Go Alaska Tours Reviews 17

Thank you Alaska Active Travel, for arranging the entire hassel free trip to Glacier Bay National park. The 8 hour catamaran tour of Glacier Bay was at the end but also the highlight of our trip to Alaska. We saw many otters, sea lions, seals, orcas and calving of the John Hopkins glacier. Alaska Active Travel made our arrangements for the flights from Juneau to Gustavus, a two night stay at the Glacier Bay Lodge ( in a room with a view of the bay), catamaran tour of Glacier bay. They also arranged a night in a hotel close to the Juneau airport for our return flight home. Glacier Bay was definitely the highlight and I wish we could have spent more time in Glacier Bay and highly recommend Alaska Active Travel.

Thank you for the amazing trip. Denali did not disappoint. We are now in the eite 30% group that could view it on our full train over to the National Park. It was spectacular. Everything went well and it was the trip of a lifetime.

Through Alaska Active Travel LLC, we booked a two-day excursion to Glacier Bay near Juneau in mid-June 2025. On the first day, we spotted whales (humpbacks) and other marine animals. We were lucky enough to see many humpbacks and also the “first” orcas of the season. An unforgettable experience. The second day was a boat day. We sailed more than 200 km in this beautiful Glacier Bay. We were treated to a variety of marine animals, beautiful views, and calving glaciers... simply fantastic. Highly recommended.
The next day, we visited Tracy Arm Fjord, also near Juneau. Again, it was fantastically beautiful and highly recommended.

Alaska Active Travel had organized this very well. THANK YOU

We had a wonderful time. It was mostly uneventful, except for the time we got caught in a forest fire for 2 hours going by train from Denali to Fairbanks. But even that was lovely in the dome car…… The itinerary was just about perfect. We also took advantage of our unscheduled time in Fairbanks to go to Wiseman Alaska via a flight-seeing expedition in a small plane. The one thing we missed doing was hiking on a glacier — all of us were too tired at that point to do anything, so we skipped that. Instead we spent the last day (yesterday) driving to Whittier and looking at the huge Holland America Cruise ship instead and gift shopping in the small shop in Whittier.

The hotels were perfect and the dome cars on the trains are experiences we will cherish. We were afraid of our dietary requirements, but every place we visited had menu items that catered to our limited needs! They were tasty too!!!

I have already talked about this trip to several folks in our extended family and I am sure they will be contacting you for arranging their trips!

My wife and I were going to be in Juneau for the beginning of a cruise to Vancouver. We decided to schedule the Go Alaska tour of Glacier Bay to our trip. It was fantastic! We saw incredible glaciers and we were able to get really close to them; much closer than the cruise ships in the Bay. We also saw more wildlife in 7 hours than we saw in 7 days on our cruise - whales, otters, seals, brown bears, eagles, puffins, etc.
The short plane ride was cool too. Would use them again. Very happy with our experience.

The tour package had versatile activities and the staff was very accommodating and responsive to our questions and needs.
The hotels were great; especially the Bettles Lodge which is a hidden gem. :)

We had a GREAT time on our tour to Alaska for the 53rd running of the Iditarod. Although we had a major problem when the Iditarod Committee had to relocate the official start of the Iditarod from Willow to Fairbanks due to weather. I felt that your staff at Go Alaska Tours did an outstanding job of setting everything up so we could be part of the official start of the Iditarod. I am sure it took a lot of time and work to make everything happen so it was a seamless experience. Regal Air did an excellent job of providing us an awesome experience at the official start of the race in Fairbanks. They not only set us up to observe the official race start they went so far as to bring us to a place along the trail that allowed us to observe the mushers along the trail. Thank you for a GREAT EXPERIENCE

I traveled to Alaska with family and booked a 4-day experience with Go Alaska Tours and it was the best thing I could've done. They coordinated everything, from the hotel, to the pickups, and of course, all the different tours. It was an incredible experience that was made even better by the best tour guides, like Ash. I could not recommend them more if you're looking for a great time in Alaska!

I had a great experience with Alaska Active Travel/Go Alaska Tours. Every step of the booking process was very easy and straightforward. Andrea provided very detailed emails on the booking process and itinerary and answered any questions I had. The vouchers provided to me a few weeks before my Alaska trip were very easy to follow and use. In addition, all of the vendors the vouchers were through knew exactly who I was when it came time to using them. I had a great time in Alaska and I really liked the itinerary Alaska Active Travel put together. I got to see and experience a little bit of everything during my stay in Alaska and I can't wait to go back. I would recommend using this company for your Alaska adventures.

The hotels and tours were all top notch. Go Alaska Tours also has a valuable asset in Andrea--she was very helpful before and during my tour. Would recommend to anyone traveling to Alaska--already have told numerous people about this great experience

We took 3 tours with Go Alaska on a recent trip to Alaska. Go Alaska were very responsive and helpful from our first contact through booking and all the paperwork neccesary for the tours.

Their communications were great. Trip was as planned except for flight from Gustavus on 08/09/2024 cancelled due to weather. I was able to find a water taxi to Juneau that night.
Next day got email from Alaska Tours asking about the delay. When I explained what had happened they promptly refunded the cost of the airfare.

What can I say but wonderful boat trip!We saw so many different animals, sea lions, whales, orca family, puffins and all kinds of other birds! The weather was beautiful, the captain was a bonus! He knew his job and everyone was friendly!

We were so glad to have booked the trip with go alaska tours. They were so thorough with the booking, to the accommodations and the tours. I would recommend anyone wanting to tour alaska to use this company. The price was very reasonable. Answered questions immediately.

Just wanted to report on our Alaska vacation. I spent a lot of time on researching for this trip, where to go and what to do. I’m glad I did .There is so much to see and do that one week is really not enough. We never had a problem with the vouchers, even a few places never even asked for them.

The hotel in Anchorage was very good and the Denali Bluffs was enchanting. On our Denali tour it was rainy and foggy so we didn't see much wildlife except for one lonely caribou but even though it was non eventful, it was just nice to see the scenery. We did the zoo in Anchorage ,the Alyeska tram, a Glacier tour in Seward which was super, Denali tour, Eklutna Lake hike, Thunder Bird falls, Santa's house in North Pole, Museum of the North in Fairbanks, Antique car museum also Fairbanks, Running Rein Deer Ranch, now that was awesome, Pipeline view point, Moose antler arch, Solomon Gulch Hatchery to see salmon and sea lions and seals gorging themselves on the salmons, Dock Point hike, Musk Ox Farm tour in Palmer, walked the Valdez harbor and ate at many good restaurants. We saw a lot and did a lot and really enjoyed our time in Alaska. Thank you for your help in setting up the rental car and hotels.
