Add to My Trip
To step foot above the Arctic Circle is a certain kind of thrill, but to spend hours above it with a guide, is even more memorable and enriching. This five-hour trip takes travelers far north to experience the history, native culture, and truly remote environment of the Alaskan Arctic.
Land among the sprawling foothills of the Brooks Range.
The tour starts with a one-hour flight out of Fairbanks . Along the way the pilot narrates, pointing out details of the vast land below. There are active mining sites where miners still hunt for gold. There is the mighty Yukon River Valley, a thriving place home to traditional native peoples and hardworking homesteaders. There are even views of Alaska's less-known, but still stunning Brooks Range. After flying well into the Arctic Circle, the tour's small aircraft lands in the small village of Coldfoot.
From here, guests climb aboard a tour van for a three-hour guided trip along the Dalton Highway. Called the "Haul Road" by Alaskans, dusty trucks lug supplies to the North Slope via this essential transit artery. It is a rugged and isolated place, but the surrounding arctic landscape is also serenely scenic. After pulling back into Coldfoot, the trip concludes with a one-hour return flight to Fairbanks.
Arctic Circle Air Adventure guests spend approximately two hours flying (roundtrip) and three hours on the ground above the Arctic Circle. Guests must check in at the tour operator office at least one hour prior to tour departure.
What to Bring
As with most of Alaska, the weather above the Arctic Circle can be unpredictable. Dress in warm layers and take a rain jacket. Bring a camera, binoculars, bug spray, and snacks. Because the trip goes into remote locations, bring essential medications as well.
Special Instructions
Accurate passenger weight is required for aircraft weight and balance. Guests are limited to 5 to 10 pounds of additional luggage per person. Alaska's Arctic is a true wilderness region. Although rare, weather or mechanical factors can result in multi-hour delays. Medical facilities, communication, and transportation infrastructure are limited. Travelers to this region should be of reasonable health and physical condition.
Transfers & Meeting Points
The Arctic Circle Air Adventure departs from the tour operator terminal on the east ramp of the Fairbanks Airport. The tour operator provides return shuttle rides to Fairbanks hotels for a small fee.

"Outstanding! The plane ride was great, and the scenery was unbelievably awesome. There were too many mountains to count and too many pictures to choose from! The subsistence living in Wiseman was impressive."

I’ve done three Alaska flightseeing tours in my life, and they have all been absolutely amazing. I’ve flown around Denali, across Wrangell St. Elias National Park, and into Lake Clark National Park. Each one blew my mind and was the biggest joy to experience and photograph.
Inside, I highlight the best Alaska flightseeing adventures in the state. There are surely more, but these are accessible and beautiful, allowing you to experience places and views that others won’t.
You won’t regret a single trip and will long to come back for another!
The Best Alaska Flightseeing Tours To Book During Your Vacation
The following are some of the best Alaska flightseeing adventures you can find. They are in no order, so take your time figuring out which is ideal for you!
1. Denali Flightseeing Tour from Talkeetna
I can say personally this is one of the most incredible and mindblowing experiences you can have in Alaska. We got so lucky and enjoyed a clear day as we circumnavigated Denali from the sky.
![flightseeing tours from fairbanks flightseeing in alaska around denali national park](https://explorewithalec.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/denali-flightseeing-tour-alaska-6S7A6804-scaled.jpg)
Each glacier, ridgeline, and jagged peak was better than the next, and it is easily one of the best Alaska flightseeing tours in the state. We took off from Talkeetna (such a cute town) and spent nearly two hours in the mountains, including landing on a glacier.
You can take multiple tours depending on how long you want to be out and what you want to see. The costs go up (as you can imagine) and vary from $300 per person to $450+ with a glacier landing.
![flightseeing tours from fairbanks best alaska flightseeing opportunities is from talkeetna](https://explorewithalec.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/denali-flightseeing-tour-alaska-6S7A6580-scaled.jpg)

3. Helicopter Tour and Dogsledding (Anchorage)
Explore North Anchorage’s breathtaking landscapes on a unique 90-minute helicopter and dogsled adventure. Glide over the Church Range and Knik Glacier in a helicopter before landing on Troublesome Glacier, where a team of 40 sled dogs awaits to whisk you across the icy expanse for an unforgettable Alaskan journey.
As you traverse this stunning terrain, keep your eyes peeled for local wildlife, including moose and mountain goats.
This tour combines the thrill of a scenic helicopter flight with the traditional Alaskan thrill of dogsledding, offering a spectacular way to experience the beauty and wildlife of Alaska.

