What travellers are saying
- Frank G1 contributionGreat Tour. Our guide Patrick did an excellent job in all aspects. Love seeing all the wildlife at AWCC, the treats and water provided by PicTours were a great bonus.Written 26 March 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- explorevipRound Rock, TX77 contributionsThe trolley tour around Anchorage is a great way to see everything and let someone else do the driving.
Our guide was fantastic and made the whole experience such a great time. We went all around town and stopped along the way to sightsee and shop.Written 23 March 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I thought it was just a tour of chocolate but we got to experience many different local shops with samples and lots of commentary about the area and it's history.Written 14 March 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- dsibellPortland2 contributionsJames was an excellent host and guide (and very safe driver). We had a very relaxed experience, learned a ton about this area. It was a lot of fun, and very comfortable.Written 25 March 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Ricky1 contributionI had a fantastic time on the 907 tour with Lori today! She was right on time and made everyone feel welcome with her friendly attitude. Lori shared great insights about the Matanuska Glacier, which really enhanced the experience. Her enthusiasm and helpfulness made the tour unforgettable. If you’re looking for a guide for the Matanuska Glacier, Lori is the one to go with. Thanks for a great day, Lori.Written 16 March 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- MARK H1 contributionThe trip was as advertised. It was nice to get a bigger view of the perimeter of the city.
Mountains were glorious. The stops at the interesting Ulu factory, and samples at Wild Berry Products & chocolates, Alaska Sausage & Smoked Salmon were delicious. Turnagain Arm Drive was beautiful. Seeing the seaplanes at Hood Canal was fun. We actually saw a moose! We had a small group in the van so it was quite comfortable. Our guide was great and loved her job and was enthusiastic about living in beautiful Alaska! thank you!Written 26 March 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I brought four co-workers on this trip and they were amazed at the beautiful scenic views that were just amazing. Had opportunity to take lots of pictures of mountains, glacier’s and wildlife. The tour guide “Matt” was great and very knowledgeable, friendly and gave a lot of unknown information of the area, history and wildlife. Believe me, I will be back again. Every trip is a little different as the views without as much snow this year was a whole new experience!Written 23 March 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Geoff D1 contributionWe took the trolley tour in Anchorage. The driver was quite informative and humorous. The tour gave a great overview of the city and helped us see that the city is quite walkable. The $45 cost was worth it. The free visitor center at the start/stop is worth visiting; you get a free stamp for your postcard. Also, if Rick(??) is there, ask to see his money collection from around the world. Ever see folding money from North Korea?
BTW: We ate lunch at 49th State Brewery downtown and can highly recommend its food and brews. The Bavarian pretzel is one the best ever, including Germany! The views are really nice too. 49th State also has restaurant in the airport, but with limited menu and it isn't nearly as charming.Written 3 October 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We saw the Portage Visitors center, wildlife conservatory, Beluga whales at Beluga point and the beautiful marsh lands. It was a great way to travel to Anchorage!Written 2 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- AlohaShanHuntington Beach, CA73 contributionsIf you are not in a hurry and want a full day transfer tour from Seward to Alaska, this is for you, what a fantastic tour!!! We were on a post cruise stay in Seward and later in the season so the train from Seward to Anchorage had already stopped, and we were disappointed about that, so we booked this transfer as our transpiration. But how wrong we were, this was far better than the train transfer could have ever been! It was in a practically brand new Mercedes Sprinter van, had door to door service and James our guide (longtime Alaskan local) was by far the most knowledgeable guide about Alaska, telling us all kinds of little known facts, and took us to the most amazing and interesting stops for photos and stories, that you would not typically see or experience on a normal tour. We also were given a cute little nylon string bag filled with water bottles and snacks for the journey. We felt very special and at the end of the day were so happy that the train was not running! For a wonderful experience and incredible hospitality, be sure to book this transfer tour!Written 28 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- VivianNew Jersey4 contributionsAmazing experience! Ben and Carl were both extremely accommodating and informative tour guides and the glacier was an amazing sightseeing opportunity. It was so nice to be driven all the way there and back with stops along the way and back to see different views and photo opportunities.
I would highly recommend booking this tour as it is extremely well worth it to have them take you to the glacier and tell you a bunch of interesting information about Alaska. We will definitely be booking through Alaska’s Finest Tours and adventures for any future upcoming Alaskan adventures.Written 12 January 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Lena HSingapore, Singapore50 contributionsWow you would think cruising up close and see glaciers is a bucket list, wait till you walk INTO the glaciers and listen to the rich stories provided by Bill our excellent guide! You meander through the crevasses and discover different scenery as you journey into this easy 1.5hr walk (which flew by too quickly because the scenery is simply breathtaking!) WE LOVE IT SO MUCH! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Written 25 March 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Rahn K3 contributionsthe captain did a great job getting us up close to the glaciers and the US forest rancher did a great job telling us the history of the park. I recommend this tour to anyone coming for an Alaska visit.Written 27 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Rebecca CPhoenix, AZ40 contributionsIt turned out that my sister and I are such poor bike riders, we decided the ride would not be worth the risk of broken bones. But the owner, Frankie, took us on a hike while the rest of the group rode the trail. She gave us lots of great information about the area as well. After our hike she took us to earthquake park, then the pond where the others met up with us. As we pulled up, we spotted a bull moose walking down the sidewalk! It was terrific!Written 20 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Jessica9 contributionsThis glacier helicopter tour is a must. The sites are breathtaking. Nature is truly miraculous. There aren't enough words to describe the beauty. Wyatt was our helicopter pilot. He was awesome. He took great care of us. Checked in with us. Explained what we were seeing. Pointed out the animals. I am already planning a second trip back in the summer to try some.of thr other adventures and see it again. This is truly a must do. We are visitors on this planet and don't really deserve the beauty and bounty and all it's wonders.Written 26 March 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
