Traveller reviews
Great oporator "kelley" he was a wonderful person and guid he was with us the entire time and shared his knowledge about history of alaska and the area. At the glacier Layna was a very knowledegble expert about the activities of the glacier and the timing of the events . We loved the experience.
We had a great experience with Kel! He was knowledgeable and helpful with pickup and drop off and accompanied us on the tour (along with the glacier guide). Would definitely recommend this tour and him.
This was an exhilarating and informative experience. Our guides were excellent ensuring we had a great experience while also being very safety minded.
Kel was a great communicator before and during the trip. He delivered exactly what was promised. He made sure we were safe and having fun. This company was professional, safe, and gave us a beautiful day!
wow...what a day...exceptional!!!started with Kel picking us up from our Airbnb right on time. Gave us water and we sat back and heard all about the history of Alaska and the area. Kel was more than happy to stop for pictures along the way. Once we arrived for the Glacier walk, things got even better. Definitely one of our holiday highlights. You must do this tour....simply breathtaking and Kel and our Guide (Peach) were excellent. I could not recommend Kel and his tour highly enough
Kel was a great guide since the start. It was really easy to communicate with him and get information before the tour and was there right on time to pick me up. He was always giving us information about the area and Alaska. Matanuska is an amazing place. Highly recommended to see. Kel is great guide and it is 100./. Recommended. I will come back and contact him again.
Kel saved the day after our other booking was cancelled at the last minute. He was attentive to safety issues and allowed for a food and bathroom stop during a 2 hour drive. He shared information about Alaskan history and terrain during the drive which made the time fly by. We stopped for a photo op right before arrival. Then he apprised us about what to expect during the glacier tour. He accompanied our group on the glacier tour, offering a welcome hand as we stepped up and down the precarious ice. Kel was a friendly and helpful tour guide. I would go on another tour with him for sure. His logo is artistic and we bought a t shirt and mug to remember our wonderful adventure.
Kel was amazing! We were able to book a tour with him at the last minute. He was very easy to coordinate with and made everything effortless for us.
