About this tour

Take to the skies from Girdwood for a 90-minute helicopter adventure over the Chugach Mountains, where rugged peaks and sweeping glacier fields unfold beneath you. This Girdwood Glacier Helicopter Tour includes two landings, giving you time to experience Alaska’s backcountry beyond the aircraft.

Along the way, watch for moose, Dall sheep, mountain goats, and black or brown bears. In summer, blue glacier pools add vivid color to the landscape. The flight departs from Girdwood Airport, and shuttle transportation from Anchorage or Girdwood can be arranged for an additional fee.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 1 review. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Anchorage
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.1.
