Fabulous trip

Juneau Wildlife Whale Watching
Karen_M, Sep 2026
Fabulous trip
Fantastic, well organised, fun trip. Although it was late September, we saw at least 5 whales, who breached right by the boat, it was spectacular. Justin took the boat to the perfect place and Kacey & Griffin kept us fully informed about whales life cycle in a fun way throughout the trip.

My husband and I enjoyed this outing very much. Our guide, was so fun, friendly, and funny. He took great care of the group. The whale watching was great. We saw 7 whales, and many birds. The two boat guides knew a lot! Very friendly. The walk to see Mendenhall Glacier was easy and fun. A stunning view. Thank you!

The cruise was truly one-of-a-kind experience and it’s absolutely worth it. Recommend carrying rain proof jackets and pants as it can get wet during rain when ur going outside to see the glaciers. It can also get pretty chilly out there so pack in layers as well.

E-bike and Hike Experience
I ended up being the only one in the group. Jenny picked me up and dropped me off at the cruise terminal. Anika was my guide and was great! Knowledgeable and very kind. It was my first time riding an e-bike. She made sure I was comfortable throughout the ride to the forest. Ketchikan had received heavy rains the night before, and the creeks were flowing, and several became falls. We stopped along the way and took pictures. Beautiful scenic ride to the Tongass National Forest! Once in the forest, Anika gave an overview. We stopped at the main creek, hoping to see bears. With the rain the night before, the water was too fast for the bears to come to the creek and catch salmon. We made it to the beach where we saw some seals. Sadly, we did not see much wildlife, but the views were beautiful! After the tour, we headed back to where Ketchikan Kayak Company had smoked salmon and other snacks ready for me. The ladies were great! As I was leaving, many visitors were coming in for the kayak adventure. I forgot to mention that I also received a snack back for the trip to the Tongass National Forest. I would recommend Ketchikan Kayak Company.

Great experience!
This excursion was worth every penny. The weather was not great on the day of our planned outing and early afternoon we received a text from Aurora telling us we had the option of canceling for a full refund or we could ride along with them and take a chance. We went and boy am I glad! Our guide Andrew pick us up at our hotel in a brand new Mercedes van promptly at 9:00. We received a text when he arrived. There were 7 of us in the van - Andrew, his assistant up frontal, a couple and their adult daughter in middle row and me and my friend in the back row. The van was very clean and comfortable. We drove to North Pole AK and met another van which we followed. We got out to take pictures of the Christmas store while we waited which was all decorated up for Christmas. We started driving and Andrew narrated while we rode. He’s an amazing source of AK info. We stopped a few times and they checked for the Northern Lights with their equipment but no luck so we moved on. Stopped at a gas station for bathroom. It was very clean. The guides were determined we would find the lights. Eventually we pulled into a state park by a lake and they found them! It was AMAZING!! Worth the drive for sure. They set up their camera equipment and took lots of pictures with each person in front of the lights. They’d move the camera if a better view came up. We could see the light movement and pillars of light so well. The colors were harder to see with naked eye but looked amazing through their camera. The guides helped people set their camera settings so they could capture the lights. They set up a bonfire and set out chairs, coffee, hot tea , hot chocolate, marshmallows and reindeer hot dogs (they were yummy!) to roast. So fun! The guides smelled a moose and were very proactive about looking for it to make sure we were safe. It had wandered down to the lake. They packed us up and drove back. In all we drove 3.5 hours out of Fairbanks to get to see the lights. It was a late night as they dropped us back at hotel at 5:30am. We received a text a few days later with link to all the pictures. One thing… their phone number is answered by a machine and you would get a text later. This made communication a little slow.

The crew at Denali Fat Trucks is more than Fabulous! This excursion is a once in a lifetime experience that should not be missed when visiting Healy/Denali National Park. The 3 hour ride can be a little bumpy, but that’s part of the fun. Mark and Tim were great hosts and drivers and did whatever they could to make the ride enjoyable. Mark, our driver, was very knowledgeable about Alaska and shared so much interesting information. The drone video of our trip was an added bonus and priceless!
