Alaska helicopter tours is a must do . Our experience with Jessy as our pilot was the best. He made sure we got the most out of the scenery and we saw lots of wildlife. Thanks Jessy!

My 81 year old mother, my wife and I, signed up for the helo, dog sled and glacier walk. Our pilot, Michael Brooks, was an excellent pilot, tour guide and assisted my mom down to the glacier's edge! He was very polite and courteous and we really enjoyed the trip! Thank you again! May 8, 2024
