Overview

With this incredible tour, you’ll start with a helicopter flight over the ancient glaciers of the 1,500-square-mile Juneau Icefield. After seeing this marvel of Mother Nature from above, you’ll land at a remote glacier camp for yet another ride on the wild side: zooming across the Alaskan tundra—high, rugged mountains surrounding you—pulled by a rambunctious group of Alaskan huskies. It’s truly an only-in-Alaska experience.

  • Multiple pick-up locations available in Juneau or hassle-free transport
  • Shuttles operate one hour before flight time for cruise ship passengers
  • While dogsledding, choose between riding the runners or sitting back and relaxing
