Gift Voucher - Kaikōura Helicopters - Top n Tail - Whales & Mt Fyffe Alpine Landing

Give the gift of flight.

Approx. 60 minutes of marine and mountain magic

This unforgettable heli adventure combines two of Kaikōura’s most iconic highlights, its world-famous whales and its towering alpine landscapes. Every flight is unique, and you never know what you might see as you lift off and head out over the deep blue Kaikōura Canyon. From above, you’ll have the ultimate vantage point to spot Sperm Whales, Humpbacks, Orca, Blue Whales, Dolphins, and other incredible marine life as they surface, feed, and cruise the coastline.

After your time above the ocean, your journey turns inland, climbing into the dramatic Seaward Kaikōura Range for a spectacular alpine landing on Mt Fyffe. Step into crisp mountain air and take in sweeping panoramas — rugged peaks stretching west, the Kaikōura Peninsula to the east, and on a clear day, a glimpse of the North Island across the water. In winter, enjoy the magic of a snow landing.

On your return, fly around the face of Mt Fyffe as your pilot points out dramatic landslides, fault lines, and landscape changes carved by the powerful 2016 earthquake. Look for wild deer below before descending down the Hapuku River valley and back to our beachfront heli base.

A breathtaking blend of wildlife, wilderness, and elevated adventure — this is one of Kaikōura’s most popular heli tours for good reason.
