Anchorage Family Vacation - Enjoyed the tour. Was disappointed that we didn't get to go to the Tasting of Salmon and Reindeer sausage. But we scheduled the tour on Memorial Day and they were closed for the holiday. But the rest of the tour was great. Would definitely recommend this tour to see Anchorage. We also got to see a moose grazing by the side of the road. Our driver stopped so we could take pictures.

Donna was fantastic - Covers most of the city. Donna was our guide and she was very knowledgeable. A true delight who loves life and shares her experiences in Alaska. We stopped at multiple locations that offered free samples and unique products produced in the area. We also saw hidden gems along the route including a glacier waterfall.

Anchorage Tour with stops - This is a great tour to see the sights of Anchorage! Our tour guide Diane drove us to a variety of sights to see. She has lived in Anchorage for years and is very familiar with the city and surroundings Some of the trip felt like a glorified shopping trip! We went into a candy store and a smoked meat shop Of course I purchased from all It is a good way to get your bearings and head out the next day

It was okay - Our tour was delayed due to a broken microphone so we had to switch to another van that was brought to our location. Once on the tour we mostly stopped at Alaskan-made businesses to purchase. Although they were interesting, not exactly what we expected. Our tour guide was pleasant and informative regarding local facts.

ok cruise - It was ok. Biggest problem was that there were too many people squeezed into the bus. Those of us in the back were very uncomfortable and it took too long to get on and off the bus. No more than two people should be on the back row. Actually, there is not all that much to see in Anchorage. Enjoyed the businesses.
