Description

Soar above the blue crevassed face of a 3,000 ft. thick glacier, and view some of Alaska’s most rugged mountain peaks on this 2½ to 3 hour Prince William Sound Glacier Tour from Anchorage with Rust’s Flying Service.

Pristine Prince William Sound is a magnificent region with 15,000 square miles of fjords and inlets, scores of tidewater glaciers, and is a rich cold-water marine life habitat.

Depart from Lake Hood, the world’s largest and busiest floatplane base, and fly east over the Chugach Mountain Range, “hanging” glaciers and alpine valleys into another world: Prince William Sound. The extended tour includes Columbia Glacier, Prince William Sound’s largest tidewater glacier, and possibly a swing by Glacier Island to view sea lions sunning themselves on the rocky coastline. Make a photo stop landing at a secluded cove before returning to Anchorage.

Flight route can vary according to weather. ​Your pilot will advise as to the best route for the best flightseeing depending on the conditions on your day of flight.
