This action-packed four-hour tour offers you the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience the stunning Juneau Icefield first hand. Your world-class adventure begins even before you climb aboard the helicopter, with a briefing from your expert guide. Here, you will also be outfitted with rain protective outerwear, mountain boots, crampons, an ice axe, water and an energy bar. Then it's time to hit the skies for the magnificent flight over lush rainforest and granite peaks, so get your cameras ready. Setting down on the Mendenhall Glacier, your professional guide will then lead you on this breathtaking two-hour, personalized hike through an awe-inspiring icescape. No experience is necessary, but be prepared for physical activity, including comfortable hiking approximately two miles over uneven and sometimes steep terrain. As long as you arrive prepared to have the adventure of a lifetime, you are guaranteed to enjoy this unique back-to-nature opportunity.

特記事項:

Minimum age is 12. Participants must be able to hike two miles. Weight surcharge ($200) may apply on this flight. Due to weight and balance limitations, as well as passenger safety and comfort, the helicopter companies have advised that guests weighing 250 lbs. or more (fully clothed) will be assessed the weight surcharge to reserve adequate space onboard the helicopter. Guests weighing 250 lbs. or more should reserve an extra surcharge ticket and, once onboard, go to the Tour Office to have the ticket charge adjusted down to the surcharge amount. Refer to the FAQ section for important information about flightseeing. On rare occasions, instead of the Mendenhall Glacier, the landing and trek may be on another glacier in the Juneau Icefield.

Carry-on bags are not allowed and there is limited secure storage at the heliport. iPads, iPad minis, tablets, drones and Go-Pro Sticks or other extendable items are not permitted on tour. Aircraft fly no higher than 10,000 feet. Due to the activity level of this tour and the time spent on the ice, if oxygen for personal use is necessary, Tour 850 - Helicopter Glacier Walkabout is a more appropriate tour choice.

Helicopter excursions are not refundable unless cancelled by 12:00 on the day after embarkation.

Provided: Outerwear, boots, gloves, gaitors, hiking equipment (helmet, harness, crampons and ice axe) and hip pack

Snack: Granola bar and bottled water

Liability waiver is required to be signed in the presence of the tour operator.

Unaccompanied Minor Policy: Children under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
