View glaciers, ocean, and mountains from the air with Alaska Helicopter Tours!
Alaska Helicopters is not only a local tourism business, it is a gateway for tourists to encounter parts of the Alaskan wilderness that, prior to air travel, was only enjoyed through grueling trek or via story telling and imagination.
As of this Spring, Alaska Helicopters has been running flight tours from Seward to Bear Glacier where guests can view the numerous frosty blue icebergs floating within the lagoon and land on the beach neighboring the sprawling glacial mass in Kenai Fjords National Park.
Additionally, they give clients the opportunity to try dogsledding with a superstar team of Iditarod winning canines atop a snowfield on a glacier. Lastly, their alpine landing offers spectacular views of Resurrection Bay, the Harding Icefield, and the surrounding mountain range.
As to whether one should book a summer or winter glacier viewing trip, the natural beauty does not waver; it only evolves as glaciers expand and contract in their resting place.
“Glacier helicopter tours are especially magical in any season, but the experience varies significantly. So it’s not about which season is better, it’s about which kind of glacier experience calls to you.” (blog)
Melt pools and glacial water trickle in the sun on summer tours while, in winter, deep blue ice caverns and golden hour sun offer tourists a taste of the last frontier’s backcountry bliss. Either way, visitors can’t go wrong any season and Alaska Helicopter’s experienced pilots can guide and educate clients on the area, its history, and its environmental changes.
Matching tourism with sustainability is so essential in this day in age and the people at Alaska Helicopters understand this. That's why they have made a commitment to sustainability by partnering with carbonfund.org to help offset their carbon footprint. Customers have the option to donate to the carbon fund upon booking to help replant forests and make investments in alternate energy sources.
The Seward Chamber of Commerce wants to thank Alaska Helicopter Tours for their generous sponsorship to our annual, highly anticipated firework display which takes place at 12:05AM on July 4th in the harbor. Thanks to your support, we are able to make the fun things happen!
