It was a great hike. My family members were new to hiking and reported they had a great time. Lochlan was very informative and was great.

Great hike at Exit Glacier, not difficult with good views Guide was knowledgeable and accommodating.

Lachlan gave us a great experience hiking up to see views of Exit Glacier. He shared so many great facts and stories to add more to our hike. Highly recommend!!!
Kevin_H, Jul 2025
This hike was perfect for beginners and intermediates, especially since we didn’t have much time. Lochlan was an excellent guide, and both my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
Lisa_K, Jul 2025
Derek was an outstanding guide! He shared knowledge of the plants, animals, and historical geography throughout the hike. He was so easy to talk with and went above and beyond to make sure our trip was perfect! I am so glad we went this route instead of just hiking ourselves. Worth every penny spent.
Sarah_K, Jul 2025
Our hike was beautiful and our guide Lochlan was knowledgeable about the area and provided a great experience. The company will tailor the hike to your fitness level and experience as well and are very accommodating.

Amazing tour! Al was super friendly, knowledgeable and made the experience memorable and personable. She was attentive to the needs of the group and made sure to give us plenty of time to take pictures along the way!
Pennelyn_H, Sep 2024
The hike was really fun and the views were spectacular! Coen( sp) was amazing !! He was knowledgeable and professional and so accommodating! The pick up and drop off were really nice as he came right to our VRBO! I rate this experience as a five star plus!! Thank you!!
Debra_S, Aug 2024
The guide and her knowledge of the environment on our hike was fantastic. She based the hike on where I wanted to go (rougher trail and in the mountains) which was excellent.
Brett_E, Aug 2024
Our guide Tatum made the hike so special. It may be the highlight of our trip. She was very knowledgeable and just an all around great person you will enjoy spending the day with.
Sharon_W, Aug 2024
Tatum was awesome and I would give her 5 stars. The reason I score it a 3 is that the posting wasn’t clear on the rocky conditions that you encounter on this hike to the glacier. There is a less strenuous hike that is offered but you have to tell them as the options aren’t clear when you sign up; it just says 4 hours. I can walk on a 5-10 degree grade all day but not crawling up stair step rocks for 4 hours! We had fun- made it to a small waterfall then came back down.
Maria_E, Aug 2024
It was an easy hike, we we expecting more and was a rainy day, so we couldn’t see much. The guide was very nice and avalible.
Barbara_H, Jul 2024
The trail was beautiful and Tatum was a great guide but we paid for a 4-Hour tour. We had a total of a two-hour hike plus about 10 to 15 minutes drive time. Quite a bit less than we expected and what we paid for
Deena_H, Jun 2024
Beautiful views! Trail was a bit more rugged than expected. I would encourage walking sticks for all to help with catching yourself and using it for leverage with those more tricky steps. So glad we were able to take in this experience!
Lorelei_N, Jun 2024
Our guide “Al” was personable and knowledgeable about the wildlife, plants, glaciers , etc. We had a perfect hile to Exit Glacier and great pics! Spotting a bear on the way out was a bonus for sure!
Douglas_A, Sep 2023
The guide was excellent. We ran into a bear right away and she had us slowly get behind her and she stayed calm and the bear just lumbered off. We were glad to have an experienced guide at that point! One of our family members has down syndrome and she adjusted the hike to meet his abilities and kept encouraging him.
Kevin_F, Sep 2023
We had a great hike with Miles. Very knowledgeable and fun. Highly recommend !!
They pick you up at your hotel and bring you back after your hike. No issues. All staff friendly
Patricia_S, Sep 2023
Miles was an excellent guide, so knowledgeable and patient. We had a fantastic 4 hr hike, start to finish!! Highly recommend!
Andrea_R, Aug 2023
We enjoy the views of Exit Glacier from very close, was an awesome trip day. Miles was a great guide, he understood our needs and adapted the trip to us
Amy_L, Aug 2023
We had a wonderful experience with Travis on our wilderness hike. Travis was very knowledgeable and was able to share so much interesting information about the area’s plants, glaciers, rocks, wildlife, etc. We went on areas of the trail we never would have ventured, and the money was well worth it. I highly recommend this tour and this company for your adventures in and around Seward.
David_S, Aug 2023
Miles was amazing , friendly, and gave us a day we will never forget ! We were able to see the glacier up close.
Renee_Y, Jul 2023
Miles did a great job on our hike. He had a lot of information to share! We definitely enjoyed our hike and all the useful and interesting information!
Michael_P, Jul 2023
Hiking up near the glacier was awesome! Learned a lot about glaciers. Only downside was our guide took some great pics with his camera but we have to sort through too many pictures on the website to get ours.
Lindee_L, Jul 2023
Loved the hike!!! Beautiful country and great view of Exit glacier!! Hike was not too difficult and was super fun having a knowledgeable guide lead us. Our guide knew so much about the glacier mountains and the vegetation!!! Totally worth paying for a guided hike!! We were able to choose what we wanted to see and how far we wanted to go. Would definitely recommend this to visitors in Seward.
Martha_M, Jul 2023
Myles was our fascinating & knowledgeable guide to the Exit Glacier. He was very enjoyable & enthusiastic about this area of Alaska, sharing information of the forest, fauna as well as the glaciers we were able to see on the perfect day we had. Highly recommend!
JoelBeth_N, Jul 2023
Miles was a great guide. Truly enjoyed our Mt. Marathon hiking trip got to see a Moose about 100 ft away. Walked over creeks and through forest. Some of it was a little steep but totally doable
Jeanette_E, Jun 2023
We enjoyed our guide’s knowledge and personal stories. It was a great hike, tailored to our activity level.

The entire trail with much diversity of flora and scenery. And of course the final destination view of Exit Glacier