7. Explore Lake Clark National Park with Bears (from Anchorage)
In 2021, I took a bear-viewing trip to Lake Clark, and it was one of the most amazing things I’ve ever done. We saw around a dozen bears over our trip, and the views coming in and out were just icing on the cake.
Experience the thrill of landing close to these majestic creatures, spending hours watching them roam freely in their natural habitat. The adventure continues with a hike through untouched wilderness, culminating in a picnic lunch on a secluded beach within the National Park.

If you’re already at Denali National Park or in the area, this is the closest tour for you. (Talkeetna is about 3+ hours south of Denali’s entrance.) This option will give you incredible views of the Alaskan range but less time around Denali.
Additionally, if you’re in Fairbanks for the aurora, spend your day enjoying ridiculously beautiful views of the tallest mountain in North America. North Alaskan Tour Company offers winter flights from Fairbanks.
Winter rates are the most expensive at $569 per person. But it’s worth it. You’re at eye level with Denali. It’s easily one of the best Alaska flightseeing options.

Experience the majestic glaciers around Anchorage with ease on the Grand Knik Helicopter Tour. Perfect for those lacking the time or expertise for a strenuous expedition, this tour offers breathtaking aerial views and includes two unique landings: an alpine stop and an ice wall exploration.
Accompanied by a knowledgeable guide, you’ll have the chance to walk on Knik Glacier and possibly spot local wildlife such as mountain goats, Dall sheep, moose, and even bears and wolves in the summer.
With multiple departure times and small group sizes for a more intimate experience, this 2-hour tour with multiple landings is an effortless way to explore nature’s wonders. I highly recommend this as one of the best Alaska flightseeing experiences.
10. Bear Viewing from Juneau
Experience the bears of Chichagof Island through this epic Alaska flightseeing tour. This peak-season bear viewing trip offers an opportunity to observe bears in their natural setting, particularly while they fish beneath a majestic waterfall.

Things to Consider When It Comes to the Best Alaska Flightseeing
As you’re choosing your best Alaska flightseeing adventure, keep in mind that weather can alter or upend your trip. So, being flexible is one of the most important aspects when traveling in the Last Frontier. You might be asked to change your plans if the weather looks iffy.
Putting in some wiggle room before and after your Alaska flightseeing tours might be wise.
Driving time to take-off destination
Everything takes longer in Alaska. First, things are spread apart. Then, you can’t speed because of the danger of wildlife jumping onto the road. For example, Anchorage to Talkeetna doesn’t look too far, but it’s a two-hour-plus drive there.
![flightseeing tours from fairbanks a camper van driving to alaska](https://explorewithalec.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/Best-time-to-visit-alaska-6S7A5102-scaled.jpg)
It’s e xpensive in Alaska . They have a relatively short tourism season, so they have to make most of their money in a short amount of time. So, this means you’ll spend a good chunk of money when you visit Alaska, but there are ways to make it cheaper.
Ways to keep costs down:
- Grocery shop
- Limit your tours
That being said, if you’re going to Alaska, this is not a place to be frugal. Visiting this adventure playground is for those who have saved up and are able to spend money to experience things like these best Alaska flightseeing tours.
Remember that when you visit during summer, your days stretch from the wee morning hours past midnight. So, you have a lot of time to explore and book experiences. However, don’t go overboard and forget to sleep.

Where To Stay Before Your Best Alaska Flightseeing Adventure
This is where most of you will fly into and will have the most lodging options. It should be decently affordable and won’t break your bank account.
It’s a super cute town in between Denali National Park and Anchorage. We spent two nights camping here and loed exploring the town. This is one of the best places to stay before hopping on one of the best Alaska flightseeing tours around Denali.
16 things to do in Talkeetna
North of Anchorage, this is a good middle ground if you plan to explore Talkeetna or the Mantanuska Glacier .
It is the furthest northern city in Alaska, with a sizeable population (and an international airport). There’s not much to do in the immediate area, but you’ll be close to Denali National Park and any adventures toward the Arctic Circle.
A small town south of Anchorage and home to Alyeska Resort . If you’re looking to be far from the hustle and bustle of Alaska’s largest city, this is an excellent place to stay.

