Alaska Dog Sledding Glacier Tour — Juneau Cruise Shore Excursion
Cinematic footage of Juneau's most emotional glacier shore excursion — dog sledding on ancient ice, accessible only by helicopter. Built by a husband-and-wife team who left social services to share their sled dogs with the world. Shot by an Alaska expedition film crew with 20 years of access. Ideal for cruise lines, shore excursion operators, and Alaska travel brands.
They left careers in social services for a wild idea — stick sled dogs on a glacier and see if anyone shows up. Today it's one of the most emotionally powerful shore excursions in Alaska. It's not uncommon for passengers to be crying at the end, hugging the guides, calling it the highlight of their trip. Getting that on camera was another story.
"If we don't leave in 15 minutes, you are staying the night on this glacier."
An hour earlier we'd touched down by helicopter — four hours of filming ahead of us, dogs ready, light perfect. Then Mother Nature shifted. Fast.
Fifteen minutes. That's what we had left.
We cut the shot list to the bone, grabbed what mattered, and spent the final seven minutes capturing everything we could while the helicopter spun up behind us. Heart pounding. Camera rolling.
That's the WABU way.
“If we stuck our sled dogs up on a glacier and convinced a heli company to fly up...
I wonder if anyone would come?”
