Cruise Course Changed for the Better!

Melissa was awesome!! We learned so much! Missing our embarkation for our cruise we pivoted to 2 land days in Anchorage before meeting ship in Juneau. This trip was just what we needed:)

It is mostly a van tour....

It is mostly a van tour. It appeared to involve some hiking but that was minimal. The Wildlife Center was good and the scenery was great. Tour company seemed a bit disorganized.

Great tour of the wildlife of Anchorage and local glacier viewing

The pick location was easy to find. The guide was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating to questions and requests. It was great to have an Alaka native providing the tour.
