"This was hands down the best trip I’ve ever taken! Liquid Alaska Canoe Tours delivered an unforgettable experience. Our guides, Shayla and Ryley, were beyond incredible. Not only were they super knowledgeable about the area, but they were also some of the funniest guides I've ever had. Shayla had us laughing the whole time with her hilarious jokes, and Ryley’s sense of humor made the trip even better. Their energy and enthusiasm were contagious, making the canoe ride and glacier hike so much more fun. The views were stunning, but Shayla and Ryley truly made this trip unforgettable. Highly recommend!"

This Mendenhall Glacier Ice Adventure was an experience of a lifetime! Canoeing across the lake and experiencing the majestic beauty of the waterfalls, the low lying clouds on the lake and the mountains was breathtaking! Shayla and Justin, our amazing and knowledgeable guides were the BEST!! They made the arduous trek across the lake and up to the glacier in the rain, a fun and exciting adventure that we will always remember! We even spotted a bald eagle and were serenaded to! Thank you Justin and Shayla!! # best guides ever.

Tour was great, we met Biko at the meeting point and took a 25 min van ride to the park where we got geared up with a life jacket, waterproof pants/jacket, boots, and gloves. Everything is provided and in great condition so you don’t have to worry about getting wet. We then got briefed by Jordan on how to properly paddle and some safety items before getting into the canoe to paddle towards the glacier. We had plenty of breaks on the way to rest and to listen to Jordan’s interesting tidbits of information and dad jokes lol. Taking a canoe to the glacier is definitely a unique experience, we were able to also hike up pretty close. The colors are so vivid that it seems unreal. I definitely recommend this tour, both Biko and Jordan were great tour guides that were both very knowledgeable. Make sure to go soon before the glacier recedes too far!
