Great tour - Highly recommend. Although we didn’t get to fly to Denali due to weather the Flying tour over the Talkeetna was amazing. The views were breathtaking. Our pilot did a great job even though there was a lot of turbulence. Would fly with K2 Aviation again.

Flight of a lifetime - Wow! There aren’t words for the views you get of Denali on this flight We were blessed to have a perfectly clear day so we had unbelievable views. Well worth your time and money. Pilot was friendly, knowledgeable and concerned with the safety of the plane. We actually had to wait about 30 minutes to leave while he had maintenance checking a part on the plane. I appreciate all safety precautions . Definitely recommend!

Denali flightseeing - One of the top experiences we had while in Alaska. Wow, to see this amazing mountain and the glaciers from the air is breath taking. You just cannot experience the scale the beauty same way from the ground. Would highly recommend over any land tour. Our K2 pilot did a great job. It was a little cloudy the day we flew, but he was able to get us up to a clear area and it was beautiful. Flew so that we all had great views and pointed out the major and interesting features. We did not do a glacier landing, but if you're really interested in that they offer those flights. I'm happy we choose just the flightseeing; feel we had more time in the air and were able to see more of this amazing area.

Top notch, incredible flight and experience overall! A highlight of our Alaskan adventure. - We had the absolute best experience on this adventure! We were so fortunate to have incredible weather, see all of Denali mountain and to land on the glacier. We were both moved by the grandeur and magnificence of the scenery. The pilot was very capable and explained a lot about what we were flying over and seeing along the way. 10 out of 10 experience! We haven't stopped talking about this flight.

Glacier landing - This was by far our most amazing activity in Alaska for our family. Our pilot was very friendly and experienced and narrated our whole trip. We landed on a glacier and he took family pictures for us. This is an expensive activity but is so worth every dime we paid. Our check in was very easy and all flowed well.

Amazing Flight with Glacier Landing - This was a once-in-a-lifetime experience and was so amazing. It was a great way to see Alaska and the glaciers of Denali from the air. We took the flight that included the glacier landing and I could not recommend this trip any higher. It was an awesome experience. My husband and I took my parents who are in their 70s and our two children ages 11 and 8. The kids loved throwing snowballs made of glacier snow and ice! Our pilot, Doug, was great. He was super informative, funny, and super professional. If you're thinking of doing a flight, just do it. It is worth every penny!
