When to Go
Choosing the best time for your helicopter tour depends on the Alaskan experience you’re seeking. Summer months offer longer daylight hours, ideal for viewing the vibrant landscapes of the Mat-Su Valley. Winter provides a chance to witness the serene beauty of snow-covered peaks and frozen lakes. Always check the NOAA weather forecasts before planning your trip to ensure the best conditions.
What to Wear
Alaska’s climate requires practical clothing choices. Dress in layers to adapt to changing temperatures, especially when flying over glaciers like Knik and Matanuska. A waterproof outer layer is essential to protect against wind and potential rain. Warm gloves and hats are recommended, particularly in winter months. For more specific advice, consult Travel Alaska for seasonal packing lists.

Photography Tips
Capturing Alaska’s beauty requires preparation. Use a camera with a fast shutter speed to handle movement from the helicopter.
