Cool tour.

3.00Got dropped off at the wrong block by our Uber Driver (his bad). Happy that the shuttle waited for us as we were two minutes late after figuring out where we were supposed to be. Tour was very good; driver was extremely personable and knowledgeable. Took a similar tour in New Orleans which I enjoyed significantly more, but to be fair the Big Easy had a lot more history and character.

5.00Wonderful experience! Our tour guide Prince was very kind, and on a cooler day, the trolley was nice and warm. He took lots of our family pictures for us, as well! The meeting point on Viator is incorrect, however! So be sure to call or message in advance, or walk down a different street to find a big red trolley. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking to get a native’s glimpse into Anchorage!
A tour well worth the time and money

5.00Prince was a super great tour guide and driver for us. He’ll also reroute the tour if wildlife is stirring out your windows, as long as it doesn’t mean anyone is late for any activities or events happening after the tour. Make sure you bring cash to tip him!
