Took this service from Anchorage to Seward in August and had a scare for my life. We booked an early morning transfer from Anchorage to Seward at 6:00AM. We were picked up without problems (except we had noticed the condition of the bus when we got in - old, junky, cheap small bus not the same as pictured on their... More

I'm sorry to hear about your experience, but I believe this may be a case of mistaken identity. We did not experience any vehicle fires this past season as you have described in your review. Your trip may have been with one of the various other transportation companies which also provides service to Seward. Admittedly, there are several companies with... More

Took Anchorage Tours and Transfer form our cruise ship docking in Seward to get to Anchorage. By far the best bang for your buck. Less expensive and more personal than cruise ship transfers. Pick-up was a bit confusing. There are many shuttles with similar names at the cruise ship terminal. Our dirver was 20 minutes late, which had us a... More

I booked the shuttle from Anchorage to Seward to meet our cruise ship. This was the one part of our 16-day trip that HAD to happen, so I was concerned. I e-mailed Dan to re-confirm before we left for Alaska and he assured me that we'd be picked up. On the day of the trip, Dan called to say they... More

There were 3 stops. 1st at Beluga Point for some quick photos. 2nd stop was at Alaska Wildlife Conservation Centre (http://www.alaskawildlife.org/). The entry fee to Alaska Wildlife... More

The shuttle was great. As with any vacation, you always hope that everything works smoothly. This was awesome example of that! I received a follow-up email to confirm my pickup location, and the shuttle was right on time. It was very well marked and the pickup location was easy to find.

Excellent, friendly service . Pick up was efficient and we were dropped off at our car hire location in Anchorage. Door to door service with two photo stops and an hour at the wildlife conservation park. Price was very reasonable. Highly recommended.

We had a wonderful experience with Anchorage Tours and Transfers. We told them where we would be in Seward, Alaska. They found us first. Our driver was like having our own tour guide to the area. Very knowledgeable. Wonderful experience.
