Anchorage · DENALI FLIGHTSEEING & TALKEETNA TOURS
7 reviewed
Talkeetna is the launch pad for the classic flight around Denali, the highest peak in North America, with a landing on a glacier if the weather holds. These are the best Denali flightseeing tours, with route, air time, whether you set down on the ice, and how the glacier landing changes the price.

Talkeetna Denali flight with a real glacier landing. Window seats, headset narration, and Ruth Glacier overboots in a small group.
“The flight was awesome! Well worth the price. The pilot was professional and knowledgeable about Denali and the glaciers. He did a great job flying the aircraft and as a pilot myself, I was impressed with the whole experience including the folks in the office and on the ramp. The flight around the mountains and around the sunlit clouds is breathtaking. Well done”
Paddle Byers Lake in Denali State Park with a small guided group, stable kayaks, wildlife spotting, and possible Denali reflections.
“Brian, our guide was by far the best part about this. So knowledgeable about Alaska and you could really tell he had such an appreciation for the land here. Gave great recommendations about different areas, places to go, things to do, he made it worth it. On our tour we saw some wildlife but was amazing to see red salmon coming in to spawn. Even on a rainy cloudy day, it was fun. On a clear day you can get the reflection of Denali on Byers Lake.”
Zipline above the Susitna River Valley in Talkeetna for a 3-hour Denali adventure with bridges, rappel, and big views.
“Great time with knowledge leaders. There is a wait time between each zip line, as you wait for the whole group to go then you do the next line.”
Anchorage to Denali and Kenai Fjords in 5 days, with Talkeetna charm and big wildlife, plus optional rafting or glacier cruises.
“Had an excellent 5 day tour of Alaska with our guide Andrew! He was extremely knowledgeable and very friendly. He treated everyone very nicely and our 11 and 7 year old grandkids loved him and how he interacted with them. Andrew was very accommodating to our requests and always had good suggestions of activities and places to visit or eat. Andrew was great at spotting game during our Denali bus trip. I highly recommend BrushBuck tours and especially Andrew as a guide. Will definitely consider them for an Africa trip when the girls are older.”
