What people love about touring Alaska solo
- Alaska Kenai & Denali Adventure
Very good guide, great trip
- Alaska Kenai Adventure 9 Days
Me and my wife wanted to visit Alaska and when we saw this tour it was exactly what we wanted! We had an amazing time in Alaska and I believe it was because all the conditions that got mixed on our trip: the nature, the tour people and our guide. Thanks David for the awesome time! Our group was relatively small and the trip felt more like a private tour from the beginning until the end. David was really knowledgeable of Alaska, its wildlife and nature. You could see his passion for it when he was explaining us the wildlife and stories while driving. During the trip there were a variety of activities that are suitable for everyone. My favorite ones were kayaking and wildlife watching. I cannot express enough how good David's eyesight was for detecting bears, goats, whales, otters, you name it! Without his help, I think we would have missed it all. Great experience and Great job Infinite Adventures :)

What an amazing experience we have just had with Infiniate Adventures. We have done many group trips of this nature and it’s always difficult to chose a provider - so much depends on the tour guide. As Infiniate Adventures is a small company you deal directly with the owners at all times and they are determined to make each and every passenger’s experience individual and special. Dave and Tory (and Mike!) have buckets of energy, fun, enthusiasm, knowledge and calmness - they made EVERYTHING exciting and fun … even the drives - which were planned to be minimal, informative and were interspersed with stops to explore - the music was great too!! The range of activities on offer in each area were extremely well thought through, planned and catered for every interest. We would travel anywhere with this company - knowing that wherever they go it will be extremely well thought through, planned and fun from the moment you board the magic bus! A HUGE thank you to Infiniate Adventures for creating such amazing memories.
