Central Otago Scenic Flights

Creating lasting impressions and awe-inspiring experiences

A scenic helicopter flight - a Central Otago Must-Do Activity!

Whether you're staying in Cromwell, Alexandra, Queenstown, Wanaka or beyond, take to the sky and see the best of Central Otago from the vantage point from above - a scenic helicopter tour gives you a great appreciation for the new-age gold that vineyards and orchards provide the region, as well as hear stories of the days-gone-by gold rush of the 1860s and 70s.

Richard and Jolanda Foale own and run Heliview Flights, based at the Cromwell Racecourse Airfield, Cromwell. A beautiful 45 minute drive from Queenstown or Wanaka.

Cromwell is a great half or full day excursion during your Central Otago stay - see the Cromwell Basin from above, learn about the region's past and present during your personalised inflight commentary from Richard, and spot many great attractions from above. Then explore the surrounding area from the ground after your flight - vineyards, orchards, the Cromwell Heritage Precinct, the Big Fruit sculpture, Bannockburn, Lowburn, a round of golf at the local award-winning Links golf course, take a stroll along Lake Dunstan or relax with a cup of coffee at one of the many great cafes.

Cromwell Basin Flight with Alpine Landing

This 45 minute trip encompasses Central Otago's breathtakingly different and vast undulating landscapes, rugged snow-capped rocky mountains, clear blue rivers and lakes, deep gorges and tussock-clad hills.

The Cromwell Basin Flight offers a glimpse into the area’s rich goldmining history, both present day and days gone by, and showcases the basin’s award-winning vineyards and orchards. Enjoy a complimentary refreshment at the alpine landing site whilst you take in the remoteness and grandeur of the open space - hot chocolates in winter or a locally made Benjer fruit juice in summer.
