Black Ops Valdez - Day Adventures, Alaska, United States
4.5 (62 reviews) Spent Ranking #9 in Valdez Gear Rentals • Hiking & Camping Tours
Best Trip Ever!!!!!
I would like to say thank you to Tabatha and her amazing team. They created a customized trip of a lifetime for me. I spent time in the helicopter (bird) and on the sleds (snow machines). This was the best trip I have been on and will absolutely rebook next year. The heli riding was insane and the guide (Steve) was an absolute legend. So knowledgeable, friendly, and humble. I felt so lucky to be part of the team on the best day of riding in my life. The next day it started snowing hard and I went on the snow machine tour. Could not have been better. So much terrain and so many laps. The lead guide (Peter) was awesome and he had an amazing team as well. There were two couples who worked for Black Ops and they shared the stoke. There was Danny and Dani, and Anna and ?. I basically had a photographer (Dani) on my heli team who was so friendly and also went out of her way to make my day memorable. I forgot the names of everybody so I apologize. You all are rock stars. One thing I think everybody should understand is that the weather and logistics call the shots in Valdez. It is best to stay more days and plan ahead. That being said, I absolutely scored and the vibes were epic from the first email to the goodbyes. Tabatha went out of her way to make me feel welcome and moved mountains to accommodate me. Would recommend to anyone who wants to have the best riding experience of their lives.

Great Trip! Already planning our return!
My husband and I booked a trip with Black Ops Valdez in March 2022. We had both heli skied in Canada before but we wanted to try out Alaska. I was a little nervous to be honest, but we ended up having the best time! We were on a 5-Day trip and the weather was not great the first day, but it opened up for the rest of our stay and the terrain was just spectacular with amazing powder conditions. Steve was our guide and he was super professional and helped ease my anxiety before we took off. He also found us some great lines ? He even took and shared some amazing photos of us, which I really appreciated. Personally, I really enjoyed the lodge experience. It’s not huge, but it’s super cozy and the food was Incredible! We met two other couples that were there at the same time, and we all really hit it off, so it was fun spending time with them in the evenings too. The hot tub and sauna were an extra bonus for recovery each day. All of the staff was super friendly and knowledgeable. It’s not a cheap ski trip, but the experience is so worth it. Alaska got us hooked, so we are already saving and planning for another trip next year. Would highly recommend Black Ops to future guests.
