Experience Alaska from both above and below on this unforgettable one-hour tour. Your adventure begins with a helicopter flight over stunning mountain peaks, deep valleys, and ancient icefields. Keep your eyes peeled for wildlife as your pilot navigates through one of the most glacier-rich regions in North America.

Next, touch down on an actual glacier—a place few ever get to step foot. You’ll have 30 minutes to explore, sip fresh glacier water and take in the surreal surroundings with your camera in hand.

This tour is the perfect mix of scenic flightseeing and immersive glacier adventure.
