Absolutely incredible experience canoeing/hiking around the Mendenhall glacier. If you’re looking to add some true adventure into your Alaska trip with amazing payoffs for your physical efforts this is the tour for you. Baxter (Braxton 😉) and Jason were knowledgeable and passionate guides that truly made this tour one we’ll never forget. Can’t recommend this tour enough!

Unreal! Absolutely stunning views w incredible guides Jason and Baxter! Extremely informative on the history of the glacier, rocks, surroundings and how to remember the names of 5 salmon just by the illustration of our hand. If I remember correctly it’s thumb-chum, index finger is like poke eye so it’s the sockeye, middle is the king salmon, wedding finger is the silver salmon and pinkie finger is the pink salmon. It’s like an educational field trip but w the most breathtaking views! Trip of a lifetime we will never forget!

We have cruised to Alaska twice and this was our favortie tour. Casey and Ryan were amazing. The experience of paddling to a glacier and then walking next to it was one we will always remember. The pictures we took and share do not due the tour justice. You have to be there to completley understand how awesome it was. Big shout out to Casey and Ryan...thank you guys!
