    Perfect in every way

    Absolutely the best experience of my life. Flying over the mountains was an absolute dream. We got to meet the dogs and play with them and learn about their life at camp and then go for a short sled ride. We then did the additional glacier landing and had the whole place to ourselves. Walking on a glacier, drinking the water and learning about it was just so special. This trip was the highlight of our vacation

    This experience is awesome.

    Flying a helicopter onto a glacier that has 280 big, happy, noisy dogs will surely be one of the most memorable things I ever do. Luke our helicopter pilot was kind, reassuring, informative and naturally very competent. Our musher Tenley Feinberg was an absolute joy. Her passion for her dogs and knowledge of each one's personality warms the heart. Witnessing her interact with them as they worked was fascinating. The entire team on this tour is highly professional and clearly dedicated to providing an unforgettable day. It's a dog lovers dream.

    The Highlight of our Alaska Trip

    We booked the Juneau Helicopter, Dog Sledding, and Glacier Landing Adventure for our family of five. Unfortunately, my oldest daughter fractured her tibial plateau just one week before our cruise, and we weren't sure if we'd be able to participate. The team was wonderful to work with throughout the process, helping us navigate the changes and making things as smooth as possible. In the end, I was able to go with my youngest daughter, and we're so grateful we did. It was our first time ever flying in a helicopter, and the entire experience was unforgettable. We loved learning about the sled dogs, their training, and the important role they play. It was also fascinating to hear how the staff live and work on the glacier during the season. The highlight for me was at the end of the tour when our pilot, Tim, landed on the glacier. Seeing it up close was absolutely incredible. Tim did an excellent job sharing his knowledge, answering questions, and even helping us capture some great photos. He made the experience even more memorable. A few tips for future guests: dress warmly, even if it's comfortable in town. It was quite cold on the glacier. Also, the staff explained that roughly 40% of tours are canceled due to weather. That's completely beyond their control, but it's helpful to know ahead of time so you can set expectations and be flexible. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly, professional, and helpful. We felt incredibly fortunate to have had this experience, and it was truly one of the highlights of our Alaska trip. Highly recommend!

    Juneau Helicopter and Dogsledding with Added Glacier Landing: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Juneau.

    How much does Juneau Helicopter and Dogsledding with Added Glacier Landing cost?

    +

    Prices start at $947 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Juneau usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Juneau Helicopter and Dogsledding with Added Glacier Landing take?

    +

    Plan for about 3.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Juneau is not rushed.

    Is Juneau Helicopter and Dogsledding with Added Glacier Landing worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 121 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Juneau, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Juneau Helicopter and Dogsledding with Added Glacier Landing?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Juneau Helicopter and Dogsledding with Added Glacier Landing suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Juneau Helicopter and Dogsledding with Added Glacier Landing?

    +

    Around 42 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Juneau can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Juneau and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Juneau Helicopter and Dogsledding with Added Glacier Landing start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Juneau within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Juneau?

    +

    Juneau runs Mendenhall Glacier trips, whale watching in Auke Bay, helicopter glacier landings with dog sledding, and rainforest hikes. Most tours are timed to cruise ship windows, so we weight clear duration and pickup detail. On Outty we rank every Juneau experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Juneau Wildlife Whale Watching, Juneau Wildlife Whale Watching & Mendenhall Glacier, Whales and Wilderness Exploration. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Juneau?

    +

    May to September, peaking for humpbacks in June and July. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Juneau?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What happens to Juneau Helicopter and Dogsledding with Added Glacier Landing if the weather is bad?

    +

    It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Juneau. Standard cancellation terms apply.

    What do travelers say about Juneau Helicopter and Dogsledding with Added Glacier Landing?

    +

    Across 121 reviews averaging 4.8 out of 5, recurring themes include photo opportunities, organization, knowledge and storytelling. The views and photo stops come up again and again.
