Matanuska hike

4.00Generally the tour took 2 hours drive to Matanuska, a 2 hour hike and 2 hours drive to return. I am not sure why limit the time for hike to two hours, wonder to cater for the physical and safety of the visitor.. The tour guide at the glazier site was strict, unpleasant tone and everyone must follow the walk on the glacier one by one with few stopovers for photo taking. I can understand it was for the safety of everyone particularly the tour had pre-teen/teen. But kind of boring. We expect something more interesting and challenging. Also October was a shoulder season which is lack of snow and ice.

5.00Great guided hike on the glacier. Guide was knowledgeable and provided a lot of interesting information about the glacier and ensured everyone's safety. Plenty of opportunities to take pictures. Don't have to be super fit, but there is elevation and hiking at a moderate pace vs a stroll. Although the driver didn't provide a guided narrative on the way, he was very knowledgeable of the area and the glacier and happily answered any questions.

5.00Our guide Leona is experienced and friendly. Took lots of professional photos of us. We drove 2 hours and stopped by a Mcdonald to get lunch. The hiking part is one of the kind, once in a lifetime experience. My 5 year old girl was able to follow along, almost 2 hr hike. My 8 year old boy was following the guide all the time, asking all sorts of questions, and the guide was able to answer him and even let him tried the pickaxe on ice and rock. We were lucky the weather was nice. We wore layers of clothes and the kids wore ski pants which proved to be necessary. Wear utility boots or sneakers, something you won't mind to get dirty.

5.00Kevin communicated very well in advance and kept us on track. He was always ahead of the curve and went above and beyond to help us and the other family with children to enjoy the experience safely. He was knowledgeable, helpful and kind, good with all of us from a 4-year old to retirees. 10 out of 10. Also, the on-site guides were well-trained, knew how to explain the glacier and navigate safely in the strange and constantly changing environment. Fun and very memorable.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An unforgettable glacier adventure with Kevin!

5.00Our family had an amazing glacier experience, and Kevin was the highlight of the day. He was knowledgeable, patient, and made sure everyone—from our youngest to the adults—felt comfortable and safe. Kevin explained the glacier’s history and features in a way that was engaging and easy to understand, and he went above and beyond to help us capture some incredible photos. His passion for the outdoors is contagious, and he made the whole trip both educational and fun. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Highly recommend Kevin for anyone looking for a memorable glacier adventure!
Conquering your fears with grace.

5.00Hiking the glacier was breathtaking. I was a bit nervous because I have never done it before but my 16 year old son encouraged me and walla, I kept up just fine. Our guide was fun and knowledgeable.
Ride and Guide

4.00The tour consists of two portions. The first is the drive to and from the glacier. That is the part handled by this company. Kevin, our driver, was good. He pointed out some facts and interesting things along the way. We stopped off at a supermarket in Palmer to buy ourselves some lunches for the rest of the ride to Matanuska. After getting to the glacier, we were essentially handed over to the guide company there. Will, our guide on the glacier, was very knowledgeable. He is about to enter his senior year at UT Austin, and is a geophysics major with a special interest in glaciers. We learned a lot of science and geology facts. Also, the hike was on the edge of the glacier, which is a very different geology from other ones we’ve been on before in Iceland and New Zealand. For those tours, we went to the middle of the glaciers. Not sure what the breakdown in cost between the ride and the glacier guide is. If I had a better rental car, I could’ve made the drive myself and hired the guides directly.

5.00The experience was great. The driver was a Chinese and very responsible. He took good care of my friend and me all the way. As we were J1 students, there were also other foreign couples in the car. He would often look at us through the rearview mirror to check on our condition and explain things in both Chinese and English. The guide sister was particularly responsible. During the glacier hike, she would hold your hand to walk and also take pictures for you. She was a very infectious person.
