Alaska Frontier

Helicopter Tour

The 60-minute tour departs from our Chugach Adventure Base and takes you over the Knik River & Glacier through the Great Gorge towards Whiteout Glacier, Colony Glacier, and Lake George. Land on the ancient hard ice next to the massive crevasses and big blue melt pools, bring your water bottle, and drink some of the cleanest water on earth! We almost always see moose, mountain goats, bands of Dall sheep, and often bears. **WINTER TOURS** please note that this tour in some winter months may not land directly on top of the glacier due to snow cover and safety issues, landing may be on the side next to incredible deep blue ice formations (an equally spectacular experience)

Brewery Tour

Make your way to the meeting point in downtown Anchorage in the afternoon and meet your tour “Hoperator,” who will give you an informative overview of Alaska’s beer culture from a local’s perspective before driving you to your first of three included tasting tours. Get your taste buds ready for Alaska’s best brews as you visit pioneering breweries and trendy taprooms. In all, you’ll visit 3 of the best breweries in Anchorage. Listen as your guide tells you about the history of Alaskan beers, the founding brewery fathers, and what makes Alaska’s beer culture stand out. Take in the awe-inspiring scenery of Anchorage’s dramatic skyline, with soaring mountains as the natural backdrop. Stop into Anchorage’s oldest brewery and taste because it was medaled at the World Beer Cup. Enjoy the chef’s selection of appetizers as you taste the beers. Sip on some hoppy goodness at a newcomer to Alaska’s beer scene. Then finish at one of the fastest-growing breweries in the state. By the end of the tour, you’ll have a good idea of what makes Alaskan beer great, and what makes Anchorage such an appealing city.
