About Alaska Helicopter Tours
Alaska Helicopter Tours connects adventurous travelers to Alaska’s most dramatic icefields, rivers, and alpine ridgelines. Operating out of the Knik River Valley and nearby hubs, the company offers a curated selection of helicopter experiences: guided heli-hiking, glacier swim and hike trips, summer ice climbing, packrafting drops at glacier confluences, e‑mountain bike adventures, paddle boarding in glacial melt pools, winter snowshoe treks, private glacier elopements, Bear Glacier scenic flights, and one‑way transfers to Alaska Glacier Lodge.
Each trip pairs experienced pilots with professional guides who manage route planning, safety briefings, and on‑site instruction for activities such as ice climbing, packrafting, and paddle boarding. Small group sizes on many departures keep experiences intimate and allow guides to adapt pace and skill coaching to participants. Private options are available for paddle boarding, elopements, and charter flights.
Safety and environmental respect are emphasized through pre‑flight checks, dry suit use when required, and route selection that minimizes impact on fragile glacial terrain. Aircraft and ground gear are maintained to industry standards, and guides use local knowledge of weather and glacier conditions to choose safe landing sites.
Alaska Helicopter Tours caters to both active outdoor enthusiasts and travelers seeking dramatic scenic flights and memorable milestone events. The operation’s diverse itinerary, focus on expert-led outdoor instruction, and options for private or small‑group departures make it a reliable choice for experiencing Alaska’s glaciers from the air and on the ground. Guests consistently value clear communication, flexible scheduling, local expertise, reliable safety practices, and personalized guidance on every excursion.
