Fly over Juneau Icefield’s glaciers, then land at a remote camp for a dogsled ride with Alaskan huskies among snowy peaks.

About this tour

See Alaska from the air, then trade the helicopter’s sweeping views for the excitement of a dogsled ride on a remote glacier. This Juneau Helicopter and Dogsledding Experience pairs a flight over the glaciers of Juneau Icefield with time at a glacier camp surrounded by snowfields and towering mountains.

After meeting your Coastal Helicopters representative beneath the Goldbelt Tram, board a round-trip helicopter flight across the icefield. At the remote camp, meet the dog musher and experience a ride pulled by Alaskan huskies. The tour lasts about three hours and includes transportation to and from the facilities, along with boots and raincoats if needed. Dress warmly in layers and wear rubber-soled shoes; bring your camera, but leave bags behind, as they can be stored at the tour office.

Accurate passenger weights and pickup details are required when booking, and seating for groups in the same helicopter depends on weight and balance. Weather can affect departures, with an alternative time or full refund offered if poor conditions cancel the tour. Book this Juneau Helicopter and Dogsledding Experience for a memorable journey from glacier views to husky-powered adventure.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. GetYourGuide rates it 4.79 from 26 reviews. We place that rating among all GetYourGuide 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 Juneau
  • 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 7.8. Top 35% in Juneau means it ranks in the top 35% of tours in Juneau by this score.
