Best way to experience Denali
884alisonj, October 2026
The staff was informative and helpful regarding weather-related issues and the need to rebook our flight. I was the last passenger to board, and the only seat available was under a wing, which partially obstructed the views. The seat was also very uncomfortable, with my knees pressed against the seat in front of me, even though I’m only 5’4”. The pilot was fine, although the informative audio recordings were replayed several times. Despite these drawbacks, I would definitely fly with them again and hope to get a better seat next time!

Tour with Talkeetna Air Taxi
E2602UDjerryh, September 2026
Oh my gosh...what a tremendous experience!! We were set up for a tour and the weather didn't cooperate. TAT offered us a refund or to reschedule. We rescheduled for the next day. The trip was awesome and even though weather didn't cooperate 100%, they gave us the absolute best tour that the weather would allow. We enjoyed landing on the glacier and the entire trip was worth it. Our pilot/guide was awesome (Daniel) and every staff member we interacted with was great to work with. They really were top notch! We would all highly recommend Talkeetna Air Taxi for an awesome tour!

Pretty amazing experience. The weather was perfect today for it. The views were spectacular. Landing on the glacier was a memory I'll never forget. It is on the expensive side of things, but I'm very happy I did it.

Great experience, Very enjoyable. A highlight of our trip. Staff was very helpful in rescheduling our trip due to weather issues. Seeing the mountains up close, Glacier landing qas a bonus, add in the facts and history our pilot provided all made this worth it.

kellyrV3870CR, September 2026
One of the most amazing experiences we’ve ever been on! Luke was our guide and extremely knowledgeable and went the extra effort to really give us an unforgettable tour. He took us high and low and pointed out the glaciers and other peaks and we had great views of Denali along w other Alaska scenery! Highlight of our trip. The company was very understanding of our friend being sick and refunded her money!and our shuttle was a few min behind but they really worked w us! Thank you so much
