What To Expect

Kenai Fjords National Park

At the edge of the Kenai Peninsula lies a land where the ice age lingers. Nearly 40 glaciers flow from the Harding Icefield, Kenai Fjords’ crowning feature. Wildlife thrives in icy waters and lush forests around this vast expanse of ice. Native Alutiiq relied on these resources to nurture a life entwined with the sea.

Had an absolutely amazing time on this trip. Brandon is a very experienced guide, from keeping a measured pace so that we weren't too tired to explore the glacier, going over safety again and again, and again, and having lots of information about the region and the ice! We had a wonderful time. Would highly recommend this trip to anyone who's slightly adventurous. I've also taken a helicopter to a glacier and walked around. Don't think that because you've seen one glacier you've seen them all. They are all different, just like people (and dogs :).

What an amazing experience. The hike was long and strenuous, but if you have hiking experience and endurance, it’s very doable. There are great views of the glacier along the hike and views of the trees and mountains. I was there in time to see the leaves turn orange/yellow. Brandon was a phenomenal tour guide. He was knowledgeable about the trees/plants and the wildlife and answered all the questions the group had. And he was great at spotting bears and goats in the mountains. Being on the glacier was an incredible experience. I was lucky enough to have a fearless group so we went all over the glacier and took countless pictures. Brandon was nice enough to take a group photo to remember the occasion. Definitely recommend the tour!!
