Beskrivning
Upplev det naturliga underverket i Alaskas Matanuska-glaciär med vår heldagstur. Börja med en bekväm upphämtning från centrala Anchorage, ger du dig ut på en naturskön tvåtimmars resa, och kör genom landskap med höga berg. Längs vägen stannar vi vid lokala matställen och erbjuder dig chansen att köpa lunch. När du når glaciären kommer en erfaren guide att utrusta dig med stegjärn, vilket gör glaciärnavigeringen säker och hanterbar. Sedan transporterar ett terrängfordon dig till glaciärens bas. Här ger du dig av till fots för att utforska glaciärens isiga vidd, upptäcka fascinerande isformationer och få inblick i glaciärens naturhistoria från din kunniga guide. Efter denna oförglömliga upplevelse åker vi tillbaka till Anchorage, för att säkerställa en bekväm avresa i centrum. Denna turné är en perfekt blandning av äventyr, utbildning och naturskönhet, och erbjuder ett djupgående möte med en av Alaskas mest imponerande glaciärer.

Resplan
Matanuska Glacier
Matanuska Glacier är en dalglaciär i den amerikanska delstaten Alaska. Med sina 27 miles lång och 6 miles bred är det den största glaciären som kan nås med bil i USA. Bilresan till är cirka 2 timmar vardera riktning med 4 timmar totalt längs den natursköna Glenn Hwy. Under vintersäsongen kan starttiden för turen variera för att tillgodose de säkraste körförhållandena för våra förare och gäster. Din Guide kommer att kommunicera med dig innan avresedagen för turen.
Glenn Highway
Glenn Highway National Scenic Byway följer en stig uthuggen av gamla glaciärer. Följer den flätade Matanuskafloden i över halva dess längd.
Palmer
Under turnén kommer vi att stanna i Palmer Alaska och ge dig tid att köpa lunch i en lokal livsmedelsbutik. Bara 45 minuter från Anchorage har denna pittoreska lilla stad en jordbrukskänsla. Börja ditt äventyr i detta "land" på Palmer Visitor Information Center. Glöm inte att hämta en stadsvandringskarta när du är där.

Great experience
It is a great experience. The glacier is amazing to see. Our guide Frank was awesome and informative. It would be nice to split into kids and no kid groups, but overall it was great.

Matanushka Walk
Excellent arrangements ...from pickup at Anchorage to the actual hike on the glacier ... They arranged for a separate guide for our family to handle the knee injury of my husband and do a slower and safer walk on the ice ... Grateful for that ...

The hike on the Matanuska...
The hike on the Matanuska Glacier was super fun. The two guides (Emory and Dominic) who took us were very knowledgeable and helpful when we had to cross a few truckier spots. The views are amazing but it is an active hike - not for anyone unsteady on their feet. The drive out there was beautiful and we had a fantastic driver - Rexy - who was professional, friendly and offered lots of great information and history of the area. All in all, it was a really great excursion and I would highly recommend making it part of your trip to this area of Alaska

Not a reputable company. Owner is a jerk and not an honest person.
Owner refused to provide a refund after the company canceled a scheduled tour. Told blatant lies about services the company supported to offer and when I asked for proof would not provided. Needed to file a legal complaint with CC company to force them to return the funds. There are many companies that provide similar services, I would recommend that you try another.
Operatörens svar
We are sorry that you were dissatisfied with your experience. To clarify, you did not communicate with the owner regarding this reservation. Your interactions were with our reservations and sales team, who worked to assist you as quickly as possible. When the scheduled tour could not operate and we were unable to reach you by phone or text, the owner arranged for someone to personally greet you and direct you to an alternate transportation provider for your trip to the Matanuska area. Our goal was to ensure that your travel plans could continue with as little disruption as possible. Regarding the refund, your request was processed as soon as we learned that you had paid the alternate transportation provider directly. In most cases, our backup transportation partners bill us directly, eliminating any out-of-pocket expense for the guest. Because that did not occur in this instance, a refund was promptly issued once we were made aware of the situation. While it is not uncommon for tour operators to have minimum participation requirements for longer excursions, we made every effort to find an alternative solution rather than simply canceling your plans. We believe this demonstrates our commitment to customer service and to helping guests enjoy their Alaska experience. For these reasons, we believe portions of your review are inaccurate. Your refund was issued, and every effort was made to ensure you were able to continue with your planned excursion. We strive to provide reliable service and responsive customer support, and we wish you safe travels in the future.

Unique and amazing
My wife and I really enjoyed this tour -- one of the highlights of our trip. You feel like you're in another world, unlike anything you've ever experienced. Walking through each crevasse, with huge walls of ice on either side, is exhilarating (and no problem for someone claustrophobic like me, either, somehow). It was also easier and less strenuous for older folks like us (ages 72 and 71) than we expected. We got around quite well actually, and the few times we had to move more slowly and carefully, the guide and the younger people in the group were patient and helpful. Each person is given thick elastic bands that wrap snugly around your boots, with metal spikes attached, and most of the time you're walking on packed snow on top of the ice, hearing and feeling crunch, crunch, crunch, so you feel very secure and have good traction. They've carved steps into the surfaces going up and down hills, making climbs and descents much easier also. We were able to stop and take beautiful photos all along the way, and it was just gorgeous. It's a two-hour ride each way, from Anchorage, but we stopped a few times to pick up food, use the restroom, or take more photos. A great day and we're so glad we did it! You will be too.
