Incredible anniversary celebration on a glacier - Patrick was a very nice driver. He did a good job driving the highway and celebrated our Anniversary! Nick our guide on the glacier was incredible!!! So knowledgeable and chopped a piece of ice and carved it right in front of us in the shape of a heart and gave to us to celebrate our 35 th anniversary! I did feel bad for Nick with all the idiots assigned to our group at the lodge that kept wanting to do stupid and dangerous things on the ice… so sad people cannot listen and follow rules for their own safety! I would highly recommend this tour… so educational as well…

A very good trip. - An Enthusiastic Driver, an Outstanding Trip I had a wonderful glacier tour in Alaska and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The guide company was professional, well organized, and very friendly throughout the entire trip. Our guide was knowledgeable and explained the glacier, local wildlife, and environment in a very interesting way. The safety arrangements were excellent, which made me feel comfortable during the whole journey. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, and the guide made sure everyone had enough time to enjoy the views and take photos. I really appreciate the effort the team put into making the trip enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour company to anyone visiting Alaska.

Prompt pick up, pleasant commentary, would recommend - glacier walk - Picked up on time, warm clean van, Patrick offered warm friendly commentary on our drive. Stopped for photos at overlook and Patrick taught us a couple handy iPhone tricks that made our photos better. Quick stop to pick up our own food at supermarket / Starbucks and seamless drive to glacier. Offered extra layers and hand warmers, assisted with cleats to get us ready for our glacier walk. Enjoyed the day and would recommend.
