This is an amazing way to be guaranteed to see many of Alaska's most sought after wildlife in a safe and animal friendly park! The bears are adorable, but trust me, seeing a bear in the wild can be a pretty intimidating. Much of Alaska's wildlife you will never see and even the moose, which are super common, visitors can go days or even weeks without seeing one and sometimes you'll see a few in any given day but visiting Alaska's Wildlife Conservation Center guarantees you'll see these animals and so many more! Licensed by Alaska's Transportation Department, this is for 3 - 10 people because of the way the Viator commissions and Park fees work, if you are just one or two people you can still book the tour but I need to charge for 3 - 10 people to make it feasible, if that makes sense.

What are people saying about Portage Glacier

Turnagain Arm and Portage Valley Private Tour

Christopher_H, Aug 2023

Great personalized tour!

Other than a hiccup with the dining at the top of the tram not being available, we had a great day on Turnagain Arm. Dawn was a wonderful guide--offered good information along the way but also was sensitive to our need for "quiet time" as we were tired from two weeks of traveling in Alaska. Good balance overall, and a gorgeous day to see Portage Glacier!

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.

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.

Glacier cruise and Alaska conservation tour

Great fun with tour guide Matthew. Loved the informative tour. The boat ride didn’t occur due to mechanical issues, so went to a salmon spawning stream. Ended up to seeing a brown bear in a stream! Which was much more thrilling!!!

Wonderful Tour and Experience

The group traveled along Turn Again Arm and visit many stops including the Wild Life Center. Gary hosted, drove and provided information about the places where we visited. He had great stories about Alaska. I felt bad for him since the group was mostly quiet. Nevertheless, he kept the information and stories flowing and I listened.

Portage Glacier

We were in Anchorage just for the weekend and Portage Glacier was recommended. Glad that we booked a tour with them. Our tour guy - Matt - was awesome. We learned so much about Alaska culture during this tour. Matt is very acknowledged about Anchorage, well organized, fun to be around, and took good care of his group. Highly recommended this Portage Glacier tour. Our family really enjoyed this tour and keep up with the great work, Matt.
