Ever since Covid - and the expansive interest to visit NP's - I have resorted to group travel. I find it to be more rewarding and sustainable. I love the idea of education and leaving less of a carbon footprint by shuttling together. This i..s my first time traveling with Tours4fun - it seems they have quite the following! So I gave it a shot. Really glad I did - the description of this tour was exactly how it went! Lots of great included meals, free time in town, optional visit to the Sea Life center, hike to Exit Glacier in Kenai Fjords NP, Kayak tour and boat tour. And we had a fun dinner out in Seward - lots of characters in this town! Going to a new environment like this, coming from the East Coast USA - I definitely wanted a guide. I also was looking to have a group of people to travel with, so this was awesome. So happy that we had a fun, lively guide du jour as well - Charlie. You can really tell this tour company puts in the effort to make things seamless - from detailed packing list, reminders, booking procedure, emails with questions responded to in a timely fashion (thanks, Mario!), and of course the organization behind it all. Thank you so much, Charlie and Tours4fun, for giving me a fantastic 1st experience in Alaska - and visiting a truly spectacular region of the USA.Read full review
From the morning of Day 1 - I knew I was in good hands. You can always tell how the guide greets you and how the first morning meeting goes. I felt heard and supported - and knew I picked the right company and tour. We had a group of 10, fr..om 4 different countries - and almost
everyone's first time to Alaska. We visited in late August - so I have heard the mosquitos aren't as bad then - so that was good! Likewise, we even started to see fall colors poke out along the drive down to Seward - really beautiful. Such a different landscape coming from Florida, where I live. I chose this tour because it had a lot of inclusions with activities - but also some free time to check out town - Seward is really cute! Our guide, Joe, was really friendly, fun and knowledgeable to the area. Such great commentary along the way and all throughout for 4 days. My favorite day though was when we did the boat tour out to the glacier, and we saw a Humpback Whale Breach!! So cool to see in the wild - and not often do you get to see that. Thank you for making meals that were fresh, tasty and healthy - and using local ingredients like sea salt from the bay. Truly an enjoyable experience - the camping was fun, too! Tents that keep you dry are always a plus!Read full review

This trip (on the 20th of March) was absolutely amazing: from booking and picking up from hotel, tour itself of course and bring me back to the hotel. Our guide was very polite, friendly, knowledgeable and a very good driver. ***** Thank yo..u so much! I recommend this tour and this
tour agency!Read full review
Myself and my ""new"" husband (we are on our honeymoon) - spent 1 month in Alaska - so we decided to do some independent travel, a group tour and some backcountry hiking. This was the last leg of our adventure - and it was really fun!! We l..oved the drive down from Anchorage - wow, so beautiful! Our guide gave great commentary - and we made lots of fun picture stops along the way and had sandwiches by a pretty waterfall. We have never done much group travel, so it was really nice for someone else to take the reigns and handle the details - we just showed up with our backpacks - and listened to the packing list. So many activities in 4 days - and all well organized. Weather (as I am sure everyone knows) in AK can be wild - so just being patient and easy going is the key to success. We had fun at camp - great location. Great camping equipment - tent durability and good sleeping mats. Making group meals in the wind is
challenging - but definitely adds to the adventure. We had fun travel mates too - from Asia and Canada.Great group - and our guide, Marie, was hilarious. Fantastic explanations of the glaciation and mountain
formations - and we had awesome local guides too on the boat ride and Kayak tour. We will definitely travel with this tour agency again - maybe next time in Canada - since they do tours there also! Thank
you, Tours4fun!Read full review
It was a great value for money trip. After coming back, I recommended this tour group to my friends. I hope such a good tour group can be chosen by everyone.
Everyone was very friendly and the guides were engaging, careful, thorough with how they rolled out the schedule every day and planned around the weather.
