It was a fabulous trip. We saw plenty of Alaskan animals and gorgeous scenery. It was an excellent combination of physically active and passive activities. The cruise on Prince William Sound was exciting, relaxing, and educational. Lucas, our tour guide was thoughtful, patient, and knowledgeable on all things Alaska. He had jokes! The choice of hotel in Anchorage needs rethinking. The Denali Bluffs accommodations were great, and the Best Western was good. It was the only one to offer breakfast. Breakfast really should be, at the least, the one meal offered at all the hotels. The location for all three was very good. I recommend this tour! Alaska wilderness is gorgeous!Show more

This tour was amazing and exceeded expectations! Our Cosmos guide, Kip, was awesome, as were our guides for all included and optional tours (Alaska railroad, Doggoneit Kennel Visit, Denali wilderness tour, Prince William sound boat ride, etc). All of the cities visited were awesome and all of the stops in between were so well planned with great scenery/views and opportunity to stretch and explore. Although the lack of a detailed itinerary (with times, durations, etc) prior to the trip bothered my OCD planner self, I could not have imagined a more perfect tour of interior Alaska! Our family of 4 loved every minute of this Alaskan Adventure!Show more
