Alaska adventure - It’s an easy hike and awesome experience! The animals are well taken care of in the reserve. The black bear put a show on for us. It was so much fun to watch. Our guide Stephanie was wonderful! So nice and knowledgeable. She went over and beyond our expectations. I loved being picked up at our hotel. It made our trip so easy.

Perfect Day 1 in Anchorage Tour - A great way to experience Anchorage for the first time. Guides were very knowledgable - I learned a lot! Saw glaciers, icebergs, bears, wolves, moose and more. Would definitely recommend, especially for day one of the trip.

Great day! - Our tour guide Corey was very informative. Very personable. Saw the bears wandering around at wildlife center & a young moose. Bald eagles flying. No beluga whales- the tide was out. It was raining for our walk to the glacier, but the views were still great. Nice way to see more of Anchorage area in a day.

Fun day - Be prepared this is a full day of things to do. That being said we had a really good time. Our guide, Corey, was great. Very knowledgeable and fun. If you want to see the sites and are looking for a low key day, this is it.

Wildlife encounter was underwhelming - The wildlife encounter was too much like a zoo, and we never stopped at the ULU knife factory. We saw Dahl sheep, glaciers and some nice sightseeing. Lunch in Whittier was very good.

It was such a great... - It was such a great experience seeing everything. I wish we could’ve seen the glacier, that’s why I only rated it 4 stars. I was hoping to see it.
