Best excursion in Alaska!!!

Published on Oct, 2024

We went on June 2022. One of the best experiences that we have on our trip. Great helicopter ride with incredible views, dogslead experience was great, the place we did the sledding was unreal, and finally the glacier landing was amazing.

Dog sledding and glacier landing a must do in Alaska

Published on Oct, 2024

What an amazing bucket list experience. Don’t have words for how beautiful the sights. Pilot Shane Cottom was fantastic and took us to the most gorgeous glacier, so worth the expense.

Alaska Flightseeing Tour

Published on Sep, 2024

Amazing views...would definitely recommend! Our original flightseeing tour to was cancelled due to weather, however, we were able to rebook on another day. What an incredible experience to land on a glacier and go dog sledding...the pilot and the dog sledding trainer team were all informative, professional, engaged, and inviting. This was an experience of a lifetime!

Tour of a lifetime!

This was thrilling from checking in to landing,. The staff were incredible. The pilot made us feel safe while explaining the glaciers. He pointed out mountain goats albeit they were white dots. The dog mushing was wonderful. We got to mush then exchanged to riders. An experience that we will never forget! The staff there were also wonderful. They explained about the dogs and we were allowed to hold puppies if we wanted. Would recommend this trip to any and everyone. A must do!

Like nothing else!
