        Wow! No words to describe you have to see yourself.
        Let’s start with an amazing pilot. Nick was very best at what he does. He made this incredible trip happen. Our 9th wedding anniversary celebration. Unlike anything we have ever experienced. If you haven’t done this trip, do it you will be glad you did.

        Amazing experience with a great company
        I got a birthday present to do a helicopter flight with Alpine Air and man am I glad we did! Our pilot Mytty was awesome and very friendly while also being safety first. He was a great pilot and knew a lot about the area. Landing on the glaciers was also amazing and totally a life changing experience. The helicopter was comfortable and clean. You seriously need to just do a flight with them!

        Great experience
        Nick, our pilot, was great. Very personable and knowledgeable. He made sure that he maneuvered the helicopter so that both my wife and I had excellent views of whatever we were looking at. The staff at the facility was very accommodating. Would strongly recommend as being worth the money

        Flight of a lifetime
        Definitely one of the highlights of our adventure in Alaska. Our pilot Nate did an excellent job of explaining all things related to the flight. The vistas were vast and incredible. We would absolutely do this again. Randy & Diana

        Epic experience
        If we could give this place a 100 for reviews we would! The experience was amazing from start to finish. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable, super careful about safety, patient, fun, and on time. They geared us up well for a chilly experience on a glacier. The helicopter ride up was smooth and exhilarating. Once we got onto the glacier, we got to visit the dogs that were so excited to go running. We even spent about 15 minutes with the cute puppies that had been born a few weeks earlier. The sled ride itself was such a fun experience-it's hard to describe. It's such a unique kind of adventure. I was actually the one braking in the back & fell off while trying to brake. No worries though. The guide braked at the next earliest opportunity & waited for me to rejoin. My family will cherish this tour for the rest of our lives!

        Much better than expected. My wife loves animals and she was happy with the interaction, especially with the puppies! Guides, Haylee and Shannon, were knowledgeable and friendly! Helicopter ride was great!

        Beautiful scenery, sweet puppies, and so much FUN!
        We had an amazing experience with Air Alaska and the dogsled tour! Both staff were great and very knowledgeable. The views from the helicopter and the glacier itself are unbeatable. You can never be bored on top of the glacier as there are sweet puppies to hold, the dogsled tour and a sledding hill of a lifetime (if you can make it to the top)! Highly recommend the dogsled tour!

        MUST-DO!!!!!
        BUCKET LIST ADVENTURE!!! What an incredibly amazing, beautiful, and FUN afternoon! We had the BEST experience. Everything from scheduling (we had a question and got immediate feedback via cell phone!), to finding the hangar, to the actual flight with our professional and friendly pilot, to the dog sled/mushing crew exceeded ALL expectations!! We played with puppies, met the sled dogs (and scratched lots and lots of ears), mushed on the dog sled trail, saw glacial majesty, and even sledded before we flew back down. I recommend this excursion to EVERYONE (our mother was limited in her physical abilities, but the staff catered to her). An unforgettable fabulous day our family will never forget! Thank you, Danny Seavey (& crew) and Alpine Air!

        Our favorite day - 2 landing helicopter tour!
        Wow! We did the 2 landing helicopter flight from Girdwood and it had the most amazing views. Our pilot, Nate, was knowledgeable and knew exactly where to go to give us the best experience. We saw moose in the valley, beautiful mountain views and the glaciers 😍 left us speechless. Highly recommend the 2 landing trip, we were able to land on a glacier and spend time exploring the mulans and other features. Fantastic.

        Unique and fun experience with animals and views
        My wife and I used Alpine Air Alaska through Seavey's Iditaride Dog-Sledding tour. Our driver (Kris) was a lot of fun and engaging to converse with on the drive to and from the tour. Our experience with Alpine Air set a high bar for the rest of our vacation in Alaska for sure!

        Helicopter n Dog Sledding
        Everything from the van ride from the hotel to helicopter ride to the dog sledding was truly an amazing experience. Thought Id be scared of the helicopter ride but it was very smooth. Thought Id fall off the Dog Sled but that was very fun and so smooth. The dogs and their care takers were wonderful. I fully recommend this experience!

      I thoroughly enjoyed viewing the scenery from a bird's-eye view. The scenery and our positive experience with Alpine Air Alaska will be etched in my mind for a lifetime. The pilot was knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. The front office staff were very willing to work with us during this unpredictable time as we weren't sure if we would be able to make the trip due to the pandemic. We payed our deposit, and they kept us informed. In addition to our Prince William Sound Tour we went on the dog sledding trip which I highly recommend. Our overall experience with Alpine Air was second to none.

      Our group of 5 were in Alaska for a business trip and we managed to fit in some time to experience Alaska. The tour we booked with Alpine Air was absolutely SPECTACULAR!! Not only were the views and experience amazing but the office staff and pilots were wonderful! We landed on a glacier and were able to get out and do some exploring which was incredible! The path to Prince William Sound was cut off due to weather but that didn't stop the fun. The pilots landed on the top of a mountain where we were able to get out and walk around. The view was like nothing I've ever seen! The pilots were great about spotting/pointing out the different wildlife on the mountain. We saw black bears (with 2 cubs), moose, bald eagles, and mountain goats. You can't go wrong with this company!

      The price may scare you away but this is truly worth every penny. The views are like no other. Although we couldn’t fly to Prince William Sound due to the afternoon winds, we opted for the same amount of flight time to view additional glaciers, points of interest, and wildlife. They offered a slight refund if we only wanted to do the glacier stop. Scott our pilot was a wonderful guide with a keen eye for spotting Moose, Dall sheep, and other unusual sightings. He was a wealth of information. We highly recommend and would definitely do again with Alpine in a different location.
      We also did a glacier snowmobile tour in Girdwood. If we had to pick one, the helicopter tour would be our choice.
      Of note… a mask is required while in flight per aviation guidelines.

      Excellent tour covering Girdwood, multiple glaciers, Prince William Sound. Landed on a glacier and took photos and videos. Excellent at it's best. Would recommend their services highly. Martin was a superb pilot pointing out informative and interesting points along the route. The staff of Alpine Air Alaska are all effective and knowledgeable. Very enjoyable journey.

      As a solo traveler, Alpine Air was great to get me on their standby list until they could work me in with a couple or other solo travelers. The views from the helicopter were spectacular, and the glacier landing was everything and more than I expected. In all, we got to see 5 glaciers as well as the Prince William Sound (including landing on 1 of them)

      While I originally wanted to do the dogsledding tour, it got cancelled twice due to bad weather. But they were happy to book me onto a glacier landing tour as i had no availability to reschedule the dogsledding after the second cancellation. The pilot was absolutely amazing and so was the flight itself. We saw bears and moose on our flight over the national park. The glacier landing itself was exhilarating. We felt safe and excited all at the same time. Would definitely recommend.

      We did the ultimate package and it was *so* worth it. The glacier landing was awesome - my personal favorite thing on our entire Alaska trip! Touring Prince William Sound was super cool, and worth seeing. My wife's favorite part was the dog sledding which came after our glacier landing/tour. Expensive but made our trip - worth every penny. Definitely recommend.

      We booked glacier tours with three different companies. All offered unique perspectives, but Alpine Air was by far the most bang for your buck. The views were incredible and I can’t wait to come back and do it again. Highly recommend. Don’t even think about it. Do it!

      Weather wasn't cooperating and we couldn't go all the way to Prince William Sound. but we still spent an hour exploring the glaciers with a landing on Spencer and on a ridge where they often have weddings. Breathtakingly beautiful. Lena our pilot did a fantastic job. Highly recommend
