Great viewpoints during the tour and great tour guide! - The tour was better than we expected. We had a very good time with our guide Jason. He knows very well the area, the geographies, the flora and fauna of the place and he was kind all the time.

Incredible mountain hiking experience! - The views of the mountains and valley were amazing, we took incredible pictures and videos. Our tour guide was Derek and he was a great source of info on the plants, wildlife, and Alaska in general. We absolutely enjoyed every part of the hike and it was great exercise! All in all a win win.

Awesome Hike - Derek is amazing!!! He is very informative and careful to the needs of the guests. He is also very knowledgeable and exactly the guy for the job. He texted us a day before to give us details. Pickup was scheduled and on time. He also helped take some great photos for us to save as memories. Overall the experience was pretty good. Steep hike but The views were incredible.

MUST DO EXCURSION IN DENALI (Derrick and Trinidad are the best!!!!) - We will remember this experience for the rest of our lives. 1) The Logistics - The logistics/communication from Northern Epics was ON POINT. They called to confirm a few days before, texted the day before to reconfirm and showed up exactly on time. Before the trip, the company's owner, Trinidad answered all of my questions and even recommended other activities and restaurants to check out. 2) The Hike - the perfect level of strenuous. Didn't kill us, but definitely was challenging enough that at the end of the experience, we felt like we achieved something. The views were absolutely incredible, and we had plenty of space to stop and take photos. 3) The Guide - In a word, Derrick was AMAZING. Not only was he knowledgeable, but he was super personable and really interesting to talk to. He provided us with the perfect amount of information on plants, geology, Denali and Alaska - he didn't drone on and on, instead found the perfect balance between fun and informative. He even helped us identify edible plants and berries to snack on along the way (make sure you still bring a granola bar or two). In short, we cannot recommend this excursion strongly enough!

Challenging but Rewarding Hike with an Amazing Guide! - I recently completed a challenging but incredibly rewarding hike with Derik as our guide, and I can't recommend it enough! The trail itself was demanding, with steep inclines and rugged terrain, but the stunning views at the top made every step worth it. Derik was phenomenal—super friendly, knowledgeable, and always made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable. He encouraged us when the going got tough and shared fascinating insights about the area, which added a lot to the experience. If you're up for a fun, challenging adventure with an excellent guide, this hike is a must! Don’t forget to bring plenty of water and a good camera to capture the breathtaking scenery. Thanks, Derik, for an unforgettable experience!

A wonderful way to spend an afternoon. - This was such a superb experience. Jade was a very knowledgeable guide. I learned so much; the next day I was able to spot the dane safe berries and plants he pointed out on the hike. The hike itself was wonderful, hard, safe and incredibly rewarding.

Fun AND educational - Trinidad was an excellent host and trail guide. He was very accommodating when our cruise itinerary changed and we had to change our pick up location. He then took us on a very enjoyable and informative hike. He did an excellent job of pacing it to match our abilities. We learned a lot about edible plants and sampled plenty of them. He is very knowledgeable about the local flora and fauna. I highly recommend his tours.

Summit to Sugarloaf was awesome! - Me and my daughter came here wanting to do a fun hike with beautiful views and this was perfect! We had Derek as our guide and he was very fun and kind and helpful. He had great knowledge about many plants and other parts of nature on the trail as well as helped us every part of the way up and down. We ended up making it to the top… however, he had many options for different skill levels. Overall it was an amazing experience for the books!!!! Do it! Bring plenty of water and make sure your shoes have good tread!!! (That would have made our trek a lot faster- several areas we slid and it slowed us down!)
