I hope you all enjoy the video! I really enjoyed this experience and it was the highlight of my Alaskan cruise. If you haven't seen my full documentary please make sure to check it out in the description above. Also if you like to support the channel please check the description as I'm a one man army!

Curious how your experience has influenced, if at all, your actions regarding climate change. One of the rationales given by helicopter tour companies and Forest Service for allowing these tours is that it inspires people to act regarding climate change, but they have no actual data to support this assertion.
It has made me more aware more than anything. This was always on my bucket list to see before it melted away and seeing how fast it was melting before my eyes was pretty mind blowing.
@@MrBucketlist Excuse the delay in noting you responded. How has your awareness impacted any of your behaviors as they relate to climate change? This is a sincere question. I live a couple of miles from the Mendenhall Glacier, and have watched it recede for 60 years. I travel less, drive less, strive to consume less, and more thoughtfully.
The walk is very short. You probably take no more than 25 to 30 steps. It's more of land on the center of the glacier which gives you a panoramic view of the environment.
This is the best Alaskan cruise excursion! I absolutely recommend it if it's within your budget especially if you are comfortable booking directly with Temsco. Celebrity Cruise Line were absolute thieves when booking through them. Thank you for sharing your experience! 👍
You're welcome Deniz! I agree. Even though I didn't have any issues I would still recommend booking directly with them as they were a really good company and deserve 100% of their compensation. I can only imagine how big of a cut Royal took.
What month did you visit? I’m looking at an early May visit due to work and cost factors. I’m nervous the excursions I want, including this one won’t be operating that early in the season!

I signed up for the Helicopter sightseeing tour and glacier walkabout. Description details about 1 hour of walking. How physically fit should a person be to be enjoy the tour?
Dude thank you so much for this video! I'm going on my first ever cruise and we're doing Brilliance of the Seas in Alaska this July. I've been trying to figure out which excursions I want to pick and this video made me want to choose this so thank you!
