Get a unique perspective of Anchorage, nestled peacefully between the Chugach Mountains and Cook Inlet.
Take off from Lake Hood, the world’s largest seaplane base, on Rust’s introductory floatplane adventure. Designed to show off Alaska’s largest city and surrounding wilderness while enjoying the exhilaration of taking off and landing on water. Your expert pilot will evaluate the days’ conditions and select best viewing. You’ll hear stories and fun facts as you fly over Anchorage and explore the Chugach Mountains, its secluded valleys, and the famed Captain Cook’s aptly named Turnagain Arm or the beautiful Susitna Valley with opportunity to spot for moose and black bear in their natural habitat.
