Creator's Key Takeaways

That helicopter tour that took us to Mendenhall Glacier was fantastic. Once in a lifetime. If you have an opportunity to do that, you should do it.

We are a tender today, so Oceania doesn't have rights, I guess, to park at the dock, you could say.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓When tendering, you have to grab a ticket for your tender and wait for your number to be called; it is a process that takes a little longer.

✓Be prepared for a strenuous hike if doing a glacier excursion; it can be more rigorous than expected.

YouTube Video Description↓

Would YOU land on a glacier?! 🚁 We took a helicopter high above Juneau, touched down on an Alaska glacier, and honestly… it might be the most incredible thing we've ever done. We're Judy & Marc, and this was one of the most unforgettable days of our Alaska cruise on the Oceania Riviera. In this video we take you along for the whole experience — the helicopter flight over the mountains, the views that left us speechless, and what it actually feels like to stand on a glacier in the middle of Alaska. ❄️ If an Alaska helicopter glacier landing is on your bucket list (or wasn't until now 😉), this one's for you. ▶️ Subscribe and hit the 🔔 — there's so much more Alaska coming! ✅ Want to join one of our group cruises? https://www.twinpalmsworldtravel.com/grouptravel 🛳️Looking to book a cruise: Fill out my quick travel form here: https://www.twinpalmsworldtravel.com/cruise-travel 📱 Prefer to text?
