★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We have done the Whale watching by boat but nothing compares to seeing them from the air.
We had the most amazing flight. On take off we saw Dolphins in the waves.
The trip we took was the Top n Tail. This trip takes you to the top of My Fyffe and the out to see the Whales including views of Kaikoura.
When you land on top of Mt Fyffe you get a view out over Kaikoura and from here you can see the North Island & Banks Peninsula when the weathers good.
If you do this flight I recommend you book early in the morning before the wind picks up. This makes for a more comfortable flight.
On the way down we saw deer running around the hills. Before flying over the township and South Bay out to find the whales.
The first Whale we saw was a Sperm Whale and we could see it really clearly followed by another. Then we saw Three Baleen Whales followed by two large Sharks then another Two Baleen Whales. We had just enough time to see two more Baleen Whales before departing.
That was Nine Whales in all.
On the way back we flew over the Kaikoura heads then around the North side past the North Pier spotting schools of fish before landing.
The pilot was very informative and helpful throughout the flight.
This trip was an amazing experience and I fully recommend it.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We had an awesome trip, sadly no whales, but more than made up for it on flight, from airport, to Goose bay then Nth to mountains, Quake Lake, landing on top of mountain, thanks for film crew from What Now, filming for Sunday show, then onto Clarence River, Thanks to Pete our pilot, for his knowledge of the ares. Would definitely do it again. Many thanks for experience, Paul & Denise Jory Christchurch

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We were a party of 3 hunters that got dropped into a spot in the back of kaikoura recommended by Aaron the pilot. Single handedly the best chopper company I have flown with for a hunting trip, NZ wide. Aaron ran us through all his recommendations giving us a smorgasbord of options to hunt before we flew, we chose our spot, the flight experience was second to none and the knowledge and details known of the area helped us on a successful trip. Will use these guys again 120%.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The people here are really friendly and professional, and our pilot for the 50-minute Coastal Whale Watch helicopter flight was just terrific. The Raven II chopper is also a good model for this kind of flight. We managed to see one Sperm Whale and a pod of Dusky Dolphins and got some great views of the Kaikoura Peninsula as well as the nearby coastline and the rebuilt coastal road. All wonderful stuff.
The hilltop landing was a little underwhelming; I suspect because we had recently done landings on the Tasman Glacier and the mountain tops of Fiordland. So, unless you've never done a hilltop helicopter landing before you may want to opt for the 40-minute Extended Whale Watch flight instead which covers the same ground but without a landing.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Brilliant experience, very professional service and great customer service. Aaron, the pilot, was very helpful and conscientious, but the best part was his knowledge and skill level in difficult windy conditions, he put my mind at ease with his calm approach. It was comfortably the best helicopter service I have had. I recommend Kaikoura Helicopters to anyone and everyone for all services in the region.
