Anchorage to Seward Family Trip Aug 2024 If we could give them a higher rating, my kids would give them a 6 rating! Courtney was so knowledgeable and had great stories. Rick kept my kids entertained and knew so much about fish. Both wanted to share their love of Alaska with us. We fell in love with the beauty and magnificence of Alaska! Courtney and Rick went above and beyond to make our trip amazing! Thank you, The Kurtz Family
