Take your Queenstown adventure to new heights with an unforgettable journey to Aoraki Mt Cook and the spectacular Tasman Glacier. This incredible experience combines a return scenic flight with an immersive boat tour, delivering one of the most rewarding ways to discover New Zealand’s longest glacier. From soaring mountain vistas to floating alongside ancient ice formations, every moment is designed to inspire. You'll fly above the dramatic Southern Alps, taking in sweeping views of Lake Wanaka, Lake Hawea and the vibrant blue waters of Lake Pukaki. As Mount Cook National Park unfolds beneath you, the majestic summit of Aoraki Mt Cook comes into view. Meaning “cloud piercer” in Māori, this iconic 3,724-metre peak dominates the landscape and offers a truly unforgettable perspective from the air.

After landing at Mt Cook Airport, continue your journey with a one-hour cruise across the Tasman Glacier lake. Glide past towering icebergs, impressive ice walls and the glacier’s dramatic terminal face while surrounded by the rugged beauty of Mount Cook National Park. It’s a rare and captivating experience, perfectly paired with your return scenic flight to Queenstown.
