Glacier City Snowmobile Tours

We did the Blue Ice Glacier Snowmobile Tour in February, and as a born and raised Alaskan, I’m honestly sad I didn’t do this sooner! It was such a fun and unforgettable experience — worth every cent. We got to see parts of the glacier that you’d never be able to reach otherwise, and it was absolutely stunning. I don’t own a snowmachine, so this was an awesome way to get out and explore. The guides were fantastic — friendly, helpful, and clearly focused on making sure everyone had a great time. Super happy with the entire experience and can’t wait to go again!

We booked the glacier tour on our vacation to Alaska this spring. Unfortunately, they weren't experiencing much snow this year and we were unable to do that tour. We went ahead and opted for the scenic tour since we were all excited to ride a snowmobile for our first time ever. Our experience was great. We loved the snowmobiles, had a fun time on the path, had guides that made sure we were having a fun time and they even changed things up so that the slower people were able to go the speed they wanted, but everyone wasn't forced to go that slow. Our teens had an awesome time and got in some thrills on the path while checking out the great mountain views. We rode for some time, stopped for some reindeer sausage and rode briefly again before heading out. I would have liked a shorter break to eat and a little more ride time, but the reindeer sausage was tasty and we had a great day. Like others who have been on the tour we did just go in circles on a path on some private property. (Where we live people regularly do this with four wheelers on dirt paths through the woods, so it was a similar experience with a different machine through the snow and amazing views.) We didn't really know what to expect , but we imagined we'd be going out more into the wilderness to ride, rather than just a track. That's probably unrealistic! Who knows. Even so, we would do it again and recommend it to anyone visiting the area.
