I took the 60 minute helicopter tour that landed on the Knik Glacier. It was a magnificent flight and the sights were majestic. Pam, our pilot was top notch and made sure we knew everything we needed to be safe. I can’t recommend this company and trip enough. If you are in the Anchorage area and have the time, this trip is worth the price!

We took the helicopter ride out to Knik Glacier and stayed for about 30 minutes. The ride to and from the Glacier was incredible and we brought back a gallon of Glacier water to drink on our way to Denali. Both of my kids got to sit up front and they had a lot of fun. It is expensive but it is worth the memory of a life time.

We are very happy to hear your feedback and glad you had a fantastic time! Glacier water is some of the cleanest water on earth, so cool you got to take a drink!

We made arrangements the day before for a glacial landing. The price included ground transportation and the helicopter ride. Pam was our pilot who was great. She asked us what we wanted to do sand see and she made every effort to deliver. She was wonderful. Our drivers from and to the hotel were very nice as well. Thanks for making our last day in Alaska truly memorable.
