The communication and hospitality of the company is outstanding. The tour itself- from the moment I was picked up in the driveway of the airbnb I was staying at through being graciously dropped off at the airport, every minute was filled with Alaska's beauty, information about the area, and history. With Ricky as the tour guide I learned more than ever about so many things. He answered all my questions and shared so much about the area. Even with the tour starting out a little rainy, it did not ruin the day. The sights and conversation with Ricky were thoroughly enjoyed! Thank you!!!

Our guide Bob was prompt and courteous. He was a good safe driver and very knowledgeable about Alaska, flora, fauna, sites to see along the way. We saw gorgeous mountains, lakes and rivers with many photo stops along the way. We visited an old road house museum,a small grocery for coffee and bathroom, and had lunch in a small but good restaurant. Bob also lowed time for a couple of stops in local gift shops.
