Which helicopter ride in Juneau is the best?

We took the "Pilot's Choice" and were very pleased. Our pilot, Jamil, was very personable and informative about the glaciers we flew over and landed on. Our weather was poor, the flight ceiling was just barely their minimums and it was misty rain much of the time and we stil enjoyed it! Plan on doing it again next time.

I highly recommend doing a heli tour which includes the dog sledding on the glacier. We had a ball!!! A truly once in a life time experience (for those of us who don't live in Alaska <G>). Ours was provided by Temesco Helicopter.

We took the helicopter that landed on the Mendenhall Glacier. This was in 1986 and our kids are STILL talking about it!
