    More of a van ride to destination than a tour

    Joy_J, Aug 2026
    I would not recommend this “tour.” it started and ended on time and took a where we expected to go, but that’s really all you can say for it. Our driver didn’t greet us, give us the order of the itinerary or even let us know when a bathroom stop might be. Overall, it was very poorly organized. When we arrived at the first destination, the wildlife preserve another passenger looked at me and said “where are we??” 🤣 I only knew because I have been there before so I was able to help.

    Overbooked

    It was overbooked and canceled as there was no seat in the van for me and few other people when we showed up on time

    A great half day trip.

    Great trip covering both the wildlife at the conservation area, the drive along the Seward Highway and the cruise to Portage Glacier. Great commentary along the route. Would definitely recommend.

    First Time Anchorage Alaska Visit

    Portage Glazier Cruises is really great. Our driver, Matthew 'Mateo', makes the trip exciting to the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center and then to Portage Lake for the Glazier Cruise. Along the drive there he provides great information from start to finish, he knows the route really well, we learned a lot. I hesitated at first to book this through Viator because I was debating to just drive a rental instead, but afterwards I was glad I booked this instead for me and my family. If you have doubts, trust me, this is the way to go, it's totally worth it!

    Our guide Matthew was...

    Our guide Matthew was kind and informative, and so were the staff on the glacier cruise. It's harrowing to see the historic photos of the glacier compared with its current size due to modern man-made climate change.

    Wonderful experience.
