Experience the true untouched beauty and awe inspiring scenery of New Zealand's South Island with an exciting scenic helicopter flight and snow landing on the majestic Fox and Franz Josef Glaciers.

Fox and Franz Josef Heliservices are based in both Fox and Franz Josef. Our modern fleet of turbine helicopters can whisk you away for a magical alpine experience encompassing these two world famous glaciers. Sweep over the lush sub-tropical forests of the Westland National Park as we climb to 6000' before landing on the snow. Mountain enthusiasts will also enjoy our scenic flights incorporating Mount Cook and Mount Tasman.

We are proud to be the only 100% locally owned and operated helicopter company licensed to land at all designated landing sites within the Westland National Park.
