Ski & Snow in South Island

Experience an exhilarating Tasman Glacier heli-hike adventure. You'll soar over the Southern Alps and UNESCO-listed Aoraki/Mount Cook National Park, then land atop New Zealand's largest glacier for a 2-hour guided walk. Ice axe in hand, follow your guide over this frozen natural wonder to get up close to pinnacles, ice caves, crevasses and seracs. Choose from three departure times per day to suit your schedule. Snow gear and round-trip hotel transport are included.

Hit the slopes at Coronet Peak with private transfer in a vehicle for six, 11, or 22 passengers. The schedule is tailored to you, so you can ski and ride as long as you want, with options for large and small groups and departure times throughout the day. Simply meet a driver at your location in Queenstown, head to the snow with an experienced mountain guide behind the wheel, then return to town between two and 8 hours later.

Experience a Franz Josef Glacier heli-hike as you explore ice caves and other glacial terrain with a professional guide.  Then don provided boots, jacket and ice axe for a 2-hour guided hike past deep crevasses and towering ice-blue pinnacles before the return chopper ride down. Choose from seasonal departure times to suit your schedule.

Ensure a great day in the Remarkables Ski Field with this private transfer service from Queenstown. Travel in style with private transportation suited to your group's size, such as a 4-wheel drive Land Cruiser or larger vehicle. Assistance with equipment rental, timing, and activities is also available.

Take a 3-hour guided hike to the terminal face of Franz Josef Glacier, scrambling along an exclusive pathway over the riverbed of the mighty Waiho. During the interpretive valley walk to the glacier, your guide covers the geographical features of this magnificent alpine landscape. Upon reaching the viewpoint, you're treated to an up-close look at the advancing glacier. Numbers are limited to 13 people per group for a more personal experience.
