About this activity
When your cruise ship docks at the Juneau port, you’ll be picked up from the cruise terminal and you’ll kick off your Alaskan experience with an informative and entertaining van ride from your Juneau hotel to the heliport to begin your amazing helicopter tour.

Enjoy stellar aerial views as you soar over rock formations and icefalls while learning about the spectacular sights from your knowledgeable pilot, who’ll act as your guide for your entire experience, including your landing and walkabout on the glacier. Make your way by helicopter to either the Herbert Glacier descending to the glacier below for the second part of your tour.

When you land, you’ll be taken on a serene walk along the glacier surface, nestled among mountain peaks blanketed in ice and snow – a beautiful sight! You'll learn about your surroundings and be free to ask your pilot-guide any questions you have about Alaska’s natural history, geology, meteorology and more. Be sure to dress warmly, as it can be quite cold on the glacier.

After your time on the icefield, savor more aerial views on your helicopter flight back to Juneau. Upon landing, you’ll have the oppurtunity for final photos and time to warm up before enjoying a return van trip back to your cruise port.

My wife and I really enjoyed the ride to the glaciers. We were happy to see that the shuttle was on time in the cruise port. Our pilot Ryan was great. He made it a very comfortable ride. The views were spectacular.

Great excursion to be on with a wonderful pilot. We were lucky that it was not cancelled since it was so windy a few hours earlier. Will repeat if i come back again.

Very well-run tourist attraction. Well organized; they did not skimp on having enough staff, They offer boots with some extra traction and those turned out to be quite helpful.
