Flight seeing is a wonderful way to Really experience Denali. Great pilot/Udo

Published on Sep, 2024

Wow!We took the Denali round the mountain tour with Udo as our pilot.! It was breathtaking to fly over the fall foliage and then up to Denali.It was snowing so were unable to fly around. we go to see the mountains and glacial lakes,and We flew up to Sheldon Chalet and the Ampitheater.This was the highlight of our trip. I highly recommend Sheldon air service. Robert Sheldon was most interested in us having a great experience. and we did.Thank you Robert and Udo

Tom, best pilot ever!

Published on Jul, 2024

Our pilot, Tom is an excellent pilot and incredibly knowledgeable of the area. Fabulous tour!!! I don’t honestly like to do this again if we had time.

Best Ever Experience with Crew and Aircraft

Published on Jun, 2024

Trip was top notch. Instructions were clearly given on how to use headsets, descriptions of the mountain and glaciers, and the natural aspects of the mountain in regard to the nature of the glaciers. Udo was incredibly knowledgeable about the area and the history which was very interesting. He is an incredible pilot with years of flying experience which made us feel very comfortable. I would travel again with him in a heartbeat. Very nice staff and helpful with all questions.
