YOU vs WILD DROP ZONE
You’ve seen it done on the world famous
TV survival show, as the host flies into the
middle of nowhere by helicopter, is dropped into the wilderness and left
to survive, with nothing but what he’s carrying and whatever he finds on his
journey back to civilization.
NOW IT'S HERE!
This is your chance to fly by chopper across Queenstown's Breathing Lake (Wakatipu) high above New Zealand's mountains, in and out of valleys, above ancient native rain forests until we spot our Drop Zone in the middle of a valley, deep in the wilderness.
NO HELI LANDING HERE TEAM! This is where the chopper descends and hovers above the ground, your Heli Tours pilot is highly trained and knows this environment like the back of his hand. Then just like the T.V. show we'll perform a Hover Exit*.
Listen to your guide, you have one chance and one chance only, THIS IS SURVIVAL!

*Hover exit, this is where the helicopter hovers above the ground and the doors open for us to step down in to the wilderness. See video here
