The people who run this excursion are great- really personable, interesting, and fun to talk with. However, its telling that my favorite part of the excursion was the time when we returned to the trailhead and chatted around a fire pit and walked out on the tundra. My fiance was really excited to see the stampede trail, and the vehicle that we took was kind of cool; however, the trees and brush came right up to the sides of hte vehicle, so you couldnt see much, and the ride didnt get very far along the trail. You never see any river or bus.

Hello Blake, thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us! It's great to hear you had an awesome time on the last part of your tour at our Tundra Pavilion. This time of year we even get to pick blueberries out on the tundra hike. For the safety of our guests and guides, we refrain from doing river crossings. We make every attempt to share that we will not make it to the bus, but I do apologize if a different impression was given. Safety is our upmost priority and we make sure to avoid having a similar outcome to the “Into the Wild” story. The time out on the tundra is a key part of our tour and it is wonderful you found our team personable and fun. We hope you had a wonderful trip to Alaska and thanks again for joining us on an adventure through the Alaskan bush!
