Remote West Coast beach
South Island helicopter tours
Over The Top began its adventure in 1986 when Louisa (Choppy) Patterson realised her dream to show a secret part of New Zealand to visitors who desired an experience not normally accessible.
Tip toe through silence
Based in Queenstown, Over the Top are in the perfect location for exploring some of New Zealand 's most beautiful and remote wilderness - the forest and fiords of Fiordland, the majestic peaks of the Southern Alps and the wild and dramatic coastline of Westland.
Trips can be individually tailored and the Over the Top experience gives you the opportunity to comb on a sandy beach where solitude is guaranteed, drink champagne at a remote alpine lake, land on a pristine glacier, meander through a rainforest immersed in nature or see seals, dolphins and penguins in a habitat seldom visited by man.
Pilot sharing knowledge in Milford
One of the most popular trips is "Picnic on a Peak". You will be taken by helicopter to a secluded and remote area and here you will be left alone in the wilderness to enjoy a leisurely champagne lunch. When you are ready you will call on the helicopter which will then return to take you back to civilisation.
The company operates a fleet of four distinctive modern black helicopters, the quality of which reflects and matches the prestigious nature of the tailor made experiences that Over the Top provide. Safety is paramount with the company being recognised nationally and internationally. Over the Top has received the Helicopter Association International (HAI) Operators Safety Award every year since 1999 and is the only company in New Zealand to do so.
