This trip is offered as a custom, semi-private adventure
Our trips are custom, planned just for you. And these tours are somewhat private, so you’re not in a crowd. You’ll have your personal Guide for the duration of the trip but will at times be joining others for some of the activities. For example, whitewater rafting will be with one of our partner operators and there will be other guests on that adventure. At Alpenglow Luxury Camping you’ll meet other guests but will have privacy at your tent and in reserved times for the hot tub. We’d be happy to talk with you more about the private nature of our trips.
Want to drive yourself? Many of these same activities, including Luxury Camping, may be booked through our partner website MICA Guides if you prefer an option that is not all-inclusive.

Itinerary
Day 1: We’ll pick you up in Anchorage and head south to sea kayak in Prince William Sound for the day. Then we’re off for an overnight adventure in the historic gold rush town of Hope, Alaska (pop. 192). A comfy cabin will be the accommodations for the night.
Day 2: Whitewater rafting on Six Mile Creek! This series of Class IV and V rapids is intense to put it simply. You have to pass a swim test, in the river, before joining the trip. After the whitewater action it’s on to Glacier View and the comforts of Luxury Camping at Alpenglow. A great meal with an unforgettable view followed by a soak in the hot tub.
Day 3: Glacier Overnight Adventure. Start with a helicopter and add ice climbing on some of the best features of the Matanuska Glacier. End with a great meal and a glacier glamping experience.
Day 4: Wake up to fresh brewed coffee on a glacier. More exploring before a helicopter ride back out. Return to Anchorage.
