OUR GUESTS SAY IT BEST!
"Highly recommend this transport/tour for anyone post-cruise from Seward or Whittier to a night flight out of Anchorage. We had such an awesome time exploring the Turnagain Arm. Our guide was Don, he was such a gem with a wealth of knowledge, fun facts on so many subjects about Alaska and beyond. Super polite and courteous about what kind of experience we wanted from the day! The Byron Glacier hike was closed for a bear feeding nearby. Although Don did not have any trouble filling out our day with photography, restroom and food stops… including fireweed honey ice cream in Girdwood. We really had such a perfect day! The owners were also so accommodating with our last minute booking due to our change of plans. And, graciously provided road trip snacks!!! Five stars from Arizona, definitely pass on the cruise coach for this adventurous experience"
