Juneau helicopter/glacier trek info

[Sisa]

My husband (a manly man!) is interested in doing the helicopter gracial trek from Juneau. There is an excursion offered through Princess for about $400, which includes the helicopter ride, and a 4 hour guided trek. Has anyone else done this trip? Was it worthwhile? Is anyone aware of any independent operators which we should consider instead?

 

We would appreciate your help.

I have not gone with this company, but it gets consistant raves. I have glacier trekked 4 hours and the time flew by for me.

 

Previous posts of those taking the shorter trekks, some wished they had booked the longer option. Do a board search for first hand information.
