Tour cancelled without any explanation.
These people are ridiculous. They canceled our trip without any explanation and ruined my vacation. I have everything arranged for specific dates, if you are unable to provide the service. Why bother to list it for people to book

Great Tour
Great experience. Adam was our tour guide. I enjoyed the information he shared about Alaska. Chena Springs was incredible. Adam had told us to bring towel, slides, bag for wet clothes. The lockers take 2 quarters only. There are showers, blow dryers and changing areas. The water feels wonderful. Don't forget the ice museum, it was also incredible. Get the apple martini and dont forget to smash your ice glass after you make a wish. We did not use any of the other pools. Once you get in the hot springs you dont want to get out. Highly recommend this tour.
