Overview

The definitive tour of Denali that covers more of the Alaska Range than any other tour available.  Follow the river systems of Talkeetna across the Susitna Valley into an incredible landscape of icefalls, glaciers and snowy peaks.  Explore deeper into the Alaska range including the Kahiltna Glacier, the longest in Denali National Park, stretching 45 mile with stunning ridges of earth and ice.  You will cross over the Alaska Range and witness the arctic alpine tundra of the North side of Denali National Park's remote interior.  Add a glacier landing onto your flightseeing tour for an experience of a lifetime (this adds 30 minutes to your trip time).

We booked this tour independently after being unable to book a flightseeing excursion with the land/cruise trip by Celebrity Cruises. We easily found the small Talkeetna Airport. We walked to it from the small town of Takeenta in less than 10 mins. The entire was EXCELLENT! The pilot was very experienced (+20 yrs in Alaska), and we had an easy take-off and landing. He pointed out all of the amazing sights. The views were breathtaking! We were a party of four, including 2 elementary aged children. It was our first time in a small plane. We would all highly recommend this tour and this company.

We debated cancelling this excursion as we had done so much flying already, but I am SO glad we didn't! The first day we were not able to go as the weather wasn't clear, but they rescheduled us to the next day and it was perfect! Wow, what a fabulous way to see Denali. Gorgeous views the entire route. Not a cloud in the sky. We landed on the glacier and had the opportunity to get out and walk around and take some pics. Wow, what an awesome experience!

Absolutely breathtaking views. The scale is just something that has to be seen to be believed. The flight was smooth and professionally run, and the pilot was a great guide. 100% would recommend again.

This is a truly amazing bucket list experience. Up in a small 12 seater buzzing around the denali range like you are taking intro shots for a lord of the rings movie. The pilot said we got within about 500ft of some of the peaks but it felt like you could reach out and touch them at times. We also paid the extra to land on a feeder glacier for the Ruth Glacier flow and it was expensive but well worth it. Following the Glacier down on the way back was also an amazing and educational experience. We had a clear day for this trip which I am told is unusual, so we were very lucky.
