        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!

        Awesome experience
        Had an amazing time. All staff were very friendly and professional. The sledding ride was so much fun and learned a lot from the mushers

        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!

        Best part of our vacation!
        This tour was the best part of our Alaska trip! The views were breathtaking and the landscape was stunning. Safety was clearly a top priority throughout the entire experience. Our pilot, Nick, ensured we always felt comfortable and secure. The helicopter was modern and well-maintained which added to our peace of mind it being our first time up in one. Everyone at Alpine Air was wonderful. Thanks to Nick for making it more than just a sightseeing tour, it was a memorable experience of a lifetime!
