Wow, this was great, blue ice how beautiful. All employees were wonderful. Everyone knew there job and we had a excellent pilot, knew all about the area. If I had the chance I would go again.

Although the weather was rainy when we left the ship, we waited for the pilot to confirm an okay for flight and it was great, no precipitation on the glacier. It was awesome to walk on the glacier and drink glacial water! The whole family was overwhelmed. Well worth it, and we are still talking about it.

PLEASE READ YOU NEED TO KNOW THIS BEFORE!!!! I purchased this excursion because it was the cheapest I could find for the helicopter ride glacier walk. The others cost around 450 - 600 so spending 290 seemed to be perfect!! HOWEVER, they packed 7 people plus the pilot into 1 helicopter!! We were smashed together, you couldn't move or take pictures in the helicopter and this being my first helicopter ride, I was not happy that I was being pressed against the door!!! I would highly recommend spending the extra 100 - 200 so your not packed into a single helicopter.

Once we got on the glacier it was cool, walked around for about 10 mins or so and took pics, but the helicopter ride is something to be aware of.. 6 people would have been perfect with enough room for everyone, but 7 is way too many!!
