Tourism operators are among New Zealand's most committed conservation funders, and we want people to know it.

We employ local people, we invest in the communities surrounding our most iconic natural areas, and we design experiences that connect visitors to New Zealand's natural environment in ways that build appreciation and support for conservation.

We do this because we care about these places. And we do it because we understand that a thriving conservation estate is the foundation everything else is built on.

The Conservation Amendment Bill is about strengthening the system that manages conservation, so responsible operators can continue to contribute, conservation infrastructure gets properly funded, and New Zealand's most treasured landscapes are protected for generations to come. Better management today for stronger conservation and tourism tomorrow.

Submissions close 13th July. Please have your say.

It is with such great sadness that we share our condolences with the family and close friends of Thomas Vialletet who lost his life to Aoraki-Mt Cook ⛰️ this week. The team here at Aspiring Helicopters all agree he was one of the ‘good ones’. A young man we all enjoyed working with. From his easy manner to his professionalism. He was just an all round good bloke. We have no doubt he will be sorely missed within the guiding fraternity.
Farewell Thomas 😪 , it was a pleasure knowing you.
