Scott, our guide, was very knowledgeable and eager to share what he knew about the places we visited. His commentaries were relevant, interesting, and went beyond the typical descriptions. His small group made the experience seem even more customized. We visited places that are typically on the tourist stops. I would recommend this tour for anyone wanting a small group experience with a guide who truly loves what he's doing and loves to share Alaska with visitors!

Wow! Don't miss this one. The glacier is so cool. You are outfitted with ice cleats and a helmet and ice poles for hiking. Our group wasn't large and we had a great guy as a tour guide on the hike. Our photographer,Scott was wonderful. He knows so much about the area and fun to be with. I highly recommend any tour he provides. He makes it all about you!

We cannot thank Scott enough for the amazing day we had! It was just fantastic! Scott is a great person, so kind and fun to talk to. We had a great conversation while driving and he made sure to keep us entertained in our way to the glacier and back. The glacier hike was outstanding! Easy walk with a lot of cool facts and the opportunity to take great pictures. After the walk he took us for a delicious lunch at a locally owned restaurant and on the way back we stopped in a lot of different places to take more pictures. We loved how he knew all the loca people, the hidden spots and he was able to suggest things to do based on on preference. We loved hanging out with him. He went above and beyond!

A fantastic tour with a knowledgeable, open, funny tour guide that give his utmost effort to show you the most picturesque areas. But this isn’t just about pictures my friend, no, you will have fun hiking to the Matanuska glacier, and you will learn many things along the way. Having taken a number of tours in the area, this tour is the most thorough in showing you the best most beautiful and hidden places. Book it and don’t think twice about it.

Scott is an absolutely amazing guide. Very informative and will adjust the tour to what you really want to see. He's extremely knowledgeable and will take you to as many hidden gems as he can fit in the day. One of the best tours I've been on and you will get way more than what you paid for!

You have a fun free and kind spirit! -Diana & Luis
