Oh what a great experience, 2 snow landings was just a fantastic way to start a day. Only improvement would be having a hot coffee up the glacier with the pilot 👨✈️

Fantastisk helikoptertur sammen med min sønn. Vi fløy rundt og fikk se MT Cook opp i skyene. Magiske omgivelser med veldig profesjonelt selskap.
