Awesome Anchorage day trip - David is a wonderful knowledge guide who shares his love for his adopted state . The van is comfortable with huge windows . David gives you an hour plus at Alyeska to hike or dine- wonderful views. Then an hour and a half at the animal rescue- all the animals were out- brown and black bear, caribou, elk, muskox, wood bison, wolves, lynx, moose. Because we had great weather David made a couple of extra stops- to view the Explorer glacier and then see spawning salmon up close. What a great trip. So glad we didn't rent a car! Thanks David!

Super day trip from Anchorage - This was a 6 hour tour from Anchorage that combined a tram ride up to the Alyeska mountain ski trails and the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center. David was an excellent tour guide - very knowledgeable about the history, geography, physics, and biology of the area we traversed, the places we visited, and the animals we saw. Highly recommend.
