What are people saying about Denali National Park

Alaskan Back Country Side by Side ATV Adventure with Meal

Amanda_S, Jun 2026

Book it, it’s worth it.

Our family had Alaska on our bucket list for years, and this ATV tour was one of the best things we did the trip. If you’re on the fence about booking it, go for it! Caleb and Shane were awesome and really made the experience fit our family. My husband loves off-roading, so he appreciated that the trails were rugged and fun. I’m a much more cautious driver, and I never felt nervous or out of my comfort zone. The views were incredible, and we learned so much along the way. The stories and local knowledge kept both our 9-year-old and 13-year-old interested, which is win! The food was also amazing. We expected a simple lunch, but it was more like a delicious multi-course meal with some of the best mountain views we’ve ever seen.

3 Hour SHERP Tour: Denali Fat Truck Tours

Maria_B, Jun 2026

Two middle aged couples...

Two middle aged couples traveling and wanting to see wildlife and this part of Alaska. This activity did NOT disappoint. There was an extra passenger with us in the truck. We were all very comfortable and had a fantastic time with Stephan as our guide. This is a family business and we could see the pride and passion for what they do, from the time we were picked up by them around the corner from where we were staying, to the safety video and chat before boarding the truck, to all the information shared by Stephan and the time we spent riding. It was lots of fun! Highly recommend!!!

Denali Rock Creek Trail hike (leisurely stroll)

Be ready for all kinds of weather. Our guide Don was so prepared. He had bug spray for the mosquitos, room in his backpack if we needed to get rid of a layer and he even had raincoats for us! His knowledge of the area was quite entertaining. He even understood my slower pace and was accommodating. The views were spectacular for this first-time hiker! Would highly recommend this tour!

Denali Peak Sightseeing by Plane

Randolph_H, May 2026

Denali Air is a great experience.

While the weather looked iffy we took off (8 passengers plus pilot) as we flew towards Denali we got above the clouds and the sites were awesome. Our pilot was the best and took us around mountain peaks and tremendous glaciers below. While the peak of Denali remained hidden in the clouds everything else was breath taking. This was a great experience and highly recommend.

Denali Highway Jeep Excursion

The whole experience was...

The whole experience was great. Dan & Nick were our van drivers, leaders, navigators, hosts and narrators. They did a great job balancing safety and fun for us. The jeeps were much nicer than we expected; clean, worked well, included a bottled water for each of us and very high quality binoculars. Pick up from & return to our resort was smooth & effortless.

Our guide was excellent—friendly and safety-focused. We stopped at four incredible vantage points including a dry creek bed, forested trails, and high valley overlooks with stunning views of the Alaska Range. The terrain was a fantastic mix of hills, mud, rocks and open scenic stretches. Highly recommend this for scenic value, fun pace, and great staff.
