Amazing Experience!! - This was an amazing experience and Captain C made it even better. Captain C communicated with us before our tour and was very personable throughout the ride. She gave us a bathroom stop/lunch purchase stop prior to reaching the destination which we really appreciated. Once reaching the destination, Captain C ensured we received the proper gear (ski pants, toe heaters, and ice cleats) before beginning the hike. We met up with the Glacier tour guide Chris who was also very knowledgeable and made this experience amazing. Captain C took our photos throughout the tour and Chris ensured we enjoyed every part of Matanuska Glacier and kept us safe. Overall, this was an amazing experience and I would definitely recommend this to anyone considering booking this tour. Enjoy some of the pictures Captain C took of us.

A Fantastic Trip! - Heather was fantastic! She went above and beyond to create such a wonderful experience. I was a solo traveler and I felt like spent the day with a friend, rather than guide. Thanks so much, Heather! I hope to do another tour with you again.

Exploring breathtaking glaciers with Captain C. - We recently had the pleasure of hiking with Captain C, and it was an unforgettable experience! My teenager son and I spent our spring break exploring the breathtaking glaciers with her. Her enthusiasm and expertise made the hike both educational and enjoyable. We appreciated the numerous stops to take pictures. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for a memorable glacier hike!

Cruising through Alaska - Let me first talk about our guide. Jet is a wonderful guide that had plenty of knowledge about Alaska in the whole. Very informative, entertaining, and fun. He has a great personality and a really great attitude about quick changes. I would definitely recommend him as a guide. He's a strong asset to the company. If you visit Anchorage. And have time to go take a tour. This is the company and the guide you want. We can't wait to plan our next adventure. Thank you, Jet, for being our guide.

Going on an Anchorage Glacier Hike? Ask for Jet! - If you’ve ever been on a tour anywhere for anything, you know that the tour guide sets the vibe. The wildlife glacier hike with Jet is not a 6 hour walk on a mountain side, but a combination of scenic road views with many gram-worthy photo stops, fun facts and personable conversation, good snacks and gorgeous waterfalls, and a guide as enthusiastic as the guests to experience why everyone comes to see Alaska! Don’t hesitate to book this tour…and ask for Jet!

Anchorage excursion tour - Aaron is the best travel guider,he is not only generally introduced each place but also told us details from history, zoology, botanics, geology, ecology to many other topics. We learned a lot so that we would like to Anchorage again and refer to our friends. Aaron is enthusiastic, companionate, friendly. We like him!
