Juneau icefield helicopter tours are the best possible way to experience the breadth and beauty of this awe-inspiring region, as they provide the opportunity to see forty large glaciers and around one hundred smaller ones! The Icefield Helicopter Excursion is the most popular of the helicopter tours in Juneau and features a full hour of unforgettable flightseeing. Your helicopter heads for either the Herbert, Taku, Lemon, or Norris Glacier, where your pilot guide will gently touch down on the glacier itself, shut down the engines, and conduct you on a fascinating and informative walk in this other-worldly, frozen environment. The remote beauty of frozen rivers of ice backed by rugged, ice-capped mountain peaks is truly spell-binding, and with helicopter tours in Juneau like this one, you get to experience a 360-degree aerial view, take a walk on a glacier, experience the thrill of a helicopter ride, and encounter a heart-stopping landing right on one of the largest glaciers in the Juneau Icefield!
For a helicopter adventure combined with glacier dogsledding, you might consider our Helicopter & Dogsled Glacier Excursion.

Must do!This excursion is a must do in Juneau! The staff is very proffesional beginning with the booking experience right on through to the actual flight. Our pilot was very knowledgeable and gave a very informative narration during the flight over the ice fields. He choose an area on the glacier away from other tours so we felt as though we were alone on this icy wonderland. The glaciers are absolutely majestic and beautiful. Thank you for a great excursion.

Incredible!From start to finish - an absolutely incredible experience. Everything was organized so well, right from being picked up at the cruise ship, the helicopter ride and being taken back. This experience should be done by all who have the opportunity!

A must do excursion!This was the highlight of our 7 day cruise. Definitely a bucket list item and much cheaper than anything close to it that was offered by the cruise line. Pilot was very informative and staff was helpful and friendly.

SpectacularI took this excursion in July 2016 and it was perfect. The people that ran the tour were very professional and helpful. Our pilot, Jaimie, was very knowledgeable about the glacier and provided excellent information about our surroundings. Bring your camera because the photo opportunities are once in a lifetime. I can't recommend this enough.

Fantastic trip to Juneau ice fieldsAmazing!!!!
This excursion was the highlight of our stop in Juneau. Knowledgable, helpful staff. The helicopter ride over the ice fields to the glacier was breathtaking. Our pilot landed us in a spot on the glacier where the was not another helicopter so it felt like we were the only ones exploring! Don't miss this excursion!

PhenomenalThis was the experience of a lifetime. The pilot narrated throughout the flight and engaged everyone. The info he shared was very informative. The flight was smooth and the landing on the glacier was flawless. He was very helpful offering to take pictures of everyone and sharing as much info as he could about the glacier. This is a trip I would recommend for anyone who is fortunate enough to make it to Alaska.
