About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- O454ISdianas0 contributionsJeremy provides the very best way to experience the beauty between Seward and Anchorage!Jeremy was an amazing tour guide! He was waiting inside the Seward cruise terminal and gathered us and our luggage up quickly and whisked us away towards the beginning of our land adventure. He obviously knew the roads and area, but we added a Seward Mural Tour to the beginning of our drive as Seward is known for it's many beautiful murals. It was Jeremy's first time adding that which shows just how flexible he is. He had even researched it to provide the best experience for us. He stopped wherever we wanted on our way from Seward to Anchorage after out north-bound Norwegian Cruise. Jeremy had a variety of snacks and water available for us. He knew where to stop for fabulous photos. We were always comfortable and felt safe. It was great letting him watch the road so we could take in the magnificent views. The van was clean, comfortable and well-maintained with large viewing windows. We loved that it was just the 4 of us (plus my service dog). We chose not to stop at the Alaska Wildlife Conservatory because it was raining. Jeremy brought us to ANC airport where we were getting our rental car for the rest of our adventure. We bumped into Jeremy as he was doing another ANC transport the very next day at the Alaska Wildlife Conservatory. He greeted me so warmly, I felt like I had seen a longtime friend. Treat yourself to the perfect beginning or ending to your next cruise. Jeremy is one tour guide that we highly recommend.Written 1 October 2024
- 258debrac0 contributionsExcellent service and so much knowledgeJeremy was extremely informative and gracious. We had to cancel due to weather but he offered us some alternatives and we were all satisfied. He picked us up at our Airbnb. He even brought a forgotten item to us at our house. I would book with him again anytime. Thanks, Jeremy!Written 5 September 2024
- marlenekY5122ZU0 contributionsGlacier & coatal tour--AWESOMEIt was EXCELLENT, and Jeremy was absolutely awesome! He had so much energy (which is GOOD)! It helped to keep us engaged and happy. Although he took a long time to respond to booking this experience, he made it up 200% by taking time to alow us to enjoy sites, talk with us, and help us to learn. It was great to catch so many interesting sites in one trip. Mahalo SSSSOOO much!Written 4 September 2024
- B5236JItonys0 contributionsJeremy will make sure you have an exquisite day. And he picks you up where you are staying!Amazing!! Anything I write here will not do it justice. Jeremy, our tour guide, was the best. He was very knowledgeable and stopped along the way to allow us to see beluga whales and black bears. He also pointed out the bald eagles as we passed them. Small group tour was very nice and he made it enjoyable. Portage glacier cruise put us up close to the glacier. I would highly recommend Jeremy and Alaska Exquisite Travel.Written 4 September 2024
- trestianab0 contributionsVisiting Anchorage Turnagain Arm, Portage Glacier and Wildlife Conservation Center.The tour was beautiful, but I hoped to see more glaciers from close by considering the name of the trop Valley of Glaciers with Portage Glacier Cruise and Wildlife Tour”. We only approach one. At Wildlife Conservation Center the situation was chaotic. There were people on foot, parents with small children, and vehicles driving in any direction on the same road. Everyone was distracted by looking for animals, but the visitors in cars were the only ones safe. I had to constantly look behind and get in the grass or ditch to make room for the cars. I know is not your company fault, but you should address that situation, being local and sending visitors there.Written 3 September 2024
- ryankN457RD0 contributionsAbsolutely the best!Absolutely fantastic tour and day trip! The weather was phenomenal, as were the many views of wildlife and the glacier! Our guide went above and beyond to ensure we were taken care of and the group of people on the trip that day were the best! I live in Alaska but wanted a chill day out while in town, and this did not disappoint!Written 2 September 2024
- R4251UYchristophert0 contributionsImmediately worth it.No matter the weather, this tour is worth it. Jeremy is an excellent guide with all the inside info on hidden gems and must-see attractions. It makes sense that he would choose the glacier cruise and the wild life center, as they simply cannot be missed. Being out on the water, surrounded by mountains, is something I will never forget. And being within 20 yards of a grizzly bear, safely and without the need of bear spray, was truly breathtaking. This tour will astound and set you up for more adventures afterwards, so do not hesitate. Book it.Written 1 September 2024
- t1andjoyce0 contributionsGreat Tour CompanyWonderful tour. Owner/guide is super knowledgable and accommodating. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the Anchorage area.Written 27 August 2024
- kathycL9068ML0 contributionsSo worth it!!I had an amazing experience! The van was clean and comfortable, the stops were informative and fun, but the highlight was Jeremy. He was great! Of all my "tours," he was the best!Written 26 August 2024
- barbararI569IK0 contributionsFun filled adventurous day!I would highly recommend this tour. It was a fun filled adventurous day. The excursion van was very clean & comfortable. The tour guide/driver , Jeremy is very friendly, informative and accommodating. We experienced bonus sightings of a Beluga whale , black bear, and spawning salmon. The Ptarmigan vessel crew enabled us to see and photograph spectacular views of the Portage glacier. The Wildlife Conservation Center does an amazing job of caring for and affording visitors the opportunity to view all of Alaska’s native wildlife in habitats that well mirror the animals’ natural setting.Written 16 August 2024
- T9069XKrickm0 contributionsFantastic Day Trip From AnchorageGreat tour with an excellent tour guide, Jeremy. A very relaxing way to spend the day from Anchorage. Well coordinated hotel pick-up/drop off made the experience that much easier. All stops in this tour were information/picture-worthy (our pics don’t offer more than those already submitted) with the Portage Glacier cruise being the highlight. Jeremy was an excellent, knowledgeable guide with plenty of information to enhance the experience. He also provided plenty of Anchorage recommendations on places to go tips on the trip back that were spot-on.Written 14 August 2024
- wauerc0 contributionsWhat a great day!What an amazing day! We were very fortunate to have great weather and Jeremy's easy going personality and wealth of information added so much to our experience. Had we visited the sites on our own we wouldn't have got nearly as much out of our adventures. We, 4 squabbling siblings plus 2 in-laws, appreciate Jeremy and this experience. We would all highly recommend booking a trip with him.Written 7 August 2024
- V1516TBaj0 contributionsGreat day out from anchorageJeremy, our guide, was informative, witty and upbeat and made sure we got the most out of our Tour. Highly recommend tour as it was relaxing but informative, scenic and got to see native animals up close. Suitable for anyone who can get in/out of a mini busWritten 4 August 2024
- zacharybN721XV0 contributionsGlaciers, Bison, and a Great DayIt was a great experience. The driver, Jeremy, was very knowledgeable and polite. The glacier views were incredible and being able to see the animals at the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center was a pleasure.Written 31 July 2024

It was a wonderful experience. Jeremy is an excellent tour guide. He’s very knowledgeable about Alaska but the most important for me was his kindness towards each person in his tour.
