✈️ Flying in Talkeetna, Alaska 🏔️

One of the most must-do activities in Alaska is definitely taking a small plane flight over the glaciers! 🧊 I previously booked with Talkeetna Air Taxi! Since it was many years ago, I specifically logged back onto their website to check things out. The tour I took back then was the Grand Denali — it cost $450 per person with a glacier landing, and $350 without. The tour runs from May 1 to September 30. The flight covers almost all the surrounding mountains. Here’s the description I reread: *“Capture unparalleled views of Denali on this 1.25-hour flightseeing tour from Talkeetna. Follow the Talkeetna River system through the Susitna Valley into incredible landscapes of glaciers, icefalls, and snow-domed peaks. Explore deeper into the Alaska Range, including the Kahiltna Glacier—the longest glacier in Denali National Park, stretching 45 miles with stunning moraines and ice ridges. Add a glacier landing to your tour.”* ❄️👁️🗨️ I also noticed they offer other tours: 1️⃣ Southside Explorer $225–325 per person | 1–1.5 hours | Available May 1 – September 30 🧭 A powerful introduction to Denali and the Alaska Range. Follow the Talkeetna River through the Susitna Valley into breathtaking glacial and mountain scenery. 2️⃣ Summit Tour $395–495 per person | 1.5–2 hours | March 25 – September 30 🧊 Glacier landing only available May 1 – September 30 ✈️ This one flies extra high—above 20,000 feet—for epic views of Denali. 3️⃣ Winter Explorer $250–350 per person | 1–1.5 hours | October 1 – April 30 ❄️ Glacier landing subject to weather, generally mid-November to March 👥 Minimum 2 people required ℹ️ Fly over river systems of the Susitna Valley, explore glaciers and snow peaks including the Great Gorge of the Ruth Glacier. Listen to the pilot’s commentary on geology and wildlife! 4️⃣ Mountain Voyager $295–395 per person | 1.15–1.45 hours | May 1 – September 30 🗺️ This route doesn’t go behind Denali, but covers both sides of the surrounding mountains. #TravelInspiration #AlaskaTravel #HappyEveryday #EveryMomentCounts #HealingViews #PerfectSummerDestination #FamilyFriendlyTravel
