What Travelers Say About their Guided Alaska Tours

Kenai Fjords Glacier Lodge was incredible. Everywhere we stayed actually -- each and every place. I really appreciated the regular contact from AdventureSmith, and all the materials you sent were spot-on in terms of preparing for the trip.

Every detail was well-organized and carefully planned, so the complexities of traveling by small bus to boat, back to van, transfer to Kantishna bus, transfer to railroads all worked seamlessly and flawlessly. The guides--all of them, but especially our trip guide and driver--were very knowledgeable, interesting, and fun!

This was certainly one of the top three trips we have taken in our 35 years we have been married. I'm waiting a while to put it into perspective, but it is probably the top one. We got to see beautiful scenery, wildlife, and learned a lot about the places and animals we were seeing.

The destinations were great, but our guide added the most. No skill or talent missing. More than anything else, she made this vacation.

The whole staff were wonderful. Knowledgeable, accommodating, personable... The group dynamics were wonderful and truly enhanced the whole experience.

The trip was amazing in every way. Kenai Fjords Glacier Lodge was incredible. Everywhere we stayed actually -- each and every place. The Denali Park Road was an incredible experience; it was beautiful in the rain on the way in and in the sun on the way out. There were no downsides to the trip. Even the weather cooperated beautifully.

Accommodations Review

All accommodations were excellent.  Some were more rustic, but super comfortable rustic. 

Meals Review

The food was outstanding, and the snacks provided on the bus rides were so thoughtful. Early morning coffee was available at all the lodges, and the meals were all excellent. I loved all the seafood options the most.

Crew & Guides Review

Leigh L. was outstanding. She was thoughtful, thorough, informed, unflappable, attentive, and super upbeat. The information she provided as we drove was very valuable in that she taught us so much about Alaska. Her organization made everything work smoothly, and if any small problem presented itself she handled it without missing a beat.

AdventureSmith Explorations Review

I really appreciated the regular contact from AdventureSmith, and all the materials you sent were spot-on in terms of preparing for the trip. 

Traveler Advice

Do the trip!  It will be the trip of a lifetime in so many ways.

Featured in this Traveler Review

  • Alaska Coast to Denali Adventure
  • Kenai Fjords Glacier Lodge
  • Seward Windsong Lodge
  • Talkeetna Lodge

Every detail was well-organized and carefully planned, so the complexities of traveling by small bus to boat, back to van, transfer to Kantishna bus, transfer to railroads all worked seamlessly and flawlessly. The guides--all of them, but especially our trip guide and driver--were very knowledgeable, interesting, and fun!  We expected the lodges to be in lovely locations, which they were, and the food was extraordinary.

Beautiful lodges, well-equipped for the outdoor adventures, which included canoes and kayaks in Kenai or mountain bikes in Kantishna.  It was really nice that the Kenai Lodge had giant boots and very water-proof pants for all. Our primary interest was to see the wildlife and natural beauty of the Kenai Peninsula and Denali National Park, and we saw everything we had hoped for, and more. The Kenai Glacier Wilderness Lodge delighted us with its isolated lagoon and Pedersen Glacier, otters, seals, black bear and eagles. The road through Denali to Kantishna provided us with many sightings of caribou, moose, 5 grizzlies, a red fox with a squirrel in its mouth, and the lodge was charming. We did not spend much time in Seward or Talkeetna, but the accommodations in both were great.

Lovely little appetizers were a nice treat before dinner. All meals were outstanding!

Leigh L. and driver Jeff were fantastic!  Well-prepared, interesting, fun, patient, knowledgeable, warm: they made the trip even more memorable and special! We all hated to say goodbye to them at the end of the trip! The guides in Kenai (Taylor, Riley, Randy, Rainy, Dina, Mia,) were all enthusiastic, interesting, well-prepared, and willing to quickly look up anything on the slight chance that we asked an unusual question.

Emmet, in Kantishna, spoke of his father's winning Iditarod teams, and showed us how the dogs train in the summer time. His presentation was really interesting and fun.  Everyone was very engaging and clearly loves being there!

We were not able to spend more than 10 days, but if you can stay longer in Denali it would help to break up the long travel days!  Be prepared for any kind of weather since it can change quickly.

Note that this review also includes comments on the traveler’s  Prince William Sound Discovery cruise with AdventureSmith Exploration s.

This was certainly one of the top three trips we have taken in our 35 years we have been married. I'm waiting a while to put it into perspective, but it is probably the top one. I will be recommending the Discovery cruise in particular to my travelling friends! Camp Denali and especially the Discovery crew went out of their way to personalize our experience, make sure we were taken care of, and adjusting daily itineraries to account for the weather. We got to see beautiful scenery, wildlife, and learned a lot about the places and animals we were seeing.

