We did the helicopter landing 15 years ago and still remember it well. Great experience and something we will never forget. While it was expensive, we have long ago forgotten about the cost of it, but not the fantastic views or experience of walking on a glacier! Plus, the pilot and tour guides were very educational about glaciers.

Other than traveling through Denali National Park - this is the excursion we remember the most from our trip. It is an amazing experience.

 

 

Just a head’s up - most helicopters have a passenger weight limit.

 

 

I remember a very tall male customer being charged for two seats because he weighted more than 250 lbs. That was more than 10 years ago, so the equipment may be different now.

We had to get on the scale prior to being assigned seats so they could balance the load. And there was an extra charge above a certain weight. You also could not bring on any bags.
