Hiking the Matanuska glacier with a professional like Bill made the experience very smooth and thrilling. Glacier views throughout the walk were spectacular. Bill helped us all gear up for the activity, guided us throughout the ~2-hour hiking adventure, stopped at various spots on the hike, and shared tonnes of information about glaciers. He also took us for lunch later in a decent restaurant overlooking the glaciers. The round trip to the glaciers was fun, too - we had pretty interesting conversations with Bill about Alaska while on the road trip. I'd highly recommend Bill and the tour company for this activity.
