An Interesting Tour

We did not get to see the Aurora, but our guide, Bob was incredibly knowledgeable about the area and the wildlife. Very informative!

Great tour guy Arlen

Arlen the tour guide was great, five star and very well informed and interesting. If you can avoid going on a rainy day do try but it was still enjoyable .

The driver already knew...

The driver already knew that we was not going to see northern lights but didn’t not say nothing to us so we did nothing but drive around, we spent $875 to drive around and the event moved up two hours and a half and one of my guests cannot make it because the time moved up, would like a refund on that one Guest plus a refund for the rest of us because we did not see nothing but drive around

Weather you see it or...

Weather you see it or not! We’re not lucky enough to see the Northern Lights because it’s a cloudy night! But our tour guide Vinny is Amazing!!! Vinny is super nice! Offered us bottled water and candies! Professional, with great sense of humor! He is really in the right job!! In a short period of time you can feel at ease with him! Showed us the Portage glacier at night! The different short walking trails. Sunset at the bay! I can say, you really put a right person that really loved what he is doing! He also shared his experienced and how he loved Alaska after their vacation after 911 that he decided to move in Alaska coming from New York. What a nice experience! Vinny was part of our great memories in Alaska! ! Thank you Vinny!!!
