What sets our tours apart from the rest? Simply where we bike and our guides! The Tony Knowles Coastal Trail is one of the most beautiful and dynamic paved bike paths in the nation. Our guides create a story that connects the trail from start to finish. Sharing history, flora and fauna facts, and spotting wildlife along the way!

It’s time to come out of hibernation from the winter (although waking up to snow ❄️ on the grass was interesting).

Today, Anchorage got our first cruise ship of the season, officially marking the start of our summer.

PLUS, here’s a photo of our first moose, 🫎 one of NINE we saw on the Coastal Cruise tour.

Happy Summer 2024 everyone!

We have been in Fairbanks this week for the annual travel conference.

It’s been a fantastic week of catching up with old friends and making new ones. We visited the one evening and took a walk through history by vehicle, starting with bikes! This late 1800’s bike is a classic!

Big wilderness on big tires looking for big wildlife!
The Chugach State Park is just 30 minutes from downtown Anchorage and offers pristine mountain view’s and non technical terrain for mountain biking.

We do what we do because we love Alaska and we love people. Before the season kicked off in earnest we took the team on a cruise. In true Whittier fashion, it rained the whole day. But we know how to have fun in the rain and it brings out the blue of the glaciers! Over the next week I will introduce each of our amazing guides! They are ready and excited to share an experience of a lifetime with you while your in Anchorage.

If you have already been out with us this summer than you already know!
