What an awesome experience! I highly recommend this for anyone. My husband, son and I totally enjoyed this tour. Our pilot Jeff was great and gave us an epic ride with history of the glaciers, geography of our location and an overall excellent adventure. I liked seeing the skiers and the snow mobiles on the ski runs beneath us. Will do again sometime in the future.

My husband and I splurged and took the luxury cruise to Victoria and we were treated like royalty! The service, food and drinks were amazing. We spent a fun 6 hours in Victoria on our own and then flew back to Vancouver in a sea plane. I thought I would be scared, but the flight was really cool and the landing was like we landed on a marshmallow. I would highly recommend this company.

We went for a tour on a beautiful sunny day. Me and my Dad got gift certificates for Christmas and saved them until spring. It was an amazing trip. A reminder of how lucky we are to live in this great place.

What an incredible experience!!! My girlfriend had mentioned wanting to do the glacier tour as a bucket list idea for a while, so naturally it was a perfect setting to propose to her. Hannah was our pilot and I can't praise her enough for going above and beyond to make an incredible experience that much better! The tour itself is worth every penny and we're already planning on doing it again in the future! Thanks 49 North!!

Want to see Whistler's wilderness without having to huff up any mountains? Take a comfortable helicopter ride over some of British Columbia's most stunning glaciers and snowcapped peaks to orient yourself with Whistler, or amp up the joy ride with longer aerial explorations of Whistler and Blackcomb mountains and Garibaldi Provincial Park. If the weather permits, you will even touch down on Rainbow Glacier for a short stroll, where the scenery might take your breath away after all.

Inclusions: GST (Goods and Services Tax)

The Helicopter felt very safe and our pilot Andrew was fantastic. Such a short yet incredible trip and the Rainbow Glacier was stunning. Professional and courteous, couldn't recommend highly enough.
