Wildlife viewing is common, but they are wild and sometimes we see them and sometimes we don't. Statistically; we see primarily moose (on about 50% of our tours), and less frequently seen are caribou, bears, fox, coyote, hares, and wolves.

Most of our guides are also licensed commercial drone pilots (FAA part 107), and we utilize drones (weather dependent) to help get you some stunning drone footage to share with family and friends and wildlife photography.

These tours are small and personal, with a maximum of 6 guests per vehicle, each of our guides were raised in Alaska, or have lived in Alaska most their lives, and they will answer your questions and share with you their personal experiences and stories living in Alaska, the Last Frontier.
