My friend and I booked a trip to Alaska on a whim and booked a combo tour with Denali ATV Adventures and Denali Raft Adventures. I'd never ridden and ATV before, but the team of Zack, Drew and Jesse were patient and helpful to make it a great first experience.
The combo tour comes with the Wilderness Adventure ATV Tour. The tour was about 2 hours. We made 3 stops, one overlooking Lake Healey, one with great views of the back of Denali National Park and one in Dry Creek. The first 2 stops have stellar views of the Alaska Range but the last was likely the most fun as we scoured for gold and jade and got to do some puddle jumping. The guides were not only great ATV teachers, they each gave a bit of geological, historical and local perspective at each stop.
I was nervous going into the tour, but by the end I was sad it was over and would 100% book a longer trip next time. Don't forget to bring cash to tip the guides (we made this mistake - sorry guys!!)!
