We signed up and paid for the twin Glacier trip from Fox Glacier to bith Fix and Franz Joseph Glacier. After several delays we went to Fox Glacier which was beautiful! However the pilot s seemed pushed to get more people to the top and did not take us over to Franz Joseph Glacier claiming there was too much wind. There was no wind however.

A well organised helicopter trip to view 2 glaciers and land on one. And it was a flexible package too, as our previously arranged trip was cancelled due to bad weather.
