Why Choose an Afternoon Glacier Trip?
Afternoon departures are a fantastic option for visitors exploring the West Coast at a relaxed pace. Whether you are driving from Hokitika, Queenstown, or further afield, a post-midday departure allows you to enjoy a slower morning before heading out onto the ice.
Conditions on the glacier are often excellent in the afternoon, with changing light creating incredible photo opportunities across the ice formations, crevasses and seracs. Best of all, you get the same world-class experience, expert guiding and unforgettable scenery, now with 10% off.
The World Famous Glacier Heli Hike
The iconic Franz Josef Glacier Heli Hike is the ultimate way to experience this dynamic alpine environment. Your adventure begins with a scenic helicopter flight, lifting you high above the rainforest and landing deep within the glacier itself.
From there, your expert guide leads you through a constantly changing ice world of towering pinnacles, blue ice caves and dramatic crevasses. All specialist equipment is provided, making this experience accessible for adventurous first-timers and seasoned explorers alike.
With this limited time promotion, you can enjoy 10% off Heli Hike departures after 12 noon, making it even easier to tick this bucket-list experience off your list.
Glacier Encounter – An Easy Way Onto the Ice
If you are looking for a shorter, less physically demanding glacier experience, the Glacier Encounter is an excellent option. After a thrilling helicopter flight, you will land on the glacier and enjoy a guided walk across the ice, learning about the glacier’s formation, movement and unique features.
This experience is ideal for families, photographers, or those wanting to experience the glacier without extensive hiking. Afternoon Glacier Encounter trips departing after midday are also included in this 10% off promotion, offering outstanding value for a truly unique adventure.