FAQ: Flightseeing in Alaska
Is flightseeing in alaska worth it.
Absolutely! Flightseeing in Alaska ranks as an unforgettable and unique experience, offering breathtaking views that make it a standout activity. It’s accessible to people of all ages, making it a must-do for anyone visiting the state.
Where is the best place to fly into Alaska?
The best place to fly into Alaska for most travelers is Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport (ANC), due to its accessibility and proximity to major Alaskan attractions. It serves as a central hub, making it an ideal starting point for exploring the state’s vast landscapes and natural beauty.
![flightseeing tours from fairbanks](https://explorewithalec.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/Photos-of-Alaska-6S7A7158-scaled.jpg)
Is a helicopter tour in Alaska worth it?
The Alaska Helicopter Tours comes highly recommended for those visiting Alaska and ranks as a top pick for an unforgettable adventure. Offering a spectacular blend of diverse landscapes, this tour promises an array of sights that are sure to impress any traveler.
With skilled pilots who excel in making the tour both fun and educational by spotting and identifying local wildlife, it’s an experience that stands out. This tour is a must-do for an authentic Alaskan experience.
What is the best time for Denali Flightseeing?
For an optimal Denali flightseeing experience, it’s recommended to schedule your tour from late May to early September, when weather conditions are most favorable.
This unique aerial journey provides an unparalleled perspective on the untouched magnificence and vastness of Denali National Park and its adjacent terrains, making it a memorable adventure for all who visit.
Are Flightseeing Tours safe?
Alaska flightseeing tours are quite safe, but that doesn’t mean that accidents don’t happen. Almost all airline fatalities happen in smaller planes (not commercial jetliners), so the risk is always there. However, with the number of flights that happen each day in Alaska, it’s safe from a percentage viewpoint.
Is it better to fly into Fairbanks or Anchorage?
The majority of people fly into Anchorage as the Kenai Peninsula is easier to navigate and it’s closer to more tourist destinations. Fairbanks is great for visiting in the winter for Northern Lights or if you want to get to Denali National Park or other northern areas quicker.
![flightseeing tours from fairbanks the alaskan range from a flightseeing trip in denali national park](https://explorewithalec.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/denali-flightseeing-tour-alaska-6S7A6496-scaled.jpg)
Why is Denali so hard to see?
As low-pressure systems travel north from the Gulf of Alaska, the moist, cold air they carry encounters the mountain ranges and rises, leading to condensation. This process forms clouds and precipitation within the mountains, frequently obscuring the view of Denali.
TL;DR: The Mountains create their own weather and because it’s so dang tall, the clouds get in the way.
Can I see the northern lights in Denali?
Denali offers an exceptional setting for observing the aurora due to its far northern latitude and the minimal light pollution in the area.
Light pollution, which stems from the overuse of artificial light in towns, cities, and developed regions, tends to obscure the natural darkness of the environment, making places like Denali ideal for clear, unobstructed views of the night sky.
Final Thoughts – Best Alaska Flightseeing
Alaska offers some of the world’s most breathtaking and awe-inspiring flightseeing tours. From soaring over glaciers and fjords to witnessing wildlife in their natural habitat, these tours provide an unforgettable experience that will leave you with memories to last a lifetime.
Whether you’re a first-time visitor or a seasoned traveler, exploring Alaska from above is a truly unique and exhilarating way to appreciate the beauty of this rugged and remote wilderness.
So book your ticket, buckle up, and get ready for an adventure like no other on one of the best Alaska flightseeing tours available.

Description
Laura, Canada: We had a wonderful time exploring Alaska's most northern region. Our trip started at the Fairbanks Airport where our family of five was flown up to Fort Yukon, located above the Arctic Circle. The views from the plane were breathtaking and the pilot was very informative during the entire flight. We explored the village of Fort Yukon where we learned how people live away from big cities. We stopped at the Yukon River and got some great pictures. So very glad we joined this trip.

Fairbanks Day Trips & Arctic Tours
Home » Tours » City-Based Day Tours » Fairbanks
Fairbanks is Alaska’s second largest city, combining modern amenities and technology with a frontier atmosphere. Recognized as the “gateway to the Arctic,” Fairbanks has a long and colorful history dating back to the Alaska Gold Rush of the late 1800s and early 1900s. The historic downtown corridor, on the banks of the Chena River, offers a great educational opportunity to learn about life in Alaska’s great interior at the Morris Thompson Center. The Trans-Alaska oil pipeline, a remarkable engineering feat bringing Arctic oil to the port of Valdez, is located just outside of Fairbanks and can be seen on a guided city tour. Fairbanks area tour options range from crossing the Arctic Circle, experiencing Iñupiaq culture, touring a working placer gold mine, or a riverboat tour aboard a classic sternwheeler.
