Fox Glacier Guiding Heli /Hike Tour

Trip Stop: 
Narrative: 

Our tour started with a short helicopter ride through a valley to the foot of 13-km long Fox Glacier. Along the way, we passed lovely Victoria Falls, which is the melt river from the hidden Victoria Glacier. After landing, we gathered as a group on a set of benches where we were given our crampons and instructions as to how to put them on and how to best walk with them. Once all 4 helicopters had arrived and everyone had their crampons on, we split into two groups, each of which had our own guide. We then spent 3 hours on the glacier exploring some spectacular, brilliantly blue ice caves, arches, and tunnels. We were then picked up by our helicopters and brought back down through the valley to Fox Glacier Guiding
