Get Up and Go Tours

Just back from a FANTASTIC week on their FAMILY EXPLORER TOUR, we just wanted to express our praise and gratitude while the experience is fresh. From start to finish it was an excellent trip, beginning with the talents and approach of our guides, Dave and Terrance, continuing with the superb itinerary, owing also to our compatibility with the other family on the tour, and including all of the intangible, unpredictable, unplanned, and value-​added aspects of the overall Get Up and Go! Alaska Family Explorer tour experience.
A few items of note:
–Guide Dave’s cooking was extraordinary — tasty, plenty, timely
–He and Guide Terrance handled each person/​experience with utmost patience and professionalism
–They added much with their vast knowledge of Alaska, flora, fauna, people, places, etc.
–The itinerary was perfect — diverse, great mix of places and activities
–Pace was just right — keeping good and busy doing fun stuff, with some downtime as well
–OPTIONAL ACTIVITIES were wonderful mix and we enjoyed each of them so much — paddling, ice climbing, Seward Sea Life Center, Denali rafting, Denali bus tour…
–No frills, and yet no corners cut — we were comfortable without cushy, just what we came for
–So much more… hikes!-glaciers-campgrounds-LODGE!!!-laughs…
We are still energized from all of the fun and excitement of the trip, and we are very satisfied customers, happily willing to recommend this trip HIGHLY.
Geoff the owner added value by taking a phone call with us well in advance, and gave us the advice we took and flew in to Juneau before our tour and hiked there and then took the ferry up to Haines and had a wonderful time. Thanks Geoff!
If you go, don’t expect much from The Inlet Hotel and Suites in Anchorage if you stay there the night before your trip departs. Their customer service was nil.

We had THE BEST trip with them. They are a local company with local guides who are very knowledgeable. The trip was amazing, and could not have been better. DO IT!
