Flightseeing Tours in Juneau

Taku Glacier Lodge

Fly in a nostalgic floatplane over five breathtaking glaciers to an authentic wilderness lodge for a king salmon feast. Your adventure begins the moment you take off from the waterfront near your ship’s berth. Enjoy a narrated flight from a window seat which provides an unrestricted view of the five magnificent glaciers of the Juneau Icefield. The plane will land on the Taku River by the historic Taku Lodge built in 1923. As you enjoy your hearty all-you-can-eat barbeque salmon meal, your host will entertain you with stories of characters from the early days. Before your flight back to Juneau, there will be time to stroll on the trails of the old-growth forest or relax and soak in the serenity of a place scarcely touched by time.

Mendenhall Glacier by Helicopter & Guided Walk

Thriving rain forests, alpine ridges, and mountain peaks create a dramatic setting for the awe-inspiring Mendenhall Glacier. Your flight takes you over the glacier itself; the helicopter’s perspective giving you an eagle’s eye view of ice spires, deep blue crevasses and meltwater pools. Descending towards our landing site, you’ll fly past the Mendenhall Towers -- rock sentinels that soar to nearly 7,000 feet! A gentle landing brings you to the ice itself, where you’ll explore the glacier’s surface with our highly experienced, expert guides.
