Anchorage City Tour
Andrea_H, May 2024
Knowledgeable guide. Enjoyed learning about Anchorage - past and present. Stops tapped into the local culture, and we even saw a moose near Lake Hood.
Make sure your guide is experieced
Mary_M, May 2024
The tour has the potential to be excellent. However our guide was brand new and had only been in Anchorage a week. She knew very little about Anchorage and could only answer questions about native traditions, which was fine, but we had no idea what part of Anchorage we were in and what the history was. I go on these tours for in-depth history and fun stories about the city and it's development. Very disappointing. Not at all like other Viator tours I have taken in the past.
Great tour!
Alma_S, May 2024

Laura_W, Apr 2024
Loved seeing the sea planes. We got to see a moose! Being able to see the Ulu knives being made, learning about the earthquake, and all the beautiful scenery. Our guide Donna was very knowledgeable and being a local for decades, she had a lot of really good stories.
We don’t see any wild animals come out. But it was a beautiful trip and the driver Danna was great

The Tour of a Lifetime
Natasha_D, Mar 2024
This amazing tour ranks as my very favorite excursion that I’ve ever experienced - this being said, of course Alaska has plenty enough natural wonders as it stands - but all of that was so richly planned out, beautifully enhanced by our knowledgeable, fun, witty and super hospitable tour guide, Ben! I learned SO very much and was so wildly fascinated by all of the stories, facts, and historical significances he shared throughout our tour. Safety is also an important factor, and all during the entire trip, I felt comfortable and perfectly safe even at close up observations of the wildlife we discovered and observed along the way - I mean this trip was simply incredible. Ben’s descriptions and shared experiences were so vivid and interesting, it felt as if we all were being transported back to that very moment when they took place. Amazing. And did I mention that we were allowed to sample mouthwatering and delectable treats created by local vendors and watch live craftsmen create beautiful products - all skillfully manufactured to perfection. So awesome! Although I could have toured forever and will always want to return for more wonderful journeys, our tour wrapped up in just the perfect amount of time! I felt wonderfully fulfilled with all of our fabulous hours we spent exploring, and though Ben was such a terrific and generous ambassador to introduce us all to this unique and beautiful part of the country, (and I could have stayed all day to hear more adventurous tales and fantastic factoids)- I floated away from the steps of our van totally in awe of having just taken the most thrilling of thrill rides of my life! Simply Amazing! I can’t believe all we experienced for such a great price! I’ll never forget our time together! Thanks, Ben. My life has been so greatly enriched!
Small Group, interesting stops
