5.00We had a very enjoyable day. David was a great driver and guide. He mentioned things that he thought we would like to do on the trip and he listened to what we wanted to do. He picked us up on time and also got us back on time. Would definitely recommend this adventure.
Long Tour with Little Reward!

2.00We enjoyed the stop to see the pipeline, but I don’t feel like we learned much about it. We were disappointed that we spent 6 hours getting to the Arctic circle only to find out the tour there was just a sign and a small observation deck. Our tour guide was engaging and talked with us the entire time but we learned little about Alaska and a lot about him instead. We’re glad we did the tour so we can say we went to the Arctic circle but we wouldn’t recommend and suggest finding a different tour.

5.00We thoroughly enjoyed the journey up to the Arctic Circle. Dave our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the Alaska landscape, environment and ecosystem. He shared stories about the history and answered our questions along the way stopping at interesting areas as we drove. Even though it was a long day the scenery and information made the day enjoyable.
Tour needs more than just reaching the Artic Circle.

3.00Reaching the Arctic Circle was on my bucket list and thankfully the weather cooperated. The driver was very nice and informative. We were a bit disappointed that we did not see any wildlife after a very long drive. However, the bigger negative was that we got a flat tire on the way back. That happens, but the big problem was that the spare on the shuttle was not for that shuttle (wrong size) and thankfully the driver was able to plug the tire and get us back safely after a couple of wasted hours. The company needs to inspect their vehicles and make sure they are in optimum condition for transporting passengers.
