So much fun and so different than a plane or float plane. A Helicopter experience is a must and landing on the glacier was an added bonus. Loved how we could fly through the valley and up to the top of the mountain and glacier and land in a small area - great time seeing so much different landscape, got to see a moose and several bear and our pilot flew back around so we could get pics - lots of fun!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

So glad I didn’t chicken out!! This was a true highlight. It was so to see the absolutely beautiful landscape of the Alaskan mountains and Glaciers. I felt very safe with our pilot and would definitely recommend the 60 minute Glacier landing trip. I would say this is a must when visiting Alaska. I even bought a hat, haha, to remember my adventure!!
