Driver was knowledgeable. She knows the history of the places we visited. She brought us to the Ulu factory, Alaska Sausage and Seafood Company where we sampled variety of Salmon snacks. The other places were great such as the Scenic Waterfalls View Point.

Gary was a great tour guide and did his best at trying to find us some local wildlife to view. We all ended up buying something at each stop; at the Ulu store, the sausage store and the chocolate sweets shop. And Gary was non stop information about the locals and the local information. Great afternoon excursion!
