Juneau Shore Excursions: Helicopter Dogsledding Experience and Additional Glacier Landing

Overview
The only way to experience the best of both tours! If you’re having trouble picking between a landing at the lower level of the glacier to view crevasses and beautiful features of glacial movement, and an authentic dog sled tour on an amazing expanse of glacial snow, look no further. This tour combines the best of both options, providing the full experience at the dog camp with an incredible walkabout at the lower level of the glacier.

We brought the sun and warmer temps with us from Georgia : ) The locals were very thankful ; ) Words and pictures can’t begin to describe this trip. The helicopter ride, the dogs and landing on an additional glacier was fantastic! It was a once in a lifetime trip for us and worth every single penny! Do not hesitate to book this incredible adventure. You won’t regret it!

This was the best trip ever! Everyone from drivers to pilots to the dog handlers and mushers were awesome. Very knowledgeable and fun loving. We had a beautiful day which helps but the slights from the air were breath taking and the dog sledding was pure fun. I also recommend doing the glacier walk. Glacier water is the best!! This was truly a highlight of the vacation.

Was just in Juneau & did the dog sledding excursion & additional glacier landing/tour. Amazing excursion! Very professional organization and feit very safe & organized and cognizant of cruisers and return time. Dog sledding was an incredibly unique experience that's worth doing at least once. Can be very cold on the glacier - bring warm & waterproof/water resistant clothes. The extra stop landing on the glacier was even better than the dogsledding. It does add expense, but you can't really understand glaciers until you've walked on one. Just do it! Finally, we had a minor issue & the company did a great job solving our problem. 5 stars & would do this excursion again!
