This was by far the best part of our trip to Alaska and our tour guides, Ben and Ryan, are responsible for that. They picked us up from the cruise docks and took us to the lake where they already had all of the necessary equipment to keep us safe and dry. I bought waterproof hiking shoes- don’t make that mistake. They provide you with shoes, waterproof pants and jackets. They even had dry bags for us to store our valuables. From the moment we met them they were providing interesting facts about Alaska and our adventure (and cracking jokes along the way). You could truly sense their passion and excitement to share the amazing experience with us. They are wilderness medicine certified and guided us the whole way up the glacier. I always felt safe with them. They stopped for us to take pictures and even volunteered to take pictures for us so we wouldn’t have just all selfies. When we got back, they had snacks and warm beverages waiting for us. They were the best! The canoe did not require much experience but it was a good 1-2 miles. You are rowing with 11 other people though and they take breaks to point out and enjoy the wildlife along the way. The trek up the glacier isn’t too bad either because they give you spikes to put on your shoes. I would say moderate intensity. Not suggested for people with bad joints. The sights you will see are surreal. We got to see glacier caves, streams, moulins & crevasses. The ice was a beautiful blue. It’s a trip you will never forget and you must take it with Liquid Alaska. They made the adventure amazing! Thanks Ryan and Ben!

Thank you- we really appreciate it. We know that packing for Alaska can be quite a challenge which is why we provide everything you need to throughly enjoy yourself: Rain boots, rain pants, rain jacket, paddling gloves, dry bag, walking stick and all necessary equipment. We ask that you dress in layers, wear warm socks, and bring a hat and gloves if it is cold. Our tour does not require experience, but guests do need to be physically fit.
Ben and Ryan are fantastic and we are honored to be called the BEST part of your Alaskan Vacation.
