Awesome and Fun City Tour

We had an amazing time on this tour! Our guide, Vao, was exceptional—knowledgeable, personable, and fun to spend the day with. She shared cool stories about Anchorage, gave us wonderful local insights, and recommended some nice restaurants and places to explore during the rest of our trip. Since it was just our family on the bus, the experience felt incredibly personal and relaxed. Vao made the tour engaging, entertaining, and memorable from start to finish. We couldn't have asked for a better guide and highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Anchorage.

Good tour but do not sit in the back row!

We had to sit in the very back row and large stickers blocked 1/2 of our view. Also very tight in the back row. I’m 5’2” and only had a couple of inches before the seat in front of me. Thankfully my husband and I had the row to ourselves or it would have been very uncomfortable.

Gary was the best tour guide we could have expected to have, super knowledgeable and funny, and we’d easily book with him again!

YMMV, but for us it's a disappointing. The itinerary listed 8 activities and suppose to last 3.5 hrs. but we only visited 4 or 5 locations (some are almost drive-by) and lasted for about 2.5 hrs. Spent more time at the shops than viewing the scenery. Although it's not a big deal, starting time was changed on the day of the tour, and when we arrived at the office there was a confusion among the staffs whether the tour will be cancelled.

Great tour-moose sighting!

A great tour of the city and outlying area. Our tour guide, Melissa was very knowledgeable and personable. We only had 6 people on this tour so it was nice to visit on the bus. Our highlight was seeing a huge moose near the airport! I highly recommend this tour.
