One heli day in Wanaka, one at Mt Cook and one at the Arrowsmiths, one in Queenstown plus a backcountry day outside of Treble Cone. Who’s in?
Some weeks just spell epic and we think this 7 day heli tour of New Zealand may be one of them. If you like the smell of chopper fuel in the morning, your group snow safaris to be small and intimate with like minded people and a guide to sort out all elements of your holiday along the way then check out Haka Tours 7 Day Ultimate Heli Tour.
Your expert tour guide who knows New Zealand as well as Peter Jackson and skis or rides like a fusion of Jossi Wells and Janina Kuzma will hold your hand as little or as much as you desire while you hit up some of the best skiing terrain the land of the long white cloud has on offer.
The heli will take you and 7 of your new best friends (bring your own or come alone, the tour group maxes out at 8) from Christchurch to a day of leg warm ups at Mount Hutt (heli upgrade at Mt Hutt optional) before hitting the mighty Arrowsmiths by helicopter.
Just when you think it can’t get any better you’ll head to the Mt Cook region, commonly known as Aoraki. Here you’ll hit the skies again for some of the highest mountain peaks in the country.
By now you’ll be begging for more and Wanaka will deliver with another day of heli skiing plus a backcountry skiing and boarding day at Treble Cone.
When you hit Queenstown you can choose to upgrade to yet another day hitting fresh virgin powder from a helicopter or treat your thighs to a down day.
Everything is covered, all you have to do is show up. Your transport, mountain and heli transfers are included, 3 days of heli skiing and a backcountry guided day at Treble Cone plus a day at Mt Hutt is included, 6 nights of 3 + star accommodation in a private ensuite room, 6 cooked breakfasts and lunches on all heli days.
