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!

Q&A

Q: What do you wear for the helicopter tour? Is it cold on the glacier?

A: You'll definitely want to dress in layers! It can get pretty chilly, especially once you're on the glacier. Wear a good waterproof jacket, and don't forget gloves and a hat. Sturdy shoes are a must since you’ll be exploring some icy terrain. The helicopter has blankets, but it's better to be prepared!

Q: Can you reschedule if the weather is bad?

A: Yes, they have a flexible rescheduling policy. If the weather isn't safe for flying, they'll work with you to find a new date that suits you. Just make sure to give them a call as soon as possible to discuss your options!

Q: Are there any age limits for kids on this tour?

A: Yes, they generally recommend kids be at least 6 years old to join the tour. It's important for their safety and comfort during the flight. You'll want to check with the provider to confirm their specific age policies, though!
