Pair a helicopter flight over the glaciers of Juneau Icefield with a dogsled ride, and you have the perfect Alaska experience. After flying over breathtaking scenery, land at a remote glacier camp for a ride of a lifetime: you’re pulled by Alaskan huskies across fields blanketed with snow, surrounded by towering mountains. Cruise ship passengers please note that the shuttle will pick up one hour before listed flight time.

Q&A

Q: Do you know how long the helicopter ride is compared to the dogsledding part?

A: The helicopter ride typically lasts about 15-20 minutes each way, depending on weather and route. The dogsledding experience on the glacier usually lasts around 1-1.5 hours. So you get a good mix of both! Just be sure to dress warmly; it can get pretty chilly on the glacier.

Q: What if the weather is bad? Can we reschedule?

A: Yes! Coastal Helicopters has a pretty flexible rescheduling policy. If the weather doesn't cooperate, they will try to find another day for you to experience it. Just make sure to call them as soon as you know you need to change your plans.

Q: Are there any age limits or fitness requirements for the dogsledding?

A: There’s no strict age limit, but kids should be at least 8 years old to participate in the ride. As for fitness, you don’t need to be super fit, but some mobility is necessary to get on and off the sled. Just wear suitable clothing and you'll be fine!

Just booked the helicopter dogsledding experience in Juneau!

I’m so excited! I just booked the helicopter and dogsledding experience with Coastal Helicopters for my trip to Alaska next month. The views flying over the glaciers are going to be insane! Plus, I’ve always wanted to try mushing with Alaskan huskies. Anyone who’s done this, what’s it like? Any tips on what to wear?

Has anyone done the helicopter dogsledding in Juneau? Need some advice!

Thinking about getting this experience for my husband as a surprise gift! I’ve heard it’s amazing, but what’s the best time of year to do this? Also, how’s the transportation from the cruise ship?
