Taylor was patient and friendly. You can tell he enjoys his job and interaction with each person. We were picked up and dropped off exactly as planned. I most appreciate the quick response to any text messages. The stops were beautiful. Had a great time

Great! Our guide Geoff tried to squeeze in as many secret spots as possible. We were exhausted by the end of the day. Great guide and highly recommended tour.

    It is a full day of exploring parts of Alaska you won’t see from the cruise ports. A wonderful way to travel to Anchorage with pickup from cruise terminal and drop off at your hotel or the airport. Taylor Luo was a great guide!! We made many stops, he pointed out things such as a moose and mountain goats and was vet informative, patient, and kind. It was a beautiful day!!

    The tour was really amazing! We visit a lot of incredible places, Jeff, our guide take care of all the group, he was very funny and friendly. We visit the conservation center were we can see bears and other animals, a waterfall, and we had incredible memories about this, thank you!

    Fun time!

    Great time. Lots of stops! Guide was amazing! Wildlife was worth the admission! Rocky start but more than made up for!

    Whittier Transfer

    Richard_K, May 2026
    Great Experience. We were Transferring from the ship to Anchorage airport. We visited several sites and had a great tour. Our Guide was knowledgeable and informative. He was great! We thoroughly enjoyed him.

    More than a transfer, a great tour!

    Tammy_H, Sep 2025
    This was an excellent transfer. Really it was more of a tour in itself and not just a transfer to the airport. Leona with Beluga did a great job keeping us interested and stopping at all the interesting spots along the way!

    Great Use of Time! Worth the spend!

    MICHAEL_S, Sep 2025
    We needed to get from Whittier to Anchorage from our cruise ship to the airport. The small Sprinter Van and the smaller number of passengers allowed for a private tour that was catered towards us. We were comfortable, engaged and not in ‘a herd’ with others. This was a great way to continue the vacation while we transported from one area to another.

    Leona was spectacular

    LINDA_C, Sep 2025
    Was very satisfied with such a great Tour guide LEONA. she was on time picking us up an dropping us off. She was very knowledgeable about the tour from Anchorage to Whittier. It was just us with her and it was great. She even named the glacier with no name after my friend Charlene,. so cute. Her photography pictures she took were outstanding. She was so pleasant and concerned of our safety. My only wish was if you could supply water on the trip or remind us to bring something to drink. after the hike we were so thirsty. My only regret was when all the other people got on the bus they were very disrespectful when they would sneeze or cough. never covering their mouth. Think next time i would bring a mask. Thank you Leona for an amazing TOUR.

    Best way to see more...

    Cheri_T, Sep 2025
    Best way to see more before your flight home. I ended a cruise in Whittier but wasn't flying out until late evening. This was a great way to see a little bit more of the area instead of getting a hotel room. The smaller busses (no logos, so don't look for them that way) are nice to keep the group numbers low. Lots of walking and Taylor was a great guide/driver for the day. Wildlife, glaciers and lots of stops for photos!

    Whittier to Anchorage tour

    TRACY_P, Sep 2025
    Geoff is probably one of the nicest and knowledgeable tour guides we’ve ever had! He was great with communication and made us feel so welcomed! This tour was definitely worth it and such good use of time since our flight in Anchorage wasn’t until late afternoon. Geoff never made us feel rushed at each destination and got us to the airport in good timing. We could all see how passionate he was about Alaska and sharing so many cool facts about the glaciers, wildlife, etc. I would 10/10 recommend him again!

    Excellent experience with Taylor on this tour. I think everyone had a good time. We stopped at numerous places along the way.

    Incredible Last Day Enjoying Alaska’s Incredible Beauty!

    Treva_B, Sep 2025
    One beautiful stop after another! If you have a late flight, spend it soaking up breathtaking scenery in Alaska instead of at the airport.

    Great tour

    Brian_L, Sep 2025
    Taylor was a great guide and took us to so many beautiful spots. I highly recommend this tour to anyone.

