β β β β β I'm not questioning his flying ability but quite frankly the pilot/manager (J.S) would be one of the most arrogant and obnoxious people I have dealt with. I have flown with a number of operators around Southland & Westland and have had no problems or found no issues with any of them. I think the only reason J.S stays in business is because he has the monopoly of Milford and surrounds. His rudeness, arrogance and dodgy pricing is unsurpassed. Also lack of honesty and integrity in placement of hunting parties is an issue as well as dumping hunting parties in places that have just been poisoned without informing them.
I have flown with this character a couple of times and wouldn't do it if there was an alternative.

β β β β β Absolutely amazing!
While working in New Zealand on a short-term work visa (I'm Canadian), I was able to take a road-trip around the South Island. We took a cruise into Milford Sound, then decided to take a helicopter tour. Phenomenal scenery, and an incredible experience!
We landed at the top of Sutherland Falls, got out, took pictures etc. You definitely want to be sober while at the top of this incredibly high waterfall!
Then we flew off around a few peaks and landed on one of the nearby glaciers to get out and take some more photos. This, alone, would have made the flight worth every penny!
After taking off once more, one of us spotted some of the wild chamois that live in the Southern Alps. We were able to get quite close due to the skill of our pilot. The pilot did say that he usually flies a little more sedately for tourists, but, hey, what are you going to do when egged on by a bunch of young guys :)
I would recommend this helicopter tour to anyone who has the chance!

β β β β β Have used Jeff and his team extensively for my tour groups and have been on flights with them myself. Always found him to be flexible, transparent and amenable toward clients. The flights are literally breathtaking and never fail to impress. Highly recommended! As I tell folks - you remember what you did, not what you spent.

β β β β β There is room for 5 passengers on every ride. The individual that sits next to the pilot is going to have an amazing experience. The two individuals with window seats in the back row will have great views. The two individuals in the middle seats in the back row can see essentially nothing. If you are going to have one of these seats, I recommend sitting next to someone who is very comfortable with you leaning into your lap to see out the window.
Perhaps if a very short person were in one of the middle-back seats, they could see some of the ground through the front window. Consider making an agreement with other riders prior to take off to switch seats for the second part of the flight when it takes off from the mountain.
All of my pictures from inside the helicopter are of the backs of peopleβs heads and the instrument panel. Everyone on the helicopter paid the same $750 to ride.
We were fortunate and only had to wait about 30 minutes. Two of the people on our flight were part of a larger group that took off hours prior. Be prepared for a very long wait.

β β β β β We had a great experience, the weather was perfect. The only draw back was that we showed up randomly and thought it would be easy to book a flight. We got lucky as we showed up hrs earlier to make sure we got a flight. Recommend looking into it early, Milford sound is nothing more than a ferry terminal and a small cafe. So don't make the same mistake we did thinking it was a small village. But what an amazing experience. And I hope I remember his name right... Sam was a great pilot.
