Had an unbelievable time with Casey and Grant on the canoe and glacier trek tour. Couldn’t have asked for better guides - they were super knowledgeable and made the trip so much fun. Would absolutely recommend doing the tour. But definitely request Grant and Casey as your guides 😀

I am sooo happy that we took this tour, both of our guide were very friendly and experienced. They made our journey more enjoyable. I am trying to remember the girl's name but....she was the best.

Liquid Alaska might be a small company but their operation is top notch and you can tell by quality of their gear as well as their people. We took the Glacier Ice Adventure Tour (as a family of 4) and we had an almost full canoe to do the trip. Joey and Spencer were our guides and they were really passionate about their job. They taught us plenty of things about the surrounding area and were sharp focused when dealing with safety. We took a very long walk on the ice (we paddled fast) and Spencer made sure we got to see all the main features of the glacier (including a small ice cave!!). The canoeing itself was not bad and in spite of the hazy weather (smoke from wild fires) we could enjoy some of the views from the water. The company provides water and snacks for the trip and they finish it up with a hot beverage. They provide all the equipment as well so no worries about technical gear. Another way they showed their true professionalism was when our daughter forgot her reading glasses inside the dry bag they provide for the trip. We found out on our way back to the ship and we were getting close to our departure time. Joey called his manager and he not only found the glasses, he also drove back to the dock to deliver them on time. Thanks for saving the day!!!
