Shore Excursions - Glaciers

[TxSweetThang]

I am currently researching cruises for next July for myself, husband and another couple.  One of the "wants to do" by the husband of the other couple is to actually go and stand on a glacier.  Not just look at it from a distance.

 

Does anyone know of any ShoreEx's that might do that and in what port?

In the past, there have been helicopter flights in Juneau that will land you on a glacier...you get out and walk around.

Use goggle to find the website for Temsco Helicopters.  They offer glacier trips out of both Juneau and Skagway.

Just remember that any glacier landing is very weather dependent so have a plan B for any day that you have a helicopter tour.
