Options
When making the decision to become our client, we expect to provide a level of service and first-hand experience that will encourage you want to come back as well as tell your friends with a whole-lot of energy how fantastic Alaska really is! Whatever it is you need, even if you think it is far fetched, let us know, and we will try to make it happen. Whether you want to hike on a glacier or see a bear nose-to-nose, or arrange a flight in a two-seater float plane for a few minutes, we can probably make it happen.
Within our network, you will feel like an insider, not a visitor. If you are staying a while, you may want to arrange a "host family" to show you around and take you fishing where Alaskans go. We can provide that connection for you.
Planning Ahead Versus Last-Minute
With access to a variety of partners, we can make a few calls to help you organize your trip in advance. We can also check around to see if there are any last-minute deals you can snatch up when adding a same or next day trip to your itinerary. These deals are usually available for one or two seats and do not last long.
