Top Anchorage Bus Tours - page 2

Dan was our tour guide to explore Anchorage and we could not have had a better guide. Dan was upbeat, knowledgeable, and friendly. We saw so many places on our tour. Some we passed by with a detailed history of each place. We stopped at the Uli knife store, the chocolate factory with free samples and the huge chocolate fountain, and a very unique fur store with amazing merchandise. We also went to the float plane marina to see the planes. This was an amazing tour and a very special way to get your introduction to Anchorage. Dan was the best tour guide!

Alaska Helicopter Tours delivered a truly once-in-a-lifetime experience. They picked us up right at our Anchorage hotel for the easy hour-long drive to the launch point, and the whole team was friendly and accommodating from start to finish. The flight out to Knik Glacier was thrilling — breathtaking views and an exceptionally smooth ride. Our pilot, Jake, was professional throughout and made sure we felt well cared for the entire time. Standing on the glacier itself was humbling. Walking on thousand-year-old ice and taking in the sheer scale of this 25-mile glacier left us in awe, and the crystal-blue meltwater streams were incredible to see up close. The return flight brought its own magic — we spotted a black bear, three moose in separate waterholes, and two white mountain goats along the way. This was an experience and a set of memories we'll carry with us for a lifetime.

This is definitely an amazing experience that we won’t forget for a lifetime. Dylan, our pilot, and Madi, our dogsled team leader were 10/10!! The whole process was very smooth and simple - the helicopter ride to the glacier, snuggling with the dogs and puppies, and dogsledding were incredible times that I highly recommend to anyone!

The tour can be modified for rainy weather. Our guide, Mark, was knowledgeable and provided a fun and informative tour, despite the heavy rain and wind. We were able to drive through the wildlife refuge (can't do this on a big bus) and still saw lots of animals. People had the option to exit the vehicle for photos, while others stayed dry. When the rain cleared on the return trip, we stopped at a beautiful rainforest with a short walk to a waterfall. Mark helped us to make the best of a very rainy day. We definitely recommend this tour.

Great trip to the glacier! Our driver Patrick was so knowledgeable and gave us great advice. He even helped us set up our cell phone cameras for the best pictures. You get a little over 2 hours to hike around the glacier with a local guide. Our guide Sophie was excellent. This was a great way to fill up a day either pre or post-cruise if you are staying in Anchorage.

Really great tour for a very informative, interesting, and enjoyable introduction to Anchorage. Comfortable van, I was seated in the very middle, in a middle seat, and I could see everything anyone else could see. Our guide David was outstanding. So friendly, so knowledgeable, so interesting, and some perfect site visits. Even if we had visited the same sites on our own, it wouldn't have been nearly as meaningful as it was with David's background and insights about everything. One site, I am sure we would never have even found without him, even with GPS. There was nothing bored, or boring, or memorized and rehearsed monotone delivery about this; everything David told us was alive and in the moment, and you knew it came from a deep well of familiarity with and love for Alaska and Anchorage; I know he could have kept talking so much more, and it would have all been super interesting. He kept us engaged and fascinated the entire 2 1/2 hours. I loved the small group, max of 12; so much more personal. I would do this tour again.

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.

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.
