Me Bill was very communicative about the tour and everything you need to know even before we arrived. He is knowledgeable about the trip having worked on the pipeline. It was a long day but I never felt like I could rest- there was too much to see and talk about. There were plenty of rest/bathroom stops. You need to take food! There are not shops along the way. Mr Bill has snacks and beverages but you need to supplement with sandwiches. He is a great guide! Make sure you listen so, you do well on the quiz at the end of the tour. This tour is a great value

Small group(6) in a roomy van. Mr Bill was our host for this tour. He is a well informed historian of the area and loves Alaska. Got to know each other via question and answer games during the 12 hour tour. Several stops along the way for bathroom and sightseeing. Good group of well- traveled companions.

Mr. Bill was the best tour guide I’ve ever had! He made the entire experience wonderful. The natural beauty of the world that you see on this tour is breathtaking. We even got to see the Aurora - which was a bonus! 10/10, will do this again!
