Mush an Iditarod dogsled team on summer snow, meet the dogs, and fly to glacier and shoreline viewpoints on a Seward adventure.

About this tour

Trade summer trails for snow on a Seward helicopter dogsled adventure with an Iditarod team. At the high-elevation dog camp, take the runners and mush your own team across real snow, or settle onto the sled while experienced mushers guide the dogs. After the ride, meet the canine athletes and take photos with your favorites.

Your helicopter journey adds a dramatic view of glacier country, with a roughly 30-minute round-trip flight and two landings. One stop brings you to a remote shoreline where you can admire glaciers and icebergs; the other gives you more time to take in the landscape. The full experience lasts about two hours, including roughly an hour with the dogsled team and about 30 minutes at an additional landing. Waterproof overboots are provided, while warm layers and a waterproof outer shell are recommended for changeable mountain weather.

See Seward from snow level and sky level on this memorable helicopter dogsled tour. Book your Seward helicopter dogsled tour and meet the dogs behind the adventure.

How this score is calculated

This tour scores 5.00 on Viator and 4.27 on GetYourGuide. Ratings on these sites cluster near the top of the 5-star scale, so we compare each one with all other ratings on the same site before combining them.

How the score works and rating distribution in Seward
  • 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 7.2.
