Opinie

Exquisite Tour Day
DONALD_J, 29-09-2022
Alaska Exquisite Travel is a company to count on. While no company can guarantee what wildlife you will see - we had a magical tour. We saw Beluga whales and mountain sheep on the way out to beautiful Portage glacier. At the wildlife center, the Arctic fox napped in plain sight, while we viewed lots of other animals including a show from the black and brown bears.

But the star of Alaska Exquisite Travel is Jeremy. He responded to our pre-tour text questions even on a Sunday evening. He was patient with a couple that wandered off and needed to be found before the tour could continue. He is so dedicated to providing a great and safe experience to his customers that he washed his van at midnight after a full day’s work so that it would be clean and ready for our a.m. tour.
Great introduction to Alaska

Jeremy was an excellent guide, extremely knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. We particularly enjoyed the Portage Glacier cruise on a splendid sunny day, the salmon spawning, and the Wildlife Refuge. Only recommendation is to have a lunch included as part of the package.
Super tour

This tour was amazing! Driving to the glacier boat we saw fall sheep in the mountains and whales in the water. The cruise around Portage Glazier was spectacular. The Wildlife Conservation Center was a must see. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and the day was a great time!
An incredible Alaska experience!

There were many memorable parts to our day, but I did love getting up close to a beautiful glacier. I even got to hold a piece of the iceberg!
