Shane was an amazing pilot and tour guide! Super informative tour with beautiful views. In addition to glaciers we saw a ton of wildlife including mountain goats, moose and multiple bears. It was a truly unreal, unique experience. This tour was the highlight of our Alaska trip and recommend to anyone traveling here to spend the money and experience this! Memories to last a lifetime!

The trip is mentioned for 3 landing but only 1 landing on glacier and other two are on nearby mountains. The photo taken by pilot was pathetic so better not to go for photo package, instead bring your own camera, don’t waste your money.

Good Afternoon, We’re sorry to hear you didn’t enjoy your experience, when making reservations the locations are clearly stated on where you’ll be landing which 1 glacier and 2 remote landings, as per the photos our pilots try their best to multi task with taking photos of all the guests as well as giving the best tour they possibly can and they are by not professionals. We do hope you enjoyed the rest of your trip to Alaska.
