Reviews of our Anchorage Tours for Summer
Feedback from guests whose tour started in/around Anchorage during Summer.
Anonymous | Traveled in August
My experience on the Alaska land tour was fantastic, with stunning landscapes, knowledgeable tour director (*personal info removed by Feefo*), and well-organized itineraries that showcased the beauty of Alaska. The included activities, like scenic drives and visits to national parks, were highlights, offering breathtaking views and opportunities to learn about the region’s culture and history. However, I found the Tundra optional tour to be overpriced and quite disapointing i.e. hardly any wildlife sightings. Notwithstabding, it is still a very memorable trip with room for improvement in the value of optional excursions.

I had an amazing time. I'll be booking with G again. Fantastic tour, lovely hikes, and great info from our CEO. I genuinely could not have had a better experience.

It hit all I wanted from visiting Alaska. Could of past up the ox farm and had another hike in Denali but the director and driver were great knowledgeable and kind

Maham K | Traveled in August
This was my first trip to Alaska and my first G Adventures tour, and it couldn’t have been better. The Hiking Valdez itinerary was incredible — from the scenery to the activities, every moment was memorable. The experience exceeded my expectations and made this trip truly unforgettable. I’m already looking forward to traveling with G Adventures again!

Everything was just perfect, from the excellent and friendly guide, to the trips, excursions, hikes, lodges etc. Not a moment was wasted but also didn't feel rushed. A perfect tour of a very big and beautiful country.
