Our signature flightseeing and glacier landing tour, includes 30 mins of flightseeing and 30 mins landed at 3 Glacier areas including on the glacier itself. This tour includes an alpine landing where you will have 30 mins to see the grand size of the 5 mile wide and 29 mile long Knik Glacier with a birds eye view. Your 2nd landing takes you to a 100 foot ice wall where you may even be able to see the massive ice calve . After 30 minutes exploring you go to the glacier landing right in the middle of Knik Glacier, where you can get out of the helicopter and spend about 30 minutes exploring ancient ice. See the azure blue melt pools (summer), crevasses and ice formations created by water, wind and the sun. During your flight seeing, keep your eyes open for the area wildlife to include Moose, Mountain Goats, Dall Sheep, Bears and even wolf on occasion!

    Terrible. Drove all the way from Anchorage to have them tell us the flight was cancelled. How about a phone call? Bunch of idiots running this place. We didn’t receive any heads up

  • Absolutely worth it!...

    Absolutely worth it! Turner, our pilot, made us feel safe and our 3 landings were unbelievable. We especially loved the cascade glacier. He found us a mountain goat, bear and a moose, too.

  • It was a fantastic trip! ...

    This was hands-down, the best excursion that we have done! 10 out of 10 absolute must do! The grand with three landings was absolutely outstanding. Our guide was knowledgeable and fun. Overall, I do not have enough good things to say amazing!

    If you’re gonna do ANYTHING in Alaska, DO THIS!! Best experience of my life. Our pilot, Cody, was amazing and got us in the best spots on the tour. We did the Grand Knik Tour (2 hours with 3 landings) and I would do it again! Everyone was so nice and it’s definitely worth the money. It feels like a different planet. Plus the pilot took super good pictures of myself and my party!
