Alaskan Adventures
Salmon Berry Tours
If you are looking to experience the real Alaska without the commercialized “big box” crowd, we highly recommend checking these folks out. Based in Anchorage, this local team shares our love for the wild landscapes, sustainable travel, and unforgettable memories. From winter northern lights chasers to summer glacier hikers, their phenomenal local guides ensure every guest leaves with a deeper appreciation for Alaska.
Birding By Bus
An eco-friendly, accessible, and surprisingly rewarding way to experience the world of birds. By trading the driver’s seat for a passenger window, birders can skip the stress of navigation and focus entirely on scanning the canopies, fields, and roadside wires for avian life.
Marathon Helicopters
Our coastal playground is spectacular from the ground, but seeing it from the air is a true bucket-list experience. From quick, adrenaline-pumping drop-offs in the Mount Marathon bowl to hour-long flying expeditions over building-sized icebergs and hidden waterfalls, they take outdoor exploration to the next level. Every flight guarantees a window seat, incredible wildlife viewing, and a warm, friendly local crew ready to show you the Last Frontier.
