeers for you while you sip Champagne and take in one of New Zealand profound, breathtaking settings. Contact Indagare’s Bookings Team to plan a tailor-made helicopter adventure.
