Our group of 11 (3 families) took the Private Arctic Circle with Northern Lights tour out of Fairbanks with Mike. He was the best. Mike is very knowledgeable in all things Aurora. We had different tours every night (4) and Mike, hands down, was the best guide. We were very lucky to see the Aurora our first night and Mike took great pictures for us. Would highly recommend!

My mom and I did our tour with Bill. We had a great time, we were able to do a long walk and see a lot of different places on the glacier. The pick-up, ride and tour were smooth and very professional. We enjoyed our hike and our lunch at the lodge. Bill was a great guide and I recommend this tour if you’re in the Anchorage area and want to explore the glacier.

The views and experience was amazing. Certainly an experience I will never forget. The planning was seamless thanks to the wonderful planning from Rochelle at Greatland Adventures! We were a little uncertain with the weather, but she made sure to check in before we drove up to the launch. Highly recommend!

"Greatland Adventures provided an unforgettable experience! Mike went above and beyond to find the auroras, explained everything with great detail and passion, and fulfilled my wife’s lifelong dream. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide or tour. Highly recommended!" Lucy & Rafa

Had a wonderful experience going on the hike in Matanuska Glacier with Bill and Dawn. They had walked us through the history and the science behind the glaciers. A must visit experience in Anchorage Ak. Got some glacier ice back home to drink it!!

My husband and I visited Alaska for our 10 year wedding anniversary. We took the Matanuska Glacier tour with Bill and the Northern Lights tour with Matt. We had such an amazing time with both of our guides. They were knowledgeable, safe, funny, and passionate about what they do! They made these experiences unforgettable!

After 3 days of a 5-day trip to Fairbanks, all with the intention of seeing the aurora, I was freaking out because the cloud cover wouldn't budge. Despite having a list of the most popular spots to see the lights, I was batting .000. So I did the thing I had told myself I wouldn't and booked a chaser tour. And it was completely worth it! I called Greatland Adventures at 4 p.m. on the day of and they had 1 spot. Mike picked me up five hours later and I'd spend the next 6 hours with him and a fun group of like-minded people who happened to pick a rough week to visit the area. While driving around, Mike was not only knowledgeable about the aurora and able to explain in plainspeak with colorful metaphors but also full of other stories from his travels and a great conversation. He kept his van-ful of people engaged the whole time. We ended up trying three spots, using his, his partner's and his company's office team (which stayed up with us) to track weather patterns in addition to aurora intensity and attraction. The first spot didn't work for the lights but provided an amazing night sky view until the clouds returned. The second also didn't pan out. But the third, which happened to be at Greatland's property in Fairbanks that Mike also calls home when he's working, provided terrific views and even better pictures considering the circumstances. I wasn't able to find the lights like this on my own. I told Mike he saved my trip. By 6 a.m., when I was dropped back off at my rental, most everyone was still buzzing with excitement.

Bill was very enthusiastic and excited to share his knowledge of Alaska. He went out of his way to make sure we got the best views and was very attentive to the needs of our group. We made many different stops that showcased the incredible diversity of Alaska. The weather cooperated and we got many of the best pictures of our weeklong trip. Go Chiefs!

Outstanding service from knowledgeable guide. Enjoyed spending time with them, they provided excellent service and insight. Very nice way to explore Alaska

The views of the glacier were spectacular. We lucked out as fall was starting so we got the added bonus of seeing the leaves changing. Diego was an excellent guide. He was very knowledgeable and took into account everyone's abilities. He would assist where possible or show alternate paths if you are unable. This was a great experience. Don't worry about walking on the ice. You will wear spikes to grip the ice. As long as you listen to your guide, everything is safe and you will walk away with some cool pics.

We were fortunate enough to have Phil V. as our tour guide. He knows everything about Alaskan history, hiking, restaurants, wildlife, and more. We have never had a better guide. It was luck that put us together for 3 1/2 days. We enjoyed every minute with him. He took all the stress out of our first trip to Alaska.

My husband and I got a private tour since we were the only ones that showed up - which was awesome. The tour guide was friendly and casual. At times, it felt like we were moving at a slower pace than necessary and I would have liked to have made it further up the glacier. Still think it was a great experience, but be aware you are only on the ice for a couple hours - you are not frozen in time with the glacier!

This is once in life time tour seeing glacier up close and walking on the glacier! Seeing caves and crevices of glacier! Breath taking views and life time memory

Great tour! All 9 members of our group (from young adults to seniors) enjoyed the tour with guide Tim. He was very informative and answered all our questions. Tim texted before our tour to confirm the time/location and showed up on time. Would highly recommend this tour for a short, informative tour of Anchorage. It was perfect for our free day in Anchorage after our cruise and before our evening flight home.

Was so amazing. Our guide Alyssa was fantastic. She told us all about the glacier and answered all our questions. She kept us safe and on our feet. She pointed out different things about the glacier and why it can be very dangerous. Very knowledgeable. She was fun to be on the glacier with. Great sense of humor. If you go ask for her to be your guide.
