What are people saying about Anchorage

Sarah_B, Jun 2026

Great E-Bike Tour!

Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and we had great weather for the bike ride. We managed to see one bull moose off of the trail in the woods, and along the way stopped at some great spots for photos that our guide took. Highly recommend for those who want a bit more physical exertion without it being too difficult.

Do it!

My husband and I had so much fun on this tour! Our tour guide, Lori was extremely knowledgeable and kind. We stopped along the way for snacks and a bathroom break, as well as for lunch after at a lodge nearby the glacier. The glacier itself was also amazing! The guides were very kind, helpful, and made sure we were all safe, while also making the experience fun. 10/10, or in this case 5/5, highly recommend!

Wonderful experience! Our...

Wonderful experience! Our tour guide Prince was very kind, and on a cooler day, the trolley was nice and warm. He took lots of our family pictures for us, as well! The meeting point on Viator is incorrect, however! So be sure to call or message in advance, or walk down a different street to find a big red trolley. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking to get a native’s glimpse into Anchorage!

Interesting city tour

Donna was a great guide, very knowledgeable and engaging. Unfortunately a few of the scheduled stops were closed for Christmas, the ulo factory and the salmon tasting which we had been looking forward to so not super happy about this, but still will give 5 stars because of Donna.

I booked this small group...

I booked this small group tour instead of the large group excursions offered during our cruise. There were just 4 of us (we traveled with 2 friends). Christina was incredibly flexible with the itinerary. We had tickets on the first glacier boat trip of the day. Only 12 people on board compared with 120 who were booked for the 11.30 departure. We stopped off at a salmon run, had plenty of time at the Alaskan Conservation Center & made several side stops for photos & to enjoy the scenery. It was a really wonderful day. For a virtually private trip lasting almost 7 hours, we paid half the price of the cruise Hubbard Glacier trip - lasting 2 hours with 200 people on board.

So Fun and Beautiful

This bike tour was incredible ! We went with Cory and Jeremiah and they both were great. Cory was our guide on the trails and was amazing. The timing was perfect because we got to see beautiful yellow leaves, plus multiple moose. Cory ensured we remain at a safe distance from them. There were a few stops along the ride. This is a great tour if you haven't cycled in a long time.

Alaska Wildlife Day Tour with Free Hotel Pickup

Bridget_W, Sep 2025

What a day!

Hotel pick up and return was a huge bonus. Our guide, Billy learned our names and helped us get the very best out of the day with his knowledge of the areas we visited. The Portage glacier boat tour rocked with plenty of photo ops. The trip to the AWCC was made even better with Billy's ability to lead us to the best viewing of the animals because he was so familiar with the site. I highly recommend this tour experience and commend Billy for an amazing day.

Matt, our tour guide, made the excursion unforgettable

Travelers are on a lake to witness the incredible portage glacier. We sat inside the boat so it wasn’t very cold or bumpy. My husband was with a walker and the cruise was very accessible but getting in and out of the shuttle was challenging but doable. Matt our tour guide made the trip informative and interesting. He is also a special person and was very attentive.

Book now!!!

FANTASTIC! You will not regret booking this tour. Gary was so fun, personable, and informed about every sight and spot. He took photos for us at all the scenic places and was so passionate about the beauty that it felt even more beautiful to us, too. He always had an anecdote to fill the air and we could feel how much he truly loves Alaska and the people he meets doing these tours. The glacial lakes were breathtaking and we learned a lot about the landscape and wildlife. This was the perfect introduction to Alaska for my family — we had a blast and we were so impressed by Gary. Thank you so much!!
