Our trip was absolutely fabulous. Matthew (with 2 ts) was informative, funny and so friendly. The pics he took of us were great and we were clinging onto every word as he spoke so fluently about everything Alaska has to offer. Looking forward to the next tour already.

Ina was fabulous. She knew a lot and gave us scenic stops for pictures. She also is great at taking pics and snapped images for a lot of us on the trip. It was definitely worth what we paid for the tour.
