Overview

PRIVATE TOUR - LUNCH INCLUDED
Enjoy a scenic helicopter tour as the helicopter zips you over the gorgeous valley to the Knik Glacier, where you will land next to a gigantic crevasse. Your skilled climbing guide will teach you about the surrounding glacier structures as you get harnessed up for your tour. Not only will you have 4 hours to climb, but you will also have opportunity to explore the Knik Glacier and melt pools. We do recommend you bring layered clothing, a hat, sunscreen, a neck gaiter for your comfort and of course sunglasses for those bright summer days!

Sorting, ranking, and search results

Activity name

Cool Alaska wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Alaska over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
