This was the highlight of our trip to Alaska!! So worth it. The helicopter tour to the top of the glacier was great! The views were absolutely stunning. The dog sledding was so much fun. The pups are so sweet and playful. We got lucky with a sunny day, so it definitely was not as cold as anticipated. I would definitely recommend Alaska Shore Excursions to anyone visiting Alaska. Professionally run and so worth it!!
