Scenic flights in New Zealand

Fly over fiords and volcanic landscapes

In the deep south, fly over Fiordland, where steep cliffs, waterfalls and dark-blue fiords form a striking landscape. Around Queenstown, you’ll pass rugged peaks, glacier valleys and sparkling alpine lakes.

Further north, a flight over Tongariro National Park gives you a clear view of volcanic craters, lava flows and steam vents. Along the Coromandel Peninsula, you’ll see sweeping golden beaches and sheltered coves, while on the west coast — in Glacier Country — you can fly directly above glaciers that reach into the rainforest.

Whether you choose a helicopter, a small plane or a hot-air balloon, every region offers its own memorable view.
