Our tour guide Casey and Ryan were amazing and kept giving us lots of information regarding the ice glaciers and how they have receded in the past. They made sure that the sections of glacier area were safe for us to walk by by scrutinizing it themselves before and very eagerly took pictures for us throughout the trip. Overall a worthwhile trip and I would suggest anyone to visit the glaciers if its in their bucket list before it all melts away.My sister and I partook in the canoe tour and glacier trek on July 27, 2021.

My sister and I partook in the canoe tour and glacier trek on July 27, 2021. The tour guides- Baxter and Andrew- were fantastic. Both guides made the trip memorable, and both extremely kind and helpful. The guides answered all of our questions and were very informative. We felt very safe and comfortable on the tour. The canoe trip and hike was not overly exhaustive, and certainly worth the effort. We would highly recommend this experience. As a bonus, we got some amazing photos! The tour guides took several for us and they turned out great.
