Riding the tram and enjoying the magnificent views. Taking the local shuttle made a more intimate experience.

I came to visit a friend in Alaska for 2 weeks in May and we did this on 23rd May 2018. We met our tour guide, Mike I think his name was, in Anchorage and since there were only 2 of us, he took us to a few more places than advertised. Mike was absolutely outstanding and really went the extra mike to make sure we got to see a lot. He dropped us off at the tram, where we took it up to the top. We took advantage of being able to go up and back down all day for just $30 so went up and down a couple of times. We went out in the snow, had lunch in the restaurant and looked round the gift shop. The views were absolutely fantastic! We managed to spend a good 4 hours up there. Everything was very well organised, especially getting to and from Anchorage. Special mention to Mike again! Great job and great tour, thoroughly recommend!
