We had a great time - 2 adults and 2 kids. We were met by our cruise ship and took a short van ride to the airport. After a safety video we boarded our helicopters 1 6 people plus a pilot. Everyone was provided with slip covers boots for traction which go over your shoes. They also had rain jackets if you needed one. We had a cold and rainy day - wish we had rain pants. The ride to the glaciers was great. Saw whales as we passed over the water. One on the glacier we were free to roam with our guide. This was a once in a lifetime trip.

It was amazing. The view of the glacier from the helicopter was stunning, and walking on it was like being on another planet.
