The real Anchorage - The guide was knowledgeable and interesting. Everything he told us about the places we drove through or stopped to see were true. We saw parts of Anchorage we would not have seen otherwise.

Great Anchorage Experience - Great tour. Small group, nice vehicle and Dan with White Raven Tours was the best. Was very personable and knowledgeable. Took us to places that were not your typical tourist attractions. We did see a mother moose with her little one. Highly recommended. We enjoyed our morning. Thank you Dan.
