“This is the fourth camping tour I have done (two in Africa and one in Australia) and this one was at the top. The guides were ALWAYS professional, friendly, competent and knowledgeable. Well done.”

Gene Simring

“We had a great time. I would definitely consider another one of your trips.”

John Fanta

“I would encourage anyone who has ever thought about going to Alaska to give you guys a call. You make it fun, easy, and economical. Camping allows you to spend the majority of your time actually exploring the places you pick to see. All the trails or activities were either a very short drive (less than 10 minutes), or within walking distance from the campsites. The scenery is awesome, and you’ll get to see just about every animal Alaska has to offer in the area you choose to explore. The key word in all this is “FUN”! ”
