Alaska Helicopter and Glacier Dogsled Tour - ANCHORAGE AREA

Overview

The most popular tour! Drive your own sled-dog team with 4 time Iditarod winner Dallas Seavey's team of mushers, handlers and champion dogs on real snow in the middle of summer surrounded by amazing scenery. Start this adventure with a helicopter ride over glaciers and icebergs. We often see moose, black bears, Dall sheep and goats. Land on a huge snow eld high on a glacier and enjoy a whole hour with champion sled dogs and their mushers that live here all summer. Take the dog team for an exhilarating ride through real snow. You can stand on the runners and mush your own dog team or just sit on the sled and let the mushers run the team. After your dogsled tour meet the canine athletes that pulled your sled, listen to stories about running sled dog races of over a 1,000 miles long, and of course take pictures with your favorite dogs. After the tour the helicopter takes you back to the lodge and you’ll fly over the lower glaciers where you can see the blue melt pools and the crevasses.

This tour was without doubt the best experience ever. Jeff, the chopper pilot, was such a great guy. Great sense of humour and loads of interesting information. The dogs, including Nigel the very vicious terrier and Silver, the six month pup in training, were amazing. It was very clear from the moment we landed that the relationship between the mushers and their dogs was something I could have watched all day. The dogs love them and equally they loved their dogs. We were permitted to interact with the dogs as much as we liked and it was obvious that they were more interested in getting picked to be hitched to the sled to go for a run, than talking to us. These dogs are so fit and clearly love what they do. I could write about this fantastic adventure for hours but rather than reading my review, do yourself a favour and just go see and experience it for yourself. You won’t be disappointed. Our thanks to the very experienced team of mushers for answering all our questions and sharing your dogs with us. We enjoyed telling you all how life is like in the Australian outback too.

After a breath taking scenic and informative commentary by the very experienced helo pilot - Jemiah, we came into view of the Dog Sledding and Mushers Camp. As we set down and began to offload we were greeted by the barking of excited dogs ready and waiting near by to take us on our tour. The mascot and baby of camp - Silver was very much the favorite in everyone's hearts, the camp team included. After an interactive encounter with the dogs and our tear around the snow on a led we got he chance to discuss life on the frontier and spend more time with the dogs. Then, back to the chopper to make our descent to Knik River Lodge landing but not before taking off over the edge of the cliff for another breath taking view of the gorges and rivers below. Scenic cruise around the mountain tops searching for wildlife and a closer look at the glacier. before setting back down at the landing.

From hotel pickup to return these five Canadian friends loved this adventure. The scenery is pristine and no description could give it credit. The dog sledding was fantastic even if a couple of us fell off the sled while driving...our host, Justin and his dogs were the BEST hosts...worth every dollar invested in this adventure. If you don’t go you’re missing the best Alaska has to offer!
