Thank you for your review! I’m glad you enjoyed seeing so many sites and appreciated the knowledge I was able to share along the way. It was a pleasure having you on the tour, and I hope the rest of your time in Alaska was just as memorable.
Stu_J, Aug 2025
It is a small group tour. The portions are generous and there is sightseeing in between the eateries (restaurants, bakeries, ice cream parlors). Elizabeth was our tour guide and she was born nearby so she was able to share he local experiences with us. The pickup spot was only a short walk from our hotel so we didn't need to spend extra money and waste time getting back and forth. We did this tour on our last day in Alaska. If you have the chance, I would do this tour on the first day because we would have visited these restaurants instead of the ones recommended by the cruise. Also, do not expect to sample native Alaskan (Tlingit, Athabacan, Aleut) food. The food is representative of the area going back about 100 years to today. I don't think the native Alaskans made salmonberry muffins or ate rockfish tacos.
Response from Host, Aug 2025
Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful review! We’re so glad you enjoyed your time with Elizabeth—her local roots and stories really bring Anchorage to life. We love that you found the tour easy to join from your hotel and that it made a fun way to wrap up your trip. Thank you again for joining us—we hope the memories (and flavors!) linger long after your trip.
David_C, Aug 2025
Our tour guide Chris was fantastic! He shared a wealth of knowledge with us regarding Anchorage’s history and many cool local sites.

Response from Host, Aug 2025
