Pat was an excellent guide, asking what we’d like to see, and then taking us there! He spotted 2 bald eagles way up high in the trees, then used his own zoom equipment so we could have a look. He also showed me a very simple iPhone technique to create a long exposure shot of a waterfall. Amazing!

We just went with Pat as our host. He took us to some great sites. To bad the goats where gone. Took a amazing picture of a bald eagle chilling in a tree.

This was probably one of the best experiences ever!! Our tour guide Nikki was AMAZING! She was so knowledgeable and kind and took us to some amazing spots where I got to see nature up close (and took lots of photos) we also saw a bear on the side of the road! This was truly a wonderful way to experience Alaska and exactly what I was hoping to see!

We took a photography tour with Christine from Rainbow Glacier Adventures. Christine was not only a great guide to gorgeous spots around Skagway, but she was also very good at helping us get great personal photos, both helping us take better photos and taking some of us herself. She was the best part of a great excursion. Many thanks.

Easily one of the best experiences of our entire Alaskan trip. Christine was our guide and gave us plenty of opportunities to take photos at a variety of picturesque and idyllic spots in the area. Plenty of commentary and history as well. Very friendly! A highlight of our vacation.

Trip was great! Christine knew good places to get nice pictures and provided fun commentary along the way. Fun day and a great way to see the Klondike highway in a small group setting.

It was amazing. Been traveling with my wife for a few years, and this is the first time I had an actual photographer as a guide, who was super informative both about the area, and about how to operate and stage photos. Pat was super nice and patient with the young photographers and had great framing advice for the more advanced!

Started with a very personable and warm welcome from Brolin who would be our guide and mentor for the entire tour. The van was very comfortable and the large windows were very appropriate when we encountered three different bears: a black bear, a brown bear and the very rare Cinnamon Bear - wow! He also took us to the most incredibly scenic areas and helped with a bit of tech advice. And the bonus - Brolin's very obvious passion for the area and his knowledge of the wildlife and the scenery. Did I mention we saw three bears and a ptarmigan - Alaska's state bird? A great day!

Our guide was Pat. He was very knowledgeable. He set up his own camera so we could see the Eagles. He was helpful to us elderly getting in and out of the van. I recommend this excursion and recommend Pat as your guide.
