    With a perfect rating across hundreds of reviews, this helicopter tour operation delivers consistently exceptional glacier experiences. Guests rave about the Knik glacier flights with glacier landings that allow 30 minutes to explore and photograph the stunning blue ice. The pilots—particularly Evan, Logan, and Christine—receive enthusiastic praise for their smooth flying, knowledge of the terrain, and willingness to go the extra mile, like landing on icebergs or flying through canyons to spot wildlife. The staff, especially Carly and Caroline, make everyone feel comfortable and handle logistics seamlessly, including round-trip transport. The experience works beautifully for everything from standard sightseeing to special occasions like wedding elopements. Travelers appreciate the excellent communication, particularly regarding weather conditions, and note that the flights are surprisingly smooth even for those worried about motion sickness. Multiple international visitors specifically mention how welcoming and accommodating the team is. This consistently ranks as a top Alaska adventure and a genuine once-in-a-lifetime experience that's worth every penny.

    Yesterday, I went on a flight with Outbound and WHAT an incredible time. I work in the area and spend a lot of time in the Knik River Valley but seeing it from above was incredible. We saw wildlife, drank glacial water, and took in the beautiful fall colors. Christine was a wonderful pilot-probably the smoothest helicopter ride I've ever been on- and she shared lots of info about the area that I didn't know. Outbound also shares property with an ATV company and there are cabins nearby you can stay in. If you want an action packed couple days, book with both of them, but don't skip out on the view from above. I will be back!
