We had an incredible time on this tour and guided hike from White Raven Tours. Joan did a wonderful job with Alaskan history and her cultural knowledge during the drive to the glacier. Her love for Alaska is very apparent. Hiking on the glacier is a once-in-a-lifetime experience! Our guide Chris was amazing especially if you are interested in any of the science behind glaciers. The local honey and wine was an added treat that set this tour apart from other operators.
Sofie was our tremendous Guide, very informative and fun. Dan was our bus driver and made bus ride great
Although a lot of the glacier had melted, there was still a great amount to explore. It was beautiful! Because I was paired with a group with a child and limited mobility, I didn't get to explore as much as I would have liked. The wine and honey tasting isn't your typical sit down and taste. It's very hime grown and ended up being really cute.
Wonderful experience! I highly recommend this excursion. It truly was a beautiful and unforgettable experience.
Our Matanuska Glacier hike was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience and easily one of the highlights of our trip. From start to finish, everything was exceptional. Our driver set the tone for the day—knowledgeable, kind, and genuinely friendly. She made the journey enjoyable and gave us great insight along the way, which added so much to the overall experience. Once we reached the glacier, our guide completely elevated the adventure. He was fun, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable, making us feel both safe and excited the entire time. He went out of his way to take photos for us, making sure we captured unforgettable moments. Hiking all the way to the top was surreal, and getting the chance to drink fresh water straight from the glacier was something we’ll never forget. To top it all off, we ended the experience playing with the silt and even got a “glacier facial,” which was such a unique and playful way to wrap up the day. Let’s not forget we stopped at The Honey pot for honey and wine tasting and some coffee this place is worth visiting on its own! This was absolutely worth it in every way—an unforgettable adventure that we would recommend to anyone looking for something truly special.
The tour was exactly as advertised. The driver was knowledgeable and helpful. The glacier tour guides were also very helpful.
The guided glacier tour is suitable for a wide range of abilities with some steeper parts. We were provided with crampons and you do not necessarily need snow boots. There was little wind I felt fine without a hat. The honey and wine were a delicious treat after about 2 hrs of walking/hiking on the glacier. For ice cave experience I would wait for June/July:
Glacier hike was an incredible once in a lifetime experience. Dan was an awesome guide!
We had a fantastic trip!! Our guide Dan was friendly and knowledgeable, and made a sure our day was successful. I would definitely book a tour with him again!
I was truly happy to have lived that experience. Every moment felt special, from the breathtaking views along the road to the stunning landscapes that surrounded me. The journey itself was peaceful and inspiring, and hiking all the way to the glacier made it even more unforgettable. Being so close to nature, seeing its beauty up close, and feeling the fresh air made me appreciate the experience deeply. It is something I will always remember with joy.
