Skiing the Tasman Glacier is one of those things that sounds extravagant right up until you're actually doing it. You fly in by ski plane or helicopter, you're deposited into an alpine landscape most people never get close to, and then you ski two runs through ice that's been building up for centuries. Reviews consistently land at a 10, and the few that don't are still calling it a highlight of their whole NZ trip.

The cost comes up a lot in reviews, but so does the line "the cost becomes a non-issue." That's worth noting. It's not a cheap day out, so the 10% off with promo code RANKERS is genuinely useful here, not just a token saving. Worth factoring in when you're weighing it up.

One thing that stands out across multiple reviews is how good the pilots are. Well-informed, considerate of conditions, and flexible when the weather shifts. A few people missed the glacier landing due to wind and got a scenic flight instead, with a partial refund. So there's a reasonable safety net if the mountain isn't playing nice. This runs July to September only, so plan ahead if it's on your radar.

  • This was an amazing experience!

    The weather was beautiful and the staff organised the flight so the clouds would be disappeared. Very nice! Nice people and pilot.

  • Couldn't do glacier landing due to high winds so got a scenic flight instead taking glaciers & west coast.

    $30 refund given for non-landing & I got to sit beside pilot!

  • What a wonderful experience and something we will never forget.

    Despite the cost it will be one of those things you will be glad you did and the cost will become a non issue.

    Scenic flight around Mt Cook and the glaciers. Landed on one, engine off and walk around. Wonderful experience but not cheap.
