What an amazing experience! Our pilot Christian was great. Landing on a 40k year old glacier and walking around was just unbelievable. Should be on everyone’s bucket list.

My wife and I had an absolutely amazing time on this tour. Our pilot/guide was Martin and he was fantastic - very friendly and knowledgeable, excellent pilot, and he took some fantastic pictures of us on the glacier. The pictures don’t do this tour justice - the views and sights we saw were breathtaking, and Martin’s piloting and knowledge of the area made it even better. For example, he knew when to tell me to get my camera ready for video for a very dramatic reveal of the glacier over a hilltop, and when my wife said we hadn’t seen moose all week, he knew right where to look and we saw two within minutes. Cannot recommend this enough. This was our first time in a helicopter and it will be hard to top!

Amazing!! My husband and I decided to elope and booked this through our photographer. Everyone was so nice and the trip/views were so beautiful! Our pilot, Martin, was also so great! He made sure to take us to the best location for our photographs and even helped make sure my dress looked good for each photo! It was such a beautiful and personalized experience and something my husband and I will never forget!