We visited Alaska on our honeymoon 35 years ago and wanted to get back to see Denali and tidewater glaciers (we saw Glacier Bay from large cruise ship). We were among 20 people on the cruise ship outside when that ship visited Glacier Bay, and found the focus on entertainment, shopping, and eating was not our style. The Discovery cruise bypassed everything we didn't care for on the large cruise ship and packed our days with activities and sights that made us want to return to Alaska. The personal service and camaraderie were an added bonus!

We did not anticipate the convenience of the short bus trips at Camp Denali to the daily adventures. We saw plentiful wildlife each day with much shorter drives and were able to get out of the bus for extended appreciation of the park on foot.

Camp Denali - rustic, but nice cabins ("glamping"); wonderful lodge.

Camp Denali - excellent main courses; more emphasis on "health-food" for side dishes than we cared for.

Camp Denali - all guides were very knowledgeable about general interest topics, plus at least one specialty.

Transportation Review

Transportation went smoothly.

Pre-trip communication was timely and accurate. Your packing lists were spot-on. We combined two of the AdventureSmith offerings into a single trip. I usually book trips on my own, after exhaustive internet research. This trip involved combining two trips with limited start and end dates. AdventureSmith helped ensure that the trips were compatible and also worked with me to adjust the itineraries for some self-directed travel at the beginning of the trip. I also appreciate the reassurances that AdventureSmith provided when wildfires threatened some of the transportation plans. They assured me that they were in daily contact with the service providers and that backup plans were available in case there were any disruptions.

DO IT! We spent three years vacation budget on this trip. And it was worth it! The five day trip on the Discovery was a good length. I would have enjoyed an additional day. I think I would have been disappointed with a 3-day/2-night trip, in that it would have been hard to get in enough of the activities that we enjoyed so much. (Like eating an appetizer when you want a full meal).

  • Camp Denali Adventure
  • Camp Denali
  • Prince William Sound Discovery
  • M/V Discovery

The destinations were great, but our guide -- Lena -- added the most, I think.  She was professional when plans had to change because of uncooperative weather, thoughtful in presenting us with certificates at the end, extremely knowledgeable about the local culture, natural history, geography, etc. And she dealt with the oddballs in our group much better than I could have. Horseback riding was possibly the most adventurous day, though the helicopter ride to the dogsleds was a close second.

I wish we'd had more time to hang out in our cabins, and do self-guided adventures from them.  Particularly desirable: for a couple to take out a kayak or canoe and paddle around without need for a guide.

Almost every meal was very, very good. 

Lena: A++  Lena is complete.  No skill or talent missing. More than anything else, she made this vacation.

Bring a waterproof cover for your camera. Do a few 5 mile hikes before the trip.

  • Ultimate Alaska Adventure
  • Kenai Backcountry Lodge
  • Kenai Riverside Lodge

Alaska Wildland Adventures is an incredible company and offer an A++ experience. Christine and her team were perfect. Knowledgeable, accommodating, personable...  I would certainly travel with them again. We also enjoyed the group and we had a great time with the other guests. There were 17 of us with a nice mix of young adults. The group dynamics were wonderful and truly enhanced the whole experience.

Loved them all, particularly the Backcountry Lodge.

Food was great.

Christine was incredible.  As I mentioned above, her whole staff and the staff at the lodges were wonderful. I would offer a particular shoutout to Evan and Kelly.  They both added that something special to the experience.

Be prepared for the cold and rain.

Discover Alaska with Alaskans for an up close and personal experience.

Alaskan Tour Guides uses over 40 years of resident Alaskan experience toward making your touring of Alaska a favorite lifetime memory. As your trusted Alaska tour company, we give special attention to details so each traveler has the opportunity to fully enjoy and appreciate the adventure, the spectacular views, the rich culture and loads of fun. Benefits of small group travel along with our company’s extensive knowledge and understanding of travel in Alaska is the key to our ability of making the most of your Alaska tour experience.

Small group travel provides greater flexibility in allowing us to accommodate individual interests within the tour schedule. The smaller buses allow our groups to stop more easily, where most large coaches cannot. Wildlife viewing is made possible at every opportunity. It also allows us to access some special destinations and activities away from those larger group tours.

Our guides are year-round residents who use their experience to educate and entertain throughout your travels. They have interesting stories to share about growing up or living in Alaska. Many of our reviews highly regard our guides’ knowledge and hospitality.

Don’t just come to see Alaska, discover, participate, and learn more about this magical place with Alaskan Tour Guides.
