• Not worth it. Read the Liability Waiver Form

  Owner canceled our trip after we already paid. Her reason was because she wasnt happy that I didn't initial the portion that pretty much says I will be financially responsible to them even if I get injured because of their own fault. Mind you, I signed the entire agreement, but didn't initial that portion. I felt that I got baited to sign up. The liability info should have been discussed before taking our money. We left Kennicott and traded a tour of the mine in exchange for the kayak adventure (out of courtesy) since the manager called me while we were already heading to the mines. When we were about to start the kayak, we signed the waiver forms but owner was forcing us to initial the provision on the Liability Waiver Form that pretty much says they dont need to call 911 on you if you end up drowning, dead or if you get lost... you can die in the river and they couldn't care less if you end up dead, and if you end up needing to go to Court to contest their screwed up paperwork you will pay them. I placed this review in a different platform, and instead of properly addressing a legitimate issue, owner attacked my person. Just to reiterate: 1. The Liability Waiver Form is NOT standard at all. I have traveled all over the US and in many countries. I have not seen such absurd provisions. Calling 911 isn't just about getting medical assistance. It is also for proper documentation. In Alaska, GROSS NEGLIGENCE is non-waivable but this company wants people to hand over their lives and your money without any accountability on their part. 2. To the owner, you could have simply addressed my concerns in person instead of shunning us after you took our money and time. I am glad that you made a statement about your screwed up Liability Waiver Form so people can now expect that you will maintain emergency protocols and having a trained rescue team/staff to ensure their safety. 3. Nowhere in your marketing representations or documents did you state that your staff is trained to do EMS, etc., not even when we spoke with each other. Rather, your own documentations state that you will let people die in your company if things do not end up well. I If people are paying you $$$$, it is a reasonable expectation from customers that you would give them a little courtesy of making sure they will be okay in your company and you are not going to screw them over. All your 5 star reviews are worth nothing if any one ends up dead and you can walk away from it! Obviously, you only care about your 5 star reviews and taking people's money than fixing serious problems on how you do your business. Good luck! Warning to Travelers: No adventure trip is worth doing if the people who are facilitating it will let you die on their watch and laugh at your mourning family after you end up dead in their company.

• Great time kayaking!

  The tour was customized for us. John, our guide, was very helpful in helping us get into our dry suits and explaining what to expect on the short hike to the lake we were Kayaking on. Not only was he exceptionally knowledgeable about the history of McCarthy and the mountains and glaciers we were seeing, but had lots of information of the geology of the area. He told us about local plants. John is very skilled, patient and kind. We loved every minute of our Four hour adventure!

  A group of friends and I went on the Glacial Lake Inflatable Kayak Tour and wow, what an amazing day of adventure! The scenery was breath taking, our guide was friendly and professional and even the weather cooperated with us. After a lovely paddle back to an ice wall we stopped for some lunch and a chance to take in our surroundings. Then it was off to find an iceberg to jump off! Yes, an iceberg to jump off! That was definitely the highlight of the day. Each of us took our turn plunging into the glacier lake and swimming back to the iceberg edge. Exhilarating to say the least. We have lived in Alaska for 6 year years now and have done lots of adventures, but this experience is at the top of our list. Even our friend who are lifelong Alaskans agreed it was one of the best adventures they've had. And if that was not enough on the return paddle back we hit a couple awesome rapids that also thrilled us! I would highly recommend trying this or another trip offered by McCarthy River Tours & Outfitters. Safety and professionalism come first, but adventure definitely comes second!

• Awesome half-day river adventure

  We were not sure what our weekend getaway would look like due to COVID but McCarthy River Tours & Outfitters provided an unbelievably fun experience! Health was always considered, as we prepared and got out on the lake. Our guides Sam and Johnny were a blast to hang out with, and made sure we felt safe throughout our trip— especially as we navigated our own inexperience on kayaks. Such a great time. I’d definitely book with them again!

• Johnny is awesome!

  Thank you to Johnny at McCarthy River Outfitters for a great trip from start to finish! Our family had a wonderful time kayaking on Kennicott Glacier Lake and learned a lot about the McCarthy area. Johnny was professional, knowledgeable, safety-minded, energetic, and super fun to hang out with for four hours! We highly recommend McCarthy River Outfitters. Thanks and let us know when you get those t-shirts in stock.

  4 of us had a fantastic day with Amanda on the Kennicott Lake Kayak Trip. We took our own snacks and warm socks and they provided dry suits and footwear. We paddled happily around the glacial lake while Amanda shared her knowledge of the area, history and geology, we got out for a bit and had a snack then back in the kayaks. It was just our group and we decided to cut the paddle a little short and go floating in our dry suits in the "swimming hole". We had a marvelous time and enjoyed spending it with Amanda.

  Caitlin, our awesome guide, was fun, informative and really quite flexible with our small group. So glad we chose McCarthy River Outfitters for our paddle through icebergs so we could get up close and personal with glacier formations. What an incredible way for us to start our travels through the beautiful state of Alaska!
