Spectacular Views - Hands down one of the most epic adventures we’ve done! We weren’t feeling super optimistic since clouds were hiding Denali all morning, but once we broke through the clouds, the views were spectacular! Luke got us so close to the mountain I felt like I could literally reach out and touch it! Truly an experience of a lifetime!

Talkeetna Air - The pilot was fantastic at narrating and did his best to avoid air bumps. The views were amazing. My favorite was landing and taking off from the glacier. Once in a lifetime experience!

Denali Magic - The experience was fantastic. The pilot flew us around the mountain ranges pointing out many lovely sites. We couldn't do the glacier landing due to bad weather though

Most beautiful flightseeing ever! - Priceless!!! I was so skeptical of small planes and really didn’t want to take an air taxi over the glaciers but that was my husband’s wish for his birthday and I decided to go. When I saw the pilot (captain Luke) I was so nervous, but he put me at ease and this was the best trip of my life!! I assure you Talkeetna Air Taxi is a very safe, professional and amazing company! We will do it again for sure! The most unbelievable views all the way!!!

Fantastic Experience!! - From our first contact by phone to the touchdown after the flight, every person we encountered at TAT was gracious, friendly, professional, informative, and thorough. The pilot was knowledgeable and shared details throughout the flight. I can’t imagine a better experience! Would do this again and will definitely recommend TAT to anyone who asks.

Great Moment on top of Denali and a perfect glacier landing... - Great experience, once in a lifetime, and leaves you wanting to do it again. The whole Trip was mesmerizing, photographic, scenic and thoroughly enjoyable. It was beyond expectations and we thoroughly enjoyed each and every moment of the Trip.There was not even one moment, where we could say we were off track and the Trip was boring. The Pilot was very experienced, knowledgeable and his commentary was stunning. The Glacier Landing was the Pinnacle moment and the views were stunning. The whole Trip was comfortable, safe and we were picked and dropped off at the Hotel.All the necessary gear was provided and clear safety instructions given. The whole experience was memorable and our photos can tell the whole story.Even the skies cleared to some extent, making the Trip possible. We had been in Alaska for 13 days already and most of the days were cloudy.However, today the skies cleared and what we saw was over the top, just pure pleasure....

Anniversary Celebration - This was a fabulous experience! We are celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary in Alaska, and chose this as our celebration excursion. Loved every minute of it. Seeing the mountain range up close was breathtaking. Landing on the glacier, and realizing the size and grandeur of these mountains was incredulous. Thanks for a fantastic experience!

Great Alaskan Holidays Strongly Recommends a Flightseeing Tour with Talkeetna Air Taxi. - We cannot recommend a Mt. McKinley flightseeing tour with Talkeetna Air Taxi strongly enough. If you're touring Alaska, this is a 'must-do' activity. Truly one of the best things I've ever done in my life. It's a magical place, and the TAT staff and pilots are the very best you'll find. I very, very highly recommend Talkeetna Air Taxi.

Incredible experience and views. Add this to your Alaska bucket list. - This was a last minute decision and so glad we did it. Cory was super helpful and the entire staff was incredibly friendly. Our pilot Tim was great, offering just the right amount of narration and a great playlist. The views were spectacular and the glacier landing was very cool. All and all I would highly recommend this company and this experience.

Worth every penny! - Worth every penny! Outside of major life events this is a highlight of our life experiences. Asa was a great pilot along with Danielle (pilot in training) and Corey was very friendly and helpful in the office. We wanted to go on another flight immediately. 😁
