  • 5Everything ran...

    Everything ran efficiently and perfectly, both on the ground and in the air. I especially appreciated how smoothly my case was managed when it needed to be rescheduled because of bad weather. Having the 8 am early start was a lifesaver as my bus leaves at 9:15 on my last day at Franz Josef. Thank you Tim, my pilot, and the ground staff for making this a truly memorable and wonderful experience !

About Franz Josef & Fox Glacier

Franz Josef and Fox are two glaciers on New Zealand's West Coast that flow from the Southern Alps almost into temperate rainforest.

The Franz Josef and Fox glaciers descend from the Southern Alps through steep valleys into lowland rainforest on the West Coast of New Zealand's South Island, ending only a few hundred metres above sea level. The two small townships, about twenty-five kilometres apart, sit in Westland Tai Poutini National Park, part of a UNESCO World Heritage area. Julius von Haast named Franz Josef in 1865 after the Austrian emperor.
