Matt was a truly great and fun tour guide
MistyPearl_S, 10-09-2022
Due to forecasted rain showers, they offered us a new schedule that day with a guided tour, which was really great.

Matt was a very fun and knowledgeable tour guide. He even shared his personal experiences and interesting true-to-life stories, thatโ€™s why the trip didnโ€™t feel so long. Matt was so light and easy that our kids even enjoy his company. The sites we went to: Glacier, Wildlife sanctuary, salmon river were amazing, truly awe-inspiring.

This a great, short one hour cruise on Portage Lake. The crew is very friendly and the naturalist provided great information. We spent adequate time at the glacier for everyone to get their pictures. Lunch at the Glacier Cafe was also good.
Enjoyed the trip

Liked Chris who was accommodating our request for early return. Liked giving us a map to explore the place at our own. A staff for another shuttle kindly answered our questions while we were waiting for our shuttle.
