About us
Blow-your-socks-off, unique experiences you won’t get anywhere else - that’s why Glacier Country Scenic Flights exist.
We’re a locally owned family business. Kevin and Heather are the real deal. We have run Glacier Country Scenic Flights for over 30 years and our son, an avid hunter, is one of our key pilots. Our Daughter Vanessa takes care of digital marketing and sales.
You’ll find us at the most beautiful heli-pad on the West Coast (you’ll want to bring a picnic and a bottle of bubbles and linger after your flight), beside the glittering turquoise Whataroa River. We can’t wait to show you around.
We have created the most varied and beautiful scenic flight paths, backed by our deep knowledge and experience, to delight people like you. Seeing the wide smiles when our guests touch down is the best reward.
The pilots really look after people too. They share commentary, keep guests safe and chat with them.
Whether you’re interested in a snow-landing on a remote glacier, breathtaking landscapes or easy access remote West Coast hunting and kayaking, we have you covered.
Call anytime to have an actual person help you to create an epic adventure.
