    Najbardziej niesamowite doświadczenie! Nasz przewodnik Connor był absolutną LEGENDĄ - pouczający, przystojny i ciężko pracował, aby zapewnić nam jak najlepszy czas. Gorąco polecam tę wycieczkę innym.

    Lot helikopterem (niestety bardzo krótki) był fantastyczny. Przewodnik był zabawny i przyjazny. Ale większość czasu spędziliśmy na małym obszarze lodowca - tylko na wysokości 700 m - dużo rozmów i wielokrotne przekraczanie lodowych dziur. Spodziewaliśmy się więcej chodzenia po lodzie, wędrówek i zobaczenia większej części lodowca, w tym górnej części. Stosunek ceny do wydajności nie był taki, jakiego oczekiwaliśmy. Powinieneś zaoferować więcej opcji dla osób, które są przyzwyczajone do gór i mają doświadczenie. Przynajmniej powinieneś lepiej informować o rzeczach z wyprzedzeniem.

    An amazing trip. The company has twin objectives of safety and providing an experience to stay with you for a lifetime. We’re an older couple and coped well. Stretch was a great guide - and very tall! The company offers a no questions asked if you arrive and realise there is a chance of not being able to be airlifted from the glacier that day. Bear in mind that this trip is weather dependent. Play it safe and spend an extra night in either Fox or Franz Josef townships.

    The guides are the best at Fox Glacier Guiding, we went with Toa and had a great time! He made sure that everyone in the group (12 ppl) had enough time to see, stop, and explore on the glacier. He was super informative, funny, and made sure to keep us safe. Would recommend to everyone!

As you hike, marvel at the glacier's unique features, such as spectacular ice caves and arches, shaped by nature's forces. The rapid movement of the glacier often results in the formation of fascinating ice structures. Your journey concludes with a helicopter ride back, offering one last chance to soak in the resplendent views.
