Amazing Experience

Terrific staff, skilled and personable pilot. We saw moose and circled around to get a better look and great photos. The mountains and glaciers are stunning when seen from a bird's eye view. I highly recommend doing this. The cost is worth it.
Epic

A really cool experience, especially if you love the outdoors. Saw about 12 moose from above—it’s an epic thing to do. Helicopter is small.
Amazing experience!

Even on a rainy day, this experience was amazing! Great view of the mountains, a glacier, and some wildlife. Pilots are very knowledgeable about the area. Staff was awesome and made us feel at ease. Felt completely safe the entire time!

The trip was absolutely wonderful! Our family took two helicopters out to the glaciers, and both pilots were awesome! They were super knowledgeable about the area, super friendly, and great photographers when we got to the glacier! Everyone at the hangar was so friendly and helpful, and made the experience one that I know we'll never forget! 10 out of 10 would recommend for everyone!
