The perfect tour guide! - Chris was very personable, brilliantly aware and versed on the history of Alaska. We chose the small group tours for this exact reason and it felt like traveling with family! Thank you Chris for being our perfect tour guide!

Bears and Beers! Oh my! - What a great day! Chris gave us a really unique experience with fantastic views and amazing storytelling. We loved getting close to the animals - this is probably going to be the closest we'll ever get to bears and wolves. Lunch and beer sampling at the brewery was such a nice way to end the trip especially with the new mascot! So adorable!!! Thank you Chris!

Rainy and worth it! - Seeing the Brown Bear up close while elk bugled and a huge V of migrating geese honked overhead. Magical. Also, baby Muskox. C'mon! Where else could this happen? Up close viewing of Explorer glacier and distant sights of beluga whale and Dall Sheep. Yes, please.

Ask for Tim! - We had a great time on our tour! Our guide, Tom, had so much knowledge about the area… history of the towns, the parks, all of the plant and animal life, and the people. He was a wonderful guide! The conservancy was a very informative, and although we had some very rainy weather, Tom was wonderful about taking us from spot to spot and making sure we had all the info we needed between stops. The work they do there is inspiring and definitely worth a stop. Girdwood Brewery was also awesome! Very kiddo and doggo friendly and we’d go back on our own to “sample” some more! Thanks for a great afternoon!
