キャストナー氷河洞窟アドベンチャーフェアバンクス発サマーハイキング

Our guide Tony was awesome. He provided great information throughout our entire journey. He was able to guide us over some challenging terrain to get us to the cave. We had an awesome day

The hike was by far the highlight of our trip, looking forward to coming back in the winter to experience the full realm.

We thoroughly enjoyed the hike to the majestic Castner Glacier and super grateful for the expert knowledge and experience of our tour guide (Antonio) for our hike after the fresh snow!

The experience itself is good and the guide is knowledgeable, but it's way too expensive and time consuming for what you get to see. Lunch is not provided though you do stop at a big gas station for a short break midway through the drive to the glacier. You're taken in a minivan, not some sort of tour bus. "Snow shoes" are all that's provided to you, which are just a little platform added to your shoes, not like an actual pair of shoes or boots that are good for snow Glacier is receding so presumably much less impressive now than it once was (pictures on the internet look better than it does now) and the hike was a bit too long and gets monotonous, though quite beautiful with the snowy mountains all around.. You just go to one ice cave which was nice but not that big or interesting for the most part, and which takes about 30 minutes or so to walk to on quite a narrow path. Recommend you bring good shoes, but it's bot that hard of a 'hike', moreso just felt like a whole day excursion with not much payoff. If you can get someone local to take you out there for cheaper I'd maybe recommend that. But this trip is not worth the investment in my opinion

We had an incredible time on the Castner Glacier Ice Cave tour! Our guide was exceptionally professional and knowledgeable, sharing so much fascinating information about the glacier and the local area that we never would have known otherwise. On top of the great insights, our guide was also a fantastic photographer and helped us capture some truly stunning photos to remember the trip by. It was a seamless and joyful adventure from start to finish. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Fairbanks!

The glacier was amazing and our guide assured we were comfortable with the hike. He was so friendly and helpful. We had a great time. It was an amazing experience !

Nice guide, beautiful scenery, very safe to walk and visit. Be ready for a long road trip, but it’s fun!

Our tour guide from Vip Northern Lights (Tony) was knowledgeable about the wild life and the terrains. He loves his job! Both Tony and Nate made the long drive to the destination educational and entertaining. Once at the destination, it was a nature’s magic.. amazing!!! Also picked up from our hotel was very promptly on time.

The drive along Richardson Hwy was very beautiful. Our guide Tony gave us lots of interesting information about the scenery & Alaska. We stopped along the way for photos in front of the snow covered mountains. The hike started out through snow & trees. Then we walked across a frozen river onto a compacted snow trail. Walking along the trail was like walking on concrete so it was easy but if you stepped off the trail into the deep snow it was nearly impossible to walk. As everywhere you look is white it’s easy to step off the trail unless you look down where you are stepping or follow the footsteps of the person in front of you. Seeing the cave is amazing. At first glance it looks like rock. But then you realize the walls of the cave are covered in a thick layer of ice. Be careful, inside the cave it’s very slippery. I won’t spoil the surprise of what’s waiting for you as you step further inside the cave and look up at the ceiling. I didn’t know about it before hand so I was in awe. The hike was hard not going to lie. Tony was a great guide and shared his gloves with my grandson when his weren’t doing a good job keeping his hands warm. It was -14 to -16 degrees during our walk dress appropriately.

Definitely recommend, and note that every glacier is different! Tony was a great guide and even gave great local tips and information of the geography of the areas we went too.
