Prince William Sound Tour - Most popular!

This 1.5 hour tour is similar to the one hour Glacier Landing, with an added journey over Prince William Sound. Viewing tidal glaciers is impressive. These curtains of ice lose huge slabs into the ocean, and give the surfing seals a wave to ride! You can also spot otters and possibly whales from the air. Tour time is 90 minutes.

All trips listed above are available year-round and depart 6 times daily. Our fleet consists of three Robinson R-44 Helicopters, 3 guest maximum and one Eurocopter AStar 350, 5 guest maximum. This breathtaking helicopter flight will amaze you with the panoramic views through the surrounding windows.
