👍👍 We had a wonderful experience on our tour. Captain Mac and his deckhands, Brock and Nate were great! They were very informative on the way to see whales and once arrived, we got to see plenty of whales. Captain Mac then spotted some breaching whales in the distance and took us further and we got to...

👍👍 Wow, this tour was amazing. We hit a home run and saw everything; killer whales, porpoises, sea otters, sea lions, bald eagles, a black bear, school of jellyfish and the glacier calving. Even the captain said this was one of the best tours of the season so I wouldn’t expect this every trip. The boat...

👍👍 Probably my favorite thing that I did while in Fairbanks. Everything is family run and you learn about Fairbanks' history relating to Alaskan Native Americans along with the family that runs the tour operation. You get to see sled dogs, moose and see how salmon is processed and get to try some too....

👍👍 Aiden and Lui Mei were fantastic! The glacier walk was amazing but it the trip was made great by our wonderful hosts. They were both incredibly helpful, kind, and enthusiastic. Lui Mei brought great visual aids for the driving tour and shared her love of edible plants with us, even bringing some to...

👍👍 Our captain (Joanna) was the BEST!! Very knowledgeable about everything and customized our trip to us. We got to hang out and watch a humpback whale for almost a half hour (from a respectable distance)! The boat was very comfortable and luckily had inside seating when the wind got a little chilly. I...

👍👍 Incredible tour. The captain was awesome lots of information. Saw humpback whales, orcas, seals, sea lions. The glacier was amazing. If you come to Valdez this is a must.

👍👍 Coldwater Alaska and Curly John made our trip to Homer so incredibly memorable. We saw rafts of sea otters, tufted puffins, an elusive horn puffin, a couple of bald eagles, a sea lion, kittywakes, etc. The best part of the tour was a visit to a hidden fjord where we all experienced solitude and gran...

👍👍 Ben and Keith were amazing guides and Captain Andy steered us to locations in the channels so that we could see the humpback whales. Our hike in the Tongass National Forest was beautiful and easy. Ben and Keith told us all about the area, the history, various plants and got to see the Mendenhall G...

👍👍 Our day started with a greeting from Captain Jamie, she’s friendly, easy going. It feels like you’re going out for a boat tour with a friend. I was so impressed with how clean the boat was, it had light snacks and fresh purified water. Locally owned!! While we were on the water, Captain Jamie showe...

👍👍 We went on the Devil's Canyon Tour with Captain Israel and Alice. It was a terrific trip. Captain Israel is a great host and Alice did a great job narrating throughout the trip. The ride is comfortable and informative, but wait until you enter Devil's Canyon. I have done some white water rafting...

👍👍 My husband and I did the Mendenhall Glacier canoe tour on Sept 11th and it was AWESOME. This was the highlight of my cruise experience to Alaska! Worth every penny! To get up close to the glacier was amazing. Canoeing across the lake and seeing a seal, porcupine, bald eagles, waterfalls and turni...

👍👍 This was a really fun experience, and we saw a lot of wildlife. Initially the windows on the boat were really foggy, so we spent a lot of time wiping them with the squeegee to see. I wish I'd known that we'd actually stop at some of the glaciers, so I didn't need to waste my time doing that. The tim...
