Flight Overview
Fiordland is an area of spectacular beauty. Native forests, glacial hewn valleys, towering mountains and majestic and primeval scenery have afforded this area world heritage status. Ancient animals and plants of Gondwana still exist here.
Over The Top are delighted to be able to take guests to explore this inaccessible area. As with all Over The Top experiences our trips are leisurely – your time is our time.
Lift off from the Over The Top departure lounge at 0900 (or at a time to suit) for a spectacular and exclusive helicopter flight over alps and glacial lakes before descending into Milford Sound, the first of fourteen fiords / or into the heart of Fiordland, Dusky Sound in the south west corner of the south island of New Zealand. Acclaimed World Heritage Status for its extreme beauty, rear birds and geological feature.
Wind your way up or down the remote and rugged coastline of the Tasman Sea depending on what fiord you have chosen, discover the Fiords and beaches accessible only by helicopter. Touch down and put your feet in the sand and feel the power of the thunderous ocean waves stretching ceaselessly beyond you before entering Doubtful Sound, the sound of silence being about 50 kilometres from the nearest inhabited place, with great wildlife this truly is a fiord worth visiting.
Over The Top offer a unique opportunity to explore remote areas normally inaccessible. This relaxed and interpretive expedition distils the essence of New Zealand’s most dramatic scenery.
Lunch at your leisure as you find the perfect setting for your picnic of the finest regional foods.
