What you can expect

Experience the magic of Milford Sound from the skies with Heliworks Queenstown’s Milford Sound Explorer, a captivating 1.5-hour helicopter flight. This extended Milford Sound scenic flight includes spectacular views of some of New Zealand's most iconic landscapes, including the Earnslaw Burn, as featured in "The Hobbit" movie.

Your adventure begins in Queenstown, where you’ll lift off and glide over the waters of Lake Wakatipu, soaring past the Richardson Mountains en route to the awe-inspiring Milford Sound. As you approach Milford Sound by air, prepare to be amazed by the towering peaks and the dramatic scenery that unfolds beneath you.

The Milford Sound scenic flight includes not one, but two exclusive landings. One in a remote location in Fiordland National Park, and the other is the serene Earnslaw Burn, an exclusive landing site only allowed by Heliworks Queenstown. Here, you'll have the unique opportunity to step out, breathe in the fresh mountain air, and take awe-inspiring photos amidst the backdrop of the blue ice glacier and cascading waterfalls.

Book your seat with Heliworks and let us show you why the Milford Sound scenic flight, with its extraordinary views of Milford Sound and Earnslaw Burn, is a must-do for every visitor to New Zealand.
