Incredible!
Out of this world experience - Mike the pilot was awesome and it was something you’ll never ever forget. And don’t get me started on the Camaro parked in the hangar. These guys are cool!

Awesome experience but the staff ....
We had an amazing helicopter flight — the experience was incredible and the views were unforgettable. We were especially excited and grateful that we were able to land at 6,000 meters. It was truly a highlight of our trip. The only downside was the attitude of one of the staff members (no names needed) (BRIE). Her behavior came across as unnecessarily rude, not just towards us but also towards an older couple who simply didn’t understand her instructions. It felt unprofessional and didn’t match the quality of the rest of the experience. Overall, the flight itself was fantastic, but the customer service from that particular staff member could definitely be improved. Would have been 5 stars without the rudnes of brie

不一样的冰川之行
服务公司服务非常到位，提前通知我们天气状况，确保我们能够顺利的成行。 冰川的景色非常美，直升机的状况也不错，飞行员非常有经验，让我们感到很安全。 一切都非常好，就是感觉游玩时间有点短。
