Your mode of transport as you fly over the incredible southeast Alaskan terrain is a modern, turbine helicopter, which first takes you over the lush rainforest and stunning granite peaks that surround the Juneau Icefield. After your incredible flightseeing tour, your pilot will set down on the Mendenhall Glacier. During your intimate, one-hour glacier walk, your professional guide will provide you with detailed explanations of glacier environments and allow plenty of time for you to take photographs. Rain and windproof outerwear, boots and gloves will be provided, as will trekking poles, crampons and a snack pack. After you have fully absorbed this incredible natural wonder, it will be time to climb back onto the helicopter for the equally awe-inspiring flight home. Keep cameras at the ready, as you never know what wildlife you might spot from your aerial seat.

特記事項:

Minimum age is 8. Participants must be able to stand and walk for one hour. 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 walk may be on another glacier in the Juneau Icefield.
