One of the best excursions we did while in Anchorage. Our guide Hunter was fantastic and provided knowledge and entertainment throughout the trip.
Aaron was an amazing tour guide and even stopped for us to see a moose up close on the way to the glacier! He was very knowledgeable and accommodating. Great experience and definitely worth it.
Excellent experience with amazing views. The drive was a little long but our tour guide James made it fun.
James our tour guide gave a great tour. The tour included a pick up from the convention center and a ride to the glacier view . On the way, James provided many tidbits about the Alaskan landscape and generally very fun to be around. On the glacier hike James also doubled up as an excellent photographer and provided some great photography tips. Overall a great experience .
Hunter was SUPER nice, we really enjoyed his silly jokes and enthusiasm on the trip!
We had so much fun with the tour! We were a family of 9 and had private pick up which was very convenient since we had little ones ages 3,4 and 8! Our tour guide Aaron was great! We learned a lot from him! He was on time, fun, friendly and very passionate about what he does. We would definitely book with this operator again!!
Great tour guide fitted in well with passengers. Tick off of bucket list. Played great music on return trip home.
This glacier hike was truly one of the most awe‑inspiring outdoor experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment we stepped onto the ice, I was struck by the immense scale and raw beauty of the landscape. The route itself was well paced and incredibly rewarding. We loved our guide and even did the Wilderness and Wildlife Tour on a different day with PicTours Alaska which was also great!
