    The 2 hour drive was beautiful and our driver Kim was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Our glacier guide Bennett was amazing. He was fun and you could tell he enjoyed his job. Our 12 year old son has decided he wants to come back when he’s older and be a glacier guide. The glacier hike was long and you needed to focus but the spikes helped and every step was even more beautiful. I would not recommend for anyone who struggles with balance.

  • Awesome glacier hike

    Great tour of the enormous glacier, we learned a lot of interesting facts from Frank our glacier tour guide. Frank was patient with our group as some people had an easier time with the terrain than others. Things to note, it is cold there even in July, wear layers including a winter jacket, wear hiking shoes or boots even though they give you crampons, and know that the terrain isn’t even. All that being said, we loved the hike and would do it again. BTW, my husband and I are both over 60 yrs old. The honey and “wine” tasting were definitely not the highlight of the trip.

    This was a great experience… Beautiful sites, and all the logistics taken care of by White Raven tours. Hiking the glacier was amazing. We had a brilliant beautiful day. I would definitely book this trip again so easy and so worth the money.

    A 2 1/2 hour drive to get there from Anchorage but worthwhile. The surface of the glacier is bumpy and uneven but we had crampons so that helped. We dressed warmly but was shedding our coats from hiking around the glacier. Lots of beautiful blue ice and plenty of dirt and gravel also.

  • Great guide

    Guide was fantastic. Offered a 360 drone of the glacier and group along the way. We had an adventurous group and believe we were able to hike a little higher than some other groups. Great experience.
