Kevin was an amazing guide, and the tour itself was beautiful! We are struggling to figure out how to describe the incredible views to our family back home in Ohio. Kevin was knowledgeable, friendly, and fun, and you can clearly see that he prioritizes safety. This was our favorite part of our trip to Alaska.

This was a wonderful excursion which i would recommend to anyone! we went all the way to the glacier and spent sometime wandering around. They took care of everything and we had extra time to run some fun lines in and around the sand dunes. Jeremiah took really good care of our small group and I would recommend as he was the most experienced guide. Dont think about it, do it!! it was awesome and I hope to do this adventure sometime again in the future.

Had a day layover in anchorage and wanted to get the most out of my sons and my first trip to Alaska. Called and booked a tour with this outfit and would do it again tomorrow if we could. Highly professional, extremely knowledgeable on the area, and great people to spend your day with. Thank you Katie for a tour of a lifetime!

My brother loves ATVs so I booked it. I have never been on an ATV. Well I think I am ruined for life as it seems this is the best ATV course ever. Jeremiah was our tour guide and he was excellent. I felt the experience was Indiana Jones meets the Jungle Cruise meets Jurassic Park. If you want adventure and amazing Alaska nature, this tour is for you!

Amazing time of adventure for our family group ages 7-73! Jeremiah and Katie geared us up, gave instructions and off we went….into mud, water, bumpy trails and glacier views. A bull moose briefly ran beside one of our vehicles!
