Description:

Soar over breathtaking Middle-earth and explore many stunning landscapes from the sky on this guided helicopter flight. With a pilot who was part of the filming crew, you're sure to see the most dramatic locations from Peter Jackson's epic production.

Follow in the footsteps of the Fellowship as you trace their journey across Middle-earth. Begin with a flight over the Remarkables and Lake Alta, a pristine glacial lake where Frodo and his companions stopped as they fled from Dimrill Dale.

Glide over river basins and canyons before landing at a bluff high above Shotover River, which fans of the epic trilogy recognize as the site where Arwen conjured the flood to dispel the Nazgul. Head back to Queenstown over jagged mountains that crown the landscape, mountains from which Legolas spotted the approaching Wargs. Accompanied and guided by a pilot with an intimate knowledge of the region, expect to explore and learn a lot about the many filming locations of The Lord of the Rings.
