Wonderful - The overall 5 star rating is well deserved. We stayed in Ketchikan for 10 days and did about every tour available. This tour was no less than outstanding. Our pick-up was exactly on time at the designated location and the driver was a pleasure. Our pilot, Tyler, could not have been more profession or entertaining. We were stymied from some of the planned views like the waterfalls because of the mist and fog. However, Tyler turned this around and got us up close and personal to the lakes, hills, and a group of mountain goats, a rare sight I really appreciated. The views were surreal, a Jurassic Park-like experience. We wrapped the tour up by flying up the southern coast of the island where we saw a feeding mother bear and cubs next to one of the hatcheries. This tour was a wonderful life experience for both my wife and I. Kudos to the entire Helicopter Air Alaska team.

Amazing Experience - We were lucky enough to have a clear beautiful day and the views were amazing! Tyler was our pilot and he did a great job at answering questions and telling about the area. It was amazing to see the mountain goats, waterfall, lakes and islands from above. We spent the whole weekend in Ketchikan and this was one of the highlights of our trip!

Highlight of our Alaskan vacation!! - The combo tour was absolutely fantastic for our family to four! They scooped us up in record time in a warm, dry van from the cold and rainy spot our cruise transport bus dropped us off at. Everyone we interacted with was super friendly and helpful! On the tour, we flew over everything from waterfalls to whales and then landed on a remote beach to do some exploring. The rain and cold didn’t matter one bit…we still had an excellent time!!!! It was such a unique experience and our pilot was so extremely friendly and informative. I cannot recommend Helicopter Air Alaska highly enough!!
