Great trip with all the highlights included

I went on a trip in July 2023 and loved every second of it. We saw 5 bears in Denali, had some great hikes. The group was fun and our guides were amazing and made sure all of our dreams came true. The dinners were so yummy, I loved the grilled salmon but also the curries and pasta dishes we had. The trip felt like traveling with family and I want to go back to see other parts of Alaska's amazing wilderness.
