    First class, the Alaska way

    The wild does not follow a script. Neither do we.

    First class means experienced pilots and guides, capable aircraft, thoughtful planning and enough flexibility to choose the strongest day available.

    Weather, tides, access and bear activity change throughout the season. We use that information instead of one rigid itinerary to shape each safari from our base on Beluga Lake.

    The Alaska Ultimate approach

    “We create the access. Alaska creates the moment.”
    Eric and Kirsten Lee of Alaska Ultimate Safaris
    Eric and Kirsten Lee, owners, pilots and guides

    Owner operated in Homer

    Aviation, wildlife and remote Alaska are our life, not a theme.

    We built Alaska Ultimate Safaris around flying, wild places and the kind of personal care only a small operation can give.

    Our story includes helicopters, de Havilland Beavers, remote terrain and years of learning how quickly Alaska can change.
