We had an incredible experience on the Matanuska Glacier Hike with Lunch! Our tour guide, Chris, was outstanding. He was extremely knowledgeable about the area and shared fascinating information throughout the entire tour, pointing out interesting features and facts we would have otherwise missed. What really stood out was how much effort Chris made to get to know us and learn about our interests. He tailored the experience accordingly, making sure we spent extra time on the things we enjoyed most. Our glacier hike actually ran longer than scheduled, which we didn't mind at all because it was so engaging and memorable. Chris never rushed us and encouraged us to take in the experience and enjoy the moment. He was also happy to take photos for us, which allowed us to fully enjoy the hike while still capturing great memories. The glacier itself was absolutely breathtaking, and the delicious lunch was the perfect addition to an already fantastic day. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Alaska. Thank you, Chris, for making it such a special experience!

What a great hike and we appreciated Luke as our tour guide! We had a great time and would recommend
Thank you for the review!
Love the tour…. and something that was really nice is that they have ice pants and sunglasses that they allow you to use for free. The tour guy was amazing as well
Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re thrilled you loved the tour and that the extra touches like the ice pants and sunglasses made it even more enjoyable. I’ll be sure to pass your kind words along to your guide—they’ll really appreciate it!
Really comfortable, knowledgeable trip with impressive views and unique experience of glacier. The biggest one which you could reach by car.
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a great review! It was a joy to have you on tour.
This was probably a once in a lifetime experience for me and it was AMAZING. If you’re thinking about it DO IT. The food was amazing and everyone had a great time. It was just our small group on the tour so he even dropped us back off at our place. 10/10
Thank you so much for the 10/10 review! We are thrilled that this was such a memorable, "once in a lifetime" experience for you. It’s great to hear that your group enjoyed the food and that the small-group setting allowed us to add that extra touch with the drop-off. We truly appreciate the high recommendation!
What a great experience!! Our tour guide, Chris, was super well informed and a great story teller!! I was on the edge of my seat on the drive to the glacier when Chris was telling us the story of Togo and his musher. The hike itself was great and Sophie was a great guide. The lunch (included in tour cost) was totally a plus and he even dropped us off at our AirBnB since it was just our group. Totally worth the money and the history behind the Chugach range and the other ranges were keeping me hooked while the sights made me gasp in awe.
Thank you so much for the glowing review! We are thrilled that Chris and Sophie made your glacier hike such a memorable experience. It’s wonderful to hear that the stories of Togo and the history of the Chugach range kept you hooked while the views took your breath away. We’re so glad we could go the extra mile with that AirBnB drop-off, too!
Our guide is professional and friendly. We had a wonderful time in this tour. We learned a lot about the glacier and Alaska. And the lunch was also excellent! I definitely recommend this tour!
Thank you for the wonderful review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the glacier hike and found our guides professional and knowledgeable. It’s great to hear that lunch was a highlight as well. We hope to see you in Alaska again soon!
Chris was the best guide/driver/owner of the Matanuska with lunch. As a native Alaskan born and raised he was a wealth of knowledge about everything Alaska which made the 2 hour drive go by quickly. Once at the glacier Jason was our trained glacier guide for our 2 hours out on the ice. Again a wealth of knowledge about glaciers and Alaska while keeping the group moving about 2.5 miles. The ice itself is spectacular and not to be missed if you're in Anchorage.
Hi Katie, thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the drive with Chris and the trek on the ice with Jason. Providing that local Alaskan perspective is exactly what we aim for. Hope to see you in Alaska again soon!
I joined a glacier walking tour and had a really great experience overall. Our guide clearly loved his job and was incredibly enthusiastic throughout the trip. Along the way, he shared many interesting stories about life in Alaska, which made the journey even more enjoyable. I originally expected lunch to be something simple like a sandwich, but we actually stopped at a restaurant near the glacier where we could try some local Alaskan food—I had a salmon taco, which was a nice surprise. On the way back, the guide was also very helpful in recommending restaurants in the downtown area, which I really appreciated. Once we arrived at the glacier, we were led by a professional glacier guide. Free crampons and snow pants were available to borrow if needed. At the beginning of the tour, we took a sled pulled by an ATV to get close to the glacier. There was some snow and wind, so it’s important to protect your eyes and ears. Our group had more than 10 people, so it was sometimes a bit hard to hear the guide’s explanations if you were walking toward the back. That said, the scenery was absolutely stunning and well worth it. The route itself was not too difficult—if you’re used to daily activities like climbing stairs, it should be manageable. Just make sure to follow the guide’s safety instructions carefully. Overall, it was a memorable experience and a great way to see the glacier up close.
Thank you for the detailed review and for joining us on the glacier tour. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the experience and that your guide’s enthusiasm and stories made the journey even more memorable. We’re also happy the lunch stop and local food were a pleasant surprise, and that the downtown restaurant recommendations were helpful. Thank you for the feedback regarding group size and audibility—this is helpful for us as we continue to improve our tours. Most of all, we’re thrilled the glacier scenery and overall experience made it such a memorable adventure. We hope to welcome you back to Alaska again.
