What are people saying about Denali National Park

Kimberly_M, Aug 2026

Nothing can compare to this view

Nothing can compare to seeing the highest peaks in Denali from above! I was a little scared at first, as we took off and headed into the park, but that was quickly replaced by feelings of awe and fascination. The park is immense and you can really see this from the air. We flew around & between the peaks, and over several glaciers not visible from the ground. Everyone working there was friendly and helpful. The pilot pointed out all the major sites and several groups of Dall sheep grazing way up high. It’s a must do & a great complement to the bus tour.

Bumpy but fun

ATV trip is fun and bumpy. Our two guides Caleb and David were excellent. The food was good and plenty. Didn’t see any animals, but we did see some interesting and scenic areas. Guides will stop and take pictures if your group and tell about the area your in. Good time

We had such a great time...

We had such a great time on the wagon! Marek was an incredible guide and made our experience so fun! The meal that was included was delicious and the views from the wagon were beautiful. 10/10 would recommend for a family excursion, especially after a long day of hiking.

3 Hour SHERP Tour: Denali Fat Truck Tours

Bruce_W, Aug 2026

The only way to see Denali

This excursion in all of the workers were like a fine tune machine. Their emphasis on safety and having a great time was at the floor front throughout the whole trip my wife and I felt very comfortable with Stefan and his knowledge. We would definitely recommend this trip. Our friends went on the Dune buggy and they regretted it. The flat tire excursion is the way to go perfect day.

Denali Rafting Wilderness Wave

Jason_B, Aug 2026

Fun on the Nenana!

Our family group of 9 had a great time on the Wilderness Wave tour! It was the perfect tour for our multi-generational group in that it was tame enough to bring the kids on while still being exciting for the rest of us! Our guide Brianna did a great job steering the raft and engaging with the kids...she was amazing! The short Class 3 rapids on the river were a lot of fun for the entire group...we got soaked (but not really thanks to the dry suits). We also saw Dall Sheep...in fact this was the best view we had of them the entire trip! I highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants a fun rafting adventure in Denali that isn't too crazy

Denali Highway Jeep Excursion

Denali Highway Jeep

Emma and Dan were wonderful. The jeeps were in great condition. Emma, being the lead, took us to parts of the highway (off the highway) that we would never have seen otherwise. Viator is great too. We booked the EASY raft expedition with a different tour company and after we viewed the actual rafting trip onnthe river I realized i wouldnt be able to do it due to mediacl condition. It was not the "easy" they made it out to be and they wouldnt refund our money even days before. I will only use Viator from now on.

Our guide, Don was...

Our guide, Don was delightful! He was extremely knowledgeable, enthusiastic and personable. We learned a lot of fascinating facts about the beautiful scenery surrounding us and he entertained us with stories as we took in the stunning vistas in open areas as well as some wooded areas . An easy hike with a big “ pay off” !

Denali Naturalist Walking Tour

Virginia_A, Jul 2026

Excellent

We consider our walking tour today to be one of the best tours we have taken over the past ten years. Our tour guide, Alex Norris, was enthusiastic and knowledgeable with his expertise of the Alaskan Backcountry. We are sorry that we’re leaving tomorrow because we would definitely book another tour. We are leaving Alaska very happy to have had this experience. Doug and Virginia Aitken West Chester, Pennsylvania

Denali Park Zipline Adventure

Anup_R, Jul 2026

Absolutely fun ziplining....

Absolutely fun ziplining. They have a total of 6 ziplines with various heights and lengths which adds to the fun element. We had 2 guides who made extra sure we were safe before every zip line and every step( little bit of tree top is also included). Bonus 15 min ATV ride to and fro from the starting point to the zipline location. Would absolutely recommend this zipline in the Denali area.
