The view were amazing! But as a photographer, it’s such a pity that I didn’t get some proper photos from this flight. From the beginning I’ve been keep asking about if I can sit on the left of the back seat because these is a big window and it’s good for photos. We were the first two passengers checked in to this flight, so I think we do have an opportunity to choose the seat first. But the pilot said we are going to pick up the other two passengers from other places. So I have to seat on the right back seat. She told me that I can change the seat after we picked up the other passengers, but actually didn’t. After the landing on tarawera, I said again that I want to sit on the left back seat, but pilot said no again because they are going to drop those passengers to somewhere outside this trip, so they have to sit on the left backside for a easy drop off. And after that, finally I got my back left seat from the drop off to the base with no view of mt Tarawera! Taking photo of mt tarawera is reason why I take this flight, but I didn’t get what I expected. So the conclusion of this is if you want to see the beautiful view of tarawera go for this flight. If you want to take good pictures maybe find some other ways.

We did the Tarawera Falls Volcanic Heli Hike which involved a landing at the top Mount Tarawera then being dropped off below for a ~6 mile hike to Tarawera Falls and being picked up by boat for our return. This was a great adventure. A perfect blend of heli tour and hiking. Our pilot was fantastic — she gave us a great ride and view of the volcanos, and answered all our questions about the area. Our hike to the falls was a highlight of our trip. We did not see a soul on the trail and spent half our time jumping in the crystal clear pools along the river. If you plan on going all the way to the falls, prepare to hustle; it takes a bit of time to go there and back before the boat comes!