    Great Way to Transfer to Anchorage

    Richard_O, Aug 2025
    We really enjoyed traveling with Leona! Lots of beautiful scenery, wildlife and even Beluga Whales. One important note for participants! There is an opportunity to hike to the Byron Glacier. The gravel trail is 1.5 miles long and relatively flat, with a few slight slopes until you reach the glacier. Then the ground is rocky and uneven. If you choose not to take the hike, you can remain in the van. Leona was very accommodating to drop off people anywhere they needed.

    Great day excursion!

    Jennifer_P, Aug 2025
    A great way to end a cruise! Leona was fun and very informative. The hike to the glacier was beautiful! We saw salmon and bear tracks at Potter’s Marsh. Had a great lunch at a local pizza place. Saw a ton of animals at the wildlife sanctuary. Great way to spend the time before our red eye in Anchorage.

    A must see in Whittier!

    Jeannine_B, Aug 2025
    Taylor is a gem! What a great way to get to Anchorage from our ship. He was quite informative and he took the time to talk each of us. We enjoyed our time with him and it made for and awesome end to our Alaskan trip. Thank you!

    Great bus ride!

    John_T, Aug 2025
    Wonderful bus ride. We were picked up at our cruise ship terminal. We made several scenic stops to see beautiful waterfalls, walked on a glacier, went to a wildlife center to see many native animals and learned much of Alaskan history. We also got dropped off at our hotel after dropping off people at the airport. It was a full day tour from getting off our cruise ship at Whittier to Anchorage. Highly recommended.

    Saw whales

    Paula_h, Aug 2025
    Tour guide was very funny, and informative. Enjoyed how excited she got when I saw whales in the bay we stopped at.

    Great way to continue seeing Alaska if you have a late flight

    Nice hike to see the glaciers up close. Flexible guide we had several impromptu stops that were awesome

    That was a great way to spend our disembarkation day. Our group of four shared the van with others. Geoff I was knowledgeable and gave us a great day of touring.

    Great sites. Byron Glacier hike was phenominal. Saw salmon swimming upstream at Potters Marsh. Saw moose with calf at Earthquke Park. Taylor was the best guide.

    Land Transfer and Tour from Whittier Port to Anchorage Airport

    Heather_P, Jul 2025
    Our driver Taylor was great. He took us to many locations along the way from the port at Whittier to the airport at Anchorage. He shared a lot of detailed information about the area as he drove and at each stop along the way. He was a very friendly guy. We would highly recommend using him for this excursion.

    Much more than an airport transfer

    Lyndon_L, Jul 2025
    This was the perfect tour and airport transfer for us as we had a flight late out of Anchorage. Our guide Jeff did a really great job and went above and beyond what was expected. He didn't just drop us off at each sight. He escorted us through and answered allot of questions and gave allot of comentary. We did everything as listed in the tour description plus a few extra sights as we had extra time.

    Wow!!

    Robyn_W, Jul 2025
    This tour was an amazing experience; partly because of the things we saw and partly because Leona was fantastic! The hike to Byron Glacier and then standing on the glacier was truly breathtaking. The AWCC was fantastic if you want to see a lot of animals and learn the stories of how they got there. Potters Marsh bird sanctuary was cool as we saw a bald eagle sitting on her nest. If you’re looking for a safe and informative way to get from Whittier to Anchorage, then this tour is for you! Thanks Leona for a great time!!

    Great way to finish the...

    Great way to finish the cruise and get to Anchorage after a full day of worthwhile activities - awesome hike to the glacier

    Judy_G, Jun 2025
    Amazing transfer excursion with Geoff. What a friendly, informative guy who totally took our lead on how much time to spend on each excursion, which were all terrific. He was great at accommodating our needs, including patience with our delayed disembarkment, bathroom and lunch breaks, and getting us to the airport at the requested time. We highly recommend!!!
