An outstanding, intimate Alaskan experience with Bumble Expeditions. Sarah organised everything flawlessly, Ethan delivered a superb guided tour spotting bears, bald eagles and a temperate rainforest walk, and Cole took us out on a modern boat for unforgettable whale watching—complete with whales, sea lions and sea otters. They specialise in small groups (ours was just four guests - bigger groups too if required), which made the whole day feel bespoke and relaxed. A really good lunch was included, and while Alaska isn’t cheap, this was excellent value—around half the price of comparable cruise excursions, and far more personal. We discovered them by chance at the port, and everything ran seamlessly from start to finish. Friendly, professional, and genuinely special—couldn’t recommend them more highly.
