Lori is very knowledgeable about the animal conservation center and the area covered in travel to it. She is a wealth of information. Very pleasant day. She had waters and a box of snacks.

A Touch of Alaska

Kathy_S, Sep 2025

The best part for me was the scenic outlooks along Turn again arm and the conservation center for animal viewing. They do some rehab work on animals needing support. The driver was very informative on the tour.

Cheryl_D, Sep 2025

Enjoyable, seeing animals up close is an amazing experience. Also, having watched Dr. Oakley the Yukon Vet, who volunteers at the Sanctuary and has filmed episodes here, really brings yhe Sactuary to light.

What a day!

Bridget_W, Sep 2025

Hotel pick up and return was a huge bonus. Our guide, Billy learned our names and helped us get the very best out of the day with his knowledge of the areas we visited. The Portage glacier boat tour rocked with plenty of photo ops. The trip to the AWCC was made even better with Billy's ability to lead us to the best viewing of the animals because he was so familiar with the site. I highly recommend this tour experience and commend Billy for an amazing day.

Great to see the animals!

Susy_C, Sep 2025

What a great few hours with Lori, she was great fun and informative and we had lots of free time to see the animals, really a good tour!

Michael_S, Sep 2025

Lori is great operator shame the weather was bad the trip was called off on our there for safety reasons, the wind was blowing the van around the road. She offered us a refund which we declined, as she still has costs to cover.

Great tour in Anchorage

Leonardo_S, Aug 2025

Great way to see sights in Alaska!

James_W, Aug 2025

Great 1/2 day trip! Nice trip to the Center with lots of beautiful scenery. Lori was an excellent guide telling us stories along the route. Complimentary snacks and water were served and Lori was thoughtful about stops along the way. Her knowledge of individual animals at the Center was impressive.

Cheryn_p, Jul 2025

It’s a long ride to the animal conservatory, almost back to Whittier we’re we left the cruise ship Not as many animals as I expected

Great tour!

Jeff_F, Jul 2025

We were picked up at our hotel on time and greeted warmly by Lori. Everything was well coordinated and well communicated. She was very informative and we were able to see some of Alaska’s wildlife!

AWCC 4-hour tour - Raines

Brian_R, Jul 2025

Wonderful tour, guide is eccentric but friendly. Loved seeing wildlife in a conservation/native habitat up close and personal. Didn’t feel rushed, looking forward to a train and glacier tour next time!

Incredible tour!!

Merrill_H, Jul 2025

Our tour guide, Tony was incredible and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide! He was fun, positive and full of interesting facts and personal stories. Since he is a native, he was able to separate fact from fiction and help us understand the Alaskan landscapes! We marveled at the animals at the conservation center as there were animals we have never seen before! So up CLOSE and personal! You have to to experience this tour. Ask for Tony!!

Response from Host, Jul 2025

What a great review - thank. you! We're so happy you enjoyed your day with Tony. I hope the rest of your time in Alaska is just as amazing! Lori

Brilliant afternoon seeing wildlife

Anthony_P, Jun 2025

Great experience with great guide Billy who took good care of us fantastic to see all of the animals up close.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

I'm happy you had a great afternoon with Billy - he's a terrific guide. Thanks for giving us such a nice rating and review. Lori

Highly recommended tour.

Bruce_O, Jun 2025

The tour was great. Our tour guide/driver, Billy was the best. He had stops along the way for photos and even made an unplanned stop to show us a very scenic area. Billy drove around the preserve and showed us the different areas. A must do tour!

Excellent tour, would do it all over again

Georgia_C, Jun 2025

They are in for a real treat, especially if they get Tony as their tour guide he was so knowledgeable and entertaining.

Tony the driver

jodi_b, Jun 2025

The wildlife center is okay. I assume the animals are well cared for but it just didn’t feel good being there. The bad part was our driver, Tony, who talked poorly of other tour guides, said he would never bring a friend here and spent the ride telling personal stories of animals he has shot

Beautiful and Wild

Cerrita_P, Jun 2025

We hit the jackpot with a gorgeous sunny day for this tour! Billy, our guide, was very excited about the sun being out as well! We were so grateful that hotel pickup was a part of the service! Billy was very personable and a great host making sure we all met each other with nine of us in the group. Seats were comfy and we could see both sides of the roads we were traveling. Alaska speaks for itself and the road toward Seward is beautiful. Being here in June there is still snow on the upper heights of the mountains! Billy gave up photo opportunities and places to see that other tours may not stop for. The wildlife center was awesome with the animals being very active:). The black bears were talking to each other and a new one enjoyed twirling a long tree branch as a toy!! As we returned to Anchorage on a stop we saw a waterfall and a small baby moose sitting across the water from us near a small cave entrance?? Not sure. We all hoped there was a mom somewhere nearby for it! Amazing things. Just a taste of Alaska before we leave for our cruise tour today and what an enjoyable experience it all was with Billy’s thoughtful guidance!!

Great afternoon!

Carolyn_S, Jun 2025

Thanks to Billy, we had a lovely drive from Anchorage to the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center. The stops along the way were beautiful even in the rain. Great afternoon. Thanks!

Beautiful wildlife and scenery not to be missed.

Kyle_K, May 2025

Beautiful experience with scenic and up close wildlife opportunities. Brad our guide was fantastic. Full of insight and stories of the area. Although slightly overcast the beauty of Alaska was still evident. Brown bears, black bears, bison, moose, bald eagles and many others were among those that were observed. Great tour that is a must see.
