Description

Embark on the exclusive Ketchikan Combo Helicopter Tour and soar above the breathtaking landscapes of the Tongass Forest and Inside Passage. This unique journey through Alaska's Southeastern skies will take you over Revillagigedo Island to the majestic Mahoney Falls before heading south to the picturesque Annette Island Reserve—an area this tour has special access to. After soaking in the aerial views, you'll land atop the northern peak of Annette Island for a 10-minute exploration of the stunning landscape and panoramic vistas of the Inside Passage, all while avoiding the cruise ship crowds. Keep your eyes peeled on the return flight for a chance to spot Southeast Alaska's marine wildlife!

Your adventure begins with a scenic drive through Ketchikan to the helicopter launch site. After a brief 10-minute safety briefing, you'll be ready for takeoff. Enjoy spectacular views of Revillagigedo Island and the dramatic Mahoney Falls as you head south along the Inside Passage toward Annette Island Reserve.

The Annette Island Reserve offers an exclusive retreat away from the usual tourist spots, thanks to special permits required to access this secluded area. Once there, you'll land on a high peak for 10 minutes of exploration, breathtaking views, and engaging stories from your guide. Don’t forget your camera for a group photo at this unforgettable location! Your return flight provides another opportunity to witness the incredible marine wildlife that makes Southeast Alaska so special. The tour concludes with a drop-off right back at your cruise docks, ensuring a seamless and memorable experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do the flights ever get canceled due to weather?
Yes, safety is the number one priority so weather conditions are taken into account for each departure. In certain cases, the weather can lift and a slight delay will still allow the flight to continue. However, if a flight is canceled completely due to weather circumstances, you will receive a refund less any non-refundable fees.
What if our cruise ship's schedule is canceled or delayed?
We will try our best to work with you to reschedule the tour to a later time. If that is not a possibility or your ship doesn't make it into port, then you will receive a refund, less any non-refundable fees.
How big are the helicopters?
There are a few types of helicopters used for the tour, and you'll typically be in a group of 3 guests on the flight. Multiple aircraft will be used for groups larger than this.
Can you see wildlife from the helicopter?
If you have sharp eyes, it's certainly possible to see wildlife on the mountains below. The helicopter flies low enough to distinguish individual animals, but of course the pilots have to respect local wildlife so it's not an objective of this tour.
