Awesome tour - Awesome tour guide - Melissa was a wonderful and very helpful tour guide. She did a wonderful job explaining facts and history of the area. She also took us to some wonderful places and assisted in taking photographs. We did not feel rushed and we had a great time, enjoying the experience. I highly recommend this tour. The sausage and chocolate was delicious.

Winter wonderland with Melissa - It was snowing heavily so it was beautiful even though visibility was restricted. But we got to see a bull moose. But it was Melissa who made it so wonderful, homely and fun in a really comfortable environment. Irwin

Scenic tour - This tour provided several scenic areas around anchorage and a couple of nice food sampling shops. Going in October offered pretty views of the fall colors. Melissa was a great guide!

Tasty Tour with a good amount of things to see and TASTE! - Melissa was amazing. This is a nice tour hitting many of the places around town I wanted to go all in one package. Melissa had good stories and recommendations for non-tour events. We sampled smoked salmon, reindeer sausage, got souveniers, got a ULU knife (at your own expense) and saw a moose in the wild! Affordable and easy going. Highly recommended.

Anchorage City Tour and Tastes of Reindeer Sausage - Melissa, our driver, was fantastic and was so knowledgeable about Anchorage and the surrounding areas. The only objection I would have as we didn’t need to do the stores. I know it was on the itinerary, but it felt like we were there to buy and support the shops. Other than that, Melissa made sure we saw a lot of interesting places and even a few moose!!

Souvenir/Shopping Tour - About 2/3 of this tour was taking us to 3 spots to buy stuff. The Ulu knife factory, Alaska Sausage & Seafood and the Chocolate factory. It wasn’t much of an educational city tour. Why should we have to pay $70 for them to take us shopping???

Inconsiderate - Less than 24 hrs before my tour I got an email that it was cancelled. I was getting on an airplane to get to Anchorage so my first day in the city left me with no tour and no plans. I attempted to get on another tour but it was too late to book. They said they didn’t have enough people to do the tour. They should have canceled a couple of days before or did it anyway for one or two people as other tours did under the same circumstances. Bad customer service and not a way to treat tourists on vacation in their city.
