Can't recommend this trip enough. Joseph, our pilot, was terrific--he made us feel safe, gave us great info during the flight, and was lovely all around. I was a very nervous flier but the flight was calm and easy and the views were stunning. We did the Ultimate Day Package and enjoyed both the Village and Bays tour and the Ulva Island Explorer with Real NZ. Jan and Karen's passion for the bird watching and the fauna was contagious. The box lunch was delicious and given to us as we waited for the Ulva Island trip. What a great day trip from Queenstown.

Absolutely loved the Stewart Island experience with Glenorchy Air. The flight was stunning and Michael our pilot was fantastic and very knowledgeable. It was the perfect amount of time to explore the township, have lunch and jump on a water taxi to explore Ulva Island. Highly recommend this trip!

We had an amazing day flying to Stewart Island with Glenorchy Air. We felt in very safe hands with Joseph, our pilot, who supplied interesting and fun facts during the flight and helped to coordinate things on the ground at Stewart Island for us. Stewart Island and Ulva Island tours were brilliant for understanding remote island life, local wildlife conservation and the super knowledgeable bird guides. I would love to go back to Stewart Island and stay overnight for a chance of seeing Kiwis and being able to spend more time on Ulva Island. The views from the plane were amazing!

Took a side trip to Stewart Island and it was a wonderful trip. Our pilot Tim was great and was very calming to my wife who had never flown on a small aircraft before. The weather was perfvect and Tim pointed out all the sites on the flight as well as explaining to her what all the radio traffic meant. The approach back into Queenstown was breath taking. I would recommend this trip to all.

Had the most amazing day out last friday!! Our pilot had lots of info, very chilled, and its great to see stewart island from the sky! On the island we had plenty of time to explore around, we did a boat to Ulva Island which was great to see wildlife and the beautiful beaches :) Highly recommended experience, and the service from the whole crew was top notch! Thank you for a great day exploring Stewart Island!

We booked this after the Milford Sound flight the day before. The guy on who took our booking was super helpful and suggested a couple of things to do, given we rang at 4.30pm it was a great effort to book us in and the extra excursions. Our Pilot was super friendly and professional and obviously loved his job and the company. Nothing was too much trouble these guys were awesome.
