What This Page Covers

franzjosefhelihikes.com is an independent site, not a tour operator. When you click a link here and book a glacier trip, this site receives a commission from the booking platform. You pay the same either way. Booking direct with the operator, or through this site, makes no difference to the price on your receipt.

How A Booking Works

Nothing is booked or paid for on this site. Every purchase happens on the live booking page behind each link. Your payment, confirmation and receipt come from there, not from us.

Who Operates The Trips

We run no tours and are owned by no operator. Guided trips on Franz Josef Glacier are led by Franz Josef Glacier Guides, with flying by Inflite. Trips on Fox Glacier are run by Fox Glacier Guiding. Neither operator pays for placement here.

Prices And Details

The site lists 8 options: five heli hikes (the standard Franz Josef and Fox Glacier trips, an extended small-group hike, an ice climb and the Queenstown departure) plus three helicopter flights with snow landings. Prices are quoted per person in USD on the live listings, which may differ from the operators' direct NZD rates. The live booking page is the authority on price, cancellation terms, ages and weight limits.

The Basic Point

This site links to live tour listings, earns a commission on bookings made through those links, and never adds anything to what you pay.
