Incredible experience with Seward Helicopter Tours - This was the third flightseeing tour that we did in a week and thought it might be too similar to the previous tours for it to be really enjoyable. However, this was one of the most amazing things I have ever done and so grateful that we got to experience it. The scenery was breathtaking! It was our pilot that made this trip absolutly incredible though. He was very experienced and was able to provide the most memorable part of our two week trip through Alaska. We were able to fly so close over the glaciers and felt like we were taking part in a action movie - with the pilot ensuring that we felt safe and comfortable with this all the way through the flight. Words can not explain this tour, other than that we would pay double to do it again. The photos that are on the website are actually the views that you experience, not from a camera with a good zoom. We saw the most beautiful icebergs in blue lakes, the coast line offered a different but equally beautiful view. We saw different views of the glaciers that we had not previously experienced and we were also lucky enough to see a bear and lots of other wildlife - despite the grey and rainy weather! What was equally impressive was how fantastic the entire team were. I recieved a phone call rather than lots of emails back and forth to discuss my plans. I changed my mind sereval times and they were exceptionally accomodating and so friendly. I really can't recommend this company enough. We followed this tour with the dog sledding tour, the musher was equally as lovely.

Absolute Best Thing we did in Alaska - Of all the things we did in Alaska, this one stood out at the top for every one of us, in our group of 7. We did two tours back-to-back: the Helicopter Glacier DogSledding, and the Grand Tour - glaciers, Kenai peninsula from the air. Everything about the tour was also just awesome. The incredibly safe, experienced, and engaged pilots pointed out glacial and geological features, bears, goats, even a brown bear's den. The ride was smooth, safe, and the scenery out of this world - it really left me speechless. The dogsledding was also a unique and exciting experience - very authentic, and the staff were welcoming and professional.

Awesome experience - definitely recommend! - We had a fantastic time - and we REALLY appreciate the switch from 9am to just after lunch to take advantage of great weather conditions. This was an amazing view of the mountains, glaciers, and the bay. The flight was surprisingly smooth. Highly recommended!!!!!!

Amazing - bucket list stuff - How can this have no other reviews?! It was more expensive than the other tours - but if you can do it, it's worth the extra. The extra flight time allowed us to see a few special spots and even circle around for wildlife that we would have missed without the extra time. Saw two black bears right outside bear glacier, so many waterfalls it rivals Hawaii, eagles and goats galore, and so many beautiful icebergs it felt like Iceland. Great company, great team and wonderful owners. The absolute highlight of the trip for me - riding the train down was a bonus.
