Alpine Air Alaska - Girdwood Flightseeing

There are few things more spectacular than lifting off in a helicopter from Girdwood and soaring over Alaska's glacier-filled terrain or out across its shimmering waters. Tours are suitable for all ages, and if you're staying in Anchorage you can book a shuttle ride along with your excursion. Choose from the following tours:

30-Minute Helicopter Tour

Get a taste for helicopter flightseeing on a 30-minute trip into the 20-Mile river valley and the heart of glacier country.

Helicopter Glacier Landing

The company’s most popular tour takes you through the Chugach backcountry and over Lake George Glacier, Lake George Valley, Whiteout Glacier—and then land on Colony Glacier, or on top a ridge with a 360-degree panorama of mountains and glaciers.

Prince William Sound Tour

Very similar to the helicopter glacier landing tour, except on your return trip you’ll fly out over Prince William Sound, soaring over the clear waters and rocky fjords, with a chance to spot whales and other marine wildlife.

About Alpine Air Alaska

Alpine Air Alaska, started in Girdwood by Keith Essex in 1991, has been offering helicopter flight-seeing longer than anyone in Southcentral Alaska. As the first to bring Robinson helicopters to Alaska, they have set the standard for aerial tours in the region. The company began with fixed-wing airplanes flying Alaskans to the backcountry, but helicopters offered more flexibility with weather, leading to the switch. Today, Alpine Air Alaska specializes in exclusive scenic flightseeing routes along the stunning Prince William Sound, awe-inspiring glacier landings, and exhilarating glacier dog sledding.
