We really enjoyed our tour! Next time we'd like to do a longer tour. Being so close to the mountain tops and glacier were amazing. Seeing the water and city by air was incredible. There is no comparison to seeing the glacier from the air to seeing it from a boat or on foot. To get the birds eye view of the blue water filled crevices was just incredible.

Amazing experience. First time in helicopter and I will never be afraid again. Beautiful going over Bear glacier. Everyone was so helpful with my disabled husband. Highly recommend.

I should start with, these guys helped me out - at short notice. An anchorage based tour i was supposed to be doing was cancelled with little notice as not enough participants, as it was the tail end of the season. As a solo traveller, minimum attendees can be a curse. These guys were able to schedule something with a couple of days notice - and for that i'm super greatful. I paid a solo traveller supplement, and combined glacier landing with the bear 30 min to make the most of my time (& after seeing the Bear glacier pic on the website), losing several hours to the round trip from Anchorage to Seward. After paying the solo traveller supplement, i was somehwat surprised i wasnt a solo traveller and a local woman joined the tour, and the lady from the company joined too for a full helicopter. As a result of the full helicopter, and the route/angles taken i was really disappointed not to be able to photograph Bear from the POV of the water, as i had seen on the website. Had the pilot done a slightly different route, let both sides see the best view, or had one of the other seats been empty i may have gotten the shot i paid a lot of money and gave up a full day for. The rest of my pictures are fine, and the people were incredibly nice - and like i said, they helped me out last minute, but it was a little bittersweet.
