We took the tour on a Saturday morning with Kevin. He was very informative and entertaining. We made a few stops along the way to take photographs and he told us the history behind the pipeline and the landmarks we stopped at. Kevin was happy to answer all the questions that we had about Alaska. 10 hours seemed like a long tour but it was very enjoyable and didn’t feel like a long time at all. I would absolutely recommend this tour

Jody was an exceptional tour guide who was very knowledgeable about everything to do with Alaska. She was very professional, helpful, proficient and interesting. We learned so much about the history culture, sights and people of Alaska and the ecological environment and landscape. The pipeline was also great to see and to hear about. She was very generous about stopping for pictures, bathroom breaks and lunch and an excellent conversationalist! We felt safe the entire time as a result of her safe driving too. We will miss her! We have traveled around the world, and Jody is in our two top tour guides ever!

The scenery was amazing, and the guide, Stephanie, was extraordinarily knowledgeable, and charming. A bonus was she extended the trip to take us to tangled lakes, with sights at least as good as anything we had seen before, and with a lovely lunch at tangled Lakes Lodge before returning. Her knowledge of and enthusiasm for Alaska enriched the whole experienced.
