This is one of the most amazing drives of your vacation! ...I'm Kel Thompson, the owner/operator and your tour guide! Yes, I do all my own tours (and stunts!) I've guided over 10,000 guests for multiple companies in my career here in Alaska and now offer my own private tours in an amazing new Mercedes Sprinter! Before guiding I was a standup comedian and combine humor with a fervent love of Alaskan history, and this all goes into your cruise transfer, which goes through the historic Anton Anderson tunnel and down the mountain lined Turnagain Arm! Along the way, we'll pull out for photo stops and a coffee if you would like! (Time permitting.) I am very flexible and want to make this part of your journey just as fun and memorable as the rest of your vacation! I have limited availability so book early and message me any special requests via the app you booked on! (I can accommodate private groups up to 10 people per tour.)
