What To Expect

Talkeetna Air Taxi

You will start your excursion by checking into our log cabin office at the Talkeetna State Airport 45 minutes prior to your flight departure. Be sure to bring your sunglasses, light jacket (in the summer) and plenty of memory on your camera. Board our ski-equipped aircraft and enjoy your pilots' commentary about the geological history and local wildlife on your individual headset. Continue your flight above Talkeetna and over the river systems of the Susitna valley as you enter into an incredible landscape of icefalls, glaciers and snow peaks. You'll be awed by the Great Gorge of the Ruth Glacier, filled with a 4,000 foot thick river of ice, making this one of the deepest gorges in the world. Add a glacier landing onto your trip for a highlight of your Alaska vacation. This will add 30 minutes onto your trip time for this chance to bask in awe inspiring scenery.

What an amazing day! All I can say is wow, wow, wow. It was a windy day and a glacier landing was cancelled but the pilots called an audible and found a location for us to land and it was simply incredible. I can’t say enough about the experience. The views of the mountains were amazing and the pilot was very informative. If you’re considering this company I highly recommend!

I've been to Alaska many times, my mom is even from there, but had never been able to take a tour like this! I took a trip with my best girlfriends and decided to treat them to the best AK has to offer (which isn't difficult), so we chose Southside explorer with a glacier landing. Long story short, this tour is the most incredible experience I have ever had in my entire life, HANDS DOWN. Not only were we lucky enough to get a full view of Denali in the early morning, but we had an incredible flight, and wicked cool pilot (Lianne), and an absolutely breathtaking time on the glacier. We couldn't be more ecstatic about this tour and have kept talking about it ever since! Will be HIGHLY recommending to anyone and everyone who wants to see the most beautiful state the way it's meant to be seen- by air! Thank you so much TAT!

Everyone was wonderful especially our pilot. If you are going to spend the money make sure to do the flight with the glacier landing. This was an experience of a lifetime. Our pilot went above and beyond, no pun intended, She was determined to have us see the summit if at all possible in spite of the clouds rolling in. Well she did it, although it wasn’t a lot or for long, we saw it and what a treat to have extra time on the glacier, maybe because we were the last flight of the day but I say because she is awesome and loves what she does and you can see that she love sharing her time and knowledge. I highly recommend and I would definitely do it again!!!!
