Anchorage Helicopter and Glacier Dogsled Tour
Description
Experience the ultimate Alaskan adventure in this incredible Anchorage sled dog tour! Participate in Alaska's iconic sport, explore the rugged wilderness, and admire snow-covered glaciers and awe-inspiring peaks from the comfort of a helicopter. Revel in the majestic beauty of Alaska as you embark on this once-in-a-lifetime adventure!
Your journey starts with a sightseeing flight where you'll be able to take in the stunning beauty of the Alaska wilderness, the Chugach Range, Lake George, and other awe-inspiring sights. Once you arrive at the Knik Glacier, you'll get to select your Anchorage dog sled team and either take a seat on the sled or try your hand at mushing with the help of experienced mushers. After that, you can relax and spend some quality time with these incredible canine athletes before jumping back in the helicopter and enjoying another stunning scenic flight on your way to the Knik River Lodge.
Dog mushing is the Alaskan sport and a must-do activity for anyone who wants to have an unforgettable experience while also enjoying stunning aerial views. This could easily be the highlight of your Alaskan adventure, and thanks to Knik Glacier's excellent location, this Anchorage sled dog tour is rarely canceled due to inclement weather, unlike the helicopter and dog sled tours in Juneau and Skagway.
This tour does not include transportation. If you will need transportation to the helicopter base, please select this option.

Why don’t I see any tours available for my travel dates?
If you’ve entered your travel date and group size and do not see any tours available, the tours are most likely sold out or not operating that day. If the specific helicopter tour you wanted is missing from the results, that usually means it is not available for your selected date, time, or group size.
Helicopter tours are among the most popular Alaska shore excursions and can sell out months in advance, especially during peak cruise season. If you’re visiting by cruise ship, many tours also require a 45–60 minute buffer to ensure you make it to and from your ship on time — so departures too close to your arrival or all-aboard time won’t appear. For the best chance of securing your preferred tour, date, and departure time, we recommend booking as soon as your travel itinerary is confirmed.
Our live availability calendar is the most accurate and up-to-date source for open departures. If no helicopter options appear after you enter your details, we recommend checking other available tour types for your port or adjusting your group size if your party can split across separate departures or activities.
