Catching a salmon with my bare hands! The van was very clean, the driver had water and snacks on board for both customers, he did his best to show us the sights listed, but it was very windy and raining unfortunately, so we only got out at a few locations, the rest we viewed from inside the van. The other couple with us were Chinese and the driver took time to tell about the sights in English and Chinese.

Touring the conservatory. Our guide had an amazing grasp of the area and its history. We were pleased that we had the guide one on one, it made for a highly informative conversation.

This tour made our transit from Whittier to Anchorage super easy. We were picked up right by cruise exit and dropped off at Anchorage airport. Daniel took us to several sightseeing and wildlife viewing places. It was a informatic and very impressive tour!

A great full day of discovering the beauty of the area instead of riding with the crowds from the cruise ship and waiting around for hours. We walked through Bird sanctuaries and saw bears moose foxes and caribou. Totally worth it.

RAYMOND_M

Daniel picked us up from our cruise on time and took us to 3 different locations to view wildlife on our trip to Anchorage. He was friendly and knowledgeable about the area. He drove safely and supplied my teens with chips and had water for everyone. The Alaskan Wildlife conservation center was a hit for my family! Highly recommend. Daniel delivered us to the anchorage airport and made some recommendations for the downtown area, too.
