For the guest wanting to go longer and further than the rest, this tour is approximately 90 minutes from the time it lifts off until it returns to the heliport. In addition, instead of making several landings, you get more flying time.
Your helicopter flight will take you over the spectacular rock formations and icefalls of the Juneau Icefield, bypassing the crowded Mendenhall Glacier as it heads toward less mobbed, glaciers such as the Herbert, Taku, Lemon or Norris Glacier further from the heliport. The tour will be narrated by either a custom CD or by your knowledgeable pilot/guide.
Upon reaching your destination your pilot/guide will shut down the helicopter and escort you on an informative, relaxing walk while describing the area that surrounds you.
Time on the glacier is approximately 20 minutes. Then its back in the helicopter for flightseeing even deeper into the Icefield to see some of the most remote peaks and glaciers in the Juneau Icefield. Your pilot will create the best possible flight seeing based on the weather and glacier conditions. Total flight time during the tour is approximately 50 minutes.
