Meet the Owners of Alaska Ultimate Safaris: Eric and Kirsten

Alaska Ultimate Safaris owners Eric and Kirsten built their company around aviation, Alaska, and a deep love for wild places. Their story started long before the business became known for bear viewing, helicopter adventures, and remote Alaska safaris from Homer.

Eric and Kirsten share a life built around flying. Their background includes helicopters, airplanes, remote terrain, and years of exploring Alaska from the air. That experience shapes the way Alaska Ultimate Safaris operates today.

Their engagement even happened on top of Augustine Volcano, one of Alaska’s most dramatic volcanic landscapes. Later, they were married with aviation and the outdoors at the center of the day. For them, flying has always been more than transportation. It has been part of their story.

Today, Alaska Ultimate Safaris gives guests a personal way to experience Alaska. The company focuses on small groups, wild scenery, and carefully planned adventures. Guests may travel by helicopter, floatplane, or wheel plane depending on the route, weather, and best available wildlife viewing.

That local knowledge matters. Alaska changes quickly, and each day can bring new weather, new bear activity, and new opportunities. Eric, Kirsten, and their team use real-time conditions to help create the best experience possible.

When guests book with Alaska Ultimate Safaris, they are not booking a generic tour. They are joining a locally owned Alaska company with deep aviation roots and a real connection to the places they visit.

From bear viewing in Lake Clark and Katmai to helicopter adventures near Homer, the goal is simple: share Alaska in a safe, personal, and unforgettable way.
