Rated out of 5 stars based on customer reviews.
- Maritza was our guide. She made it quite easy, enjoyable and educative. It’s an unique experience. Two hour glacier walk was quite comfortable and fun. Gift shop ladies were quite helpful and respectful.Driving on the off-road from the main road needs to be little careful.It’s worth spending that much money and yes don’t forget to generously tip the guides for their hard effort.Thank you Glacier Tours!! Cheers!read moreread less

Thomas Prenveille5/25/2026Amazing amazing amazing! Our guide Jason was fantastic. Gave us plenty of information and had a great energy throughout. He also took so much care to take us through easier routes as we had a couple of people with bad knees in our group. We truly appreciated the slower pace tour, so my mom could have this once in a lifetime experience, thanks Jason & co!The glacier itself was mind blowing, especially the little pool up there. We will be backread moreread less

Ask her about her diesel Beetle and the story behind it.Rine(Catherine) is an excellent tour guide, very knowledgeable and eager to help and teach.Highly recommend this tour!read moreread less
Luis Lugo5/06/2026Our family thoroughly enjoyed this experience. Just show up with warm clothes and boots and they take care of the rest! We learned so much about the glacier and got to appreciate its size, beauty, and activity up close. Our guide was super kind and knowledgeable. The organization is kid-friendly and we found the 2 hour hike very manageable with elementary age children. My only warning is that you definitely need a 4WD vehicle to get there… the road to get to the set up building is an adventure experience itself!read moreread less
Mark Silvestri4/18/2026 - Sam was our guide. He did a great job explaining and kept the tour exciting. I would definitely recommend this tour. Nothing to strenuous, a few steep climbs going up the glacier. They do provide cleats and snow pants.read moreread less
Brittany John4/02/2026Had an absolutely incredible experience with Glacier Tours! The views were breathtaking—it felt like stepping onto an alien ice planet. Our guide, Nick, was fantastic; he was incredibly knowledgeable about the glacier and more than happy to answer all our questions.A word of caution for future visitors: We unfortunately slid off the road while driving on Glacier Park Rd. We were very lucky that the staff managed to tow us out. Please be extra careful and drive slow on your way in!read moreread less
Xiaoyi Peng3/31/2026Very beautiful place and a great guide — the tour itself was really enjoyable. The only downside was that tips were strongly expected. When we paid for the tour, the cashier asked how much cash we wanted to withdraw for tips and mentioned that $20 per person is usually recommended. At the end of the tour we were reminded about tipping again. Considering the tour already costs $160, it felt a bit strange to have tips pushed so strongly. If staff feel underpaid, it might be better to address that internally rather than putting pressure on guests.read moreread less
Yana3/14/2026My Glacier Tour guide "Morgan" was amazing. She was very knowledgeable, attentive and professional. She made the experience that much better. I would definitely recommend the tour to anyone that has never seen a Glacier up close. Yet alone get to walk on and through one. Thank you Morgan for an amazing experience.read moreread less

Jinho Son2/03/2026This was an amazing tour to matanushka glacier in alska. I was disappointed because the helicopter glacier tour was canceled due to weather. My fiance and I had limited time in Anchorage Alaska before leaving. So I couldn't risk wasting another day so we booked the glacier tour to matanushka glacier with Glacier Tours and they were amazing. We drove to matanushka glacier from Anchorage that took about 2 1/2 hrs on Glen hwy which was easy to drive on. When we got there they immediately guided us and got us going to the glacier. They guided us the whole way and explained everything along the way. It was amazing and beautiful.read moreread less
Chris “Chris0076”1/16/2026Our family of 5 had an amazing experience! Our children range from 5-12. Our guide made sure the hike was enjoyable for all parties involved. Small children (ice slides), preteens (ice caves and fun facts), and adults, alike! Additionally, we went in December 2025 during a week where it was -20's F. We are not accustomed to that kind of weather living in the coastal southeast USA. The tour was so fun and we were moving enough that we didn't hear a single complaint from our children! Truly incredible! Would love to do this again!read moreread less
Anzea Dukes1/06/2026Morgan was our guide and she was absolutely phenomenal. I loved every second of the tour. She was informative, funny, and genuinely cared about the guests the entire time. I would 100% recommend this tour, especially in the winter. Make sure to follow the guidelines on their website and come prepared—it makes all the difference. This tour truly is for everyone, and the sights are incredible. The glacier was absolutely amazing. Learning about the history of the glacier and the science behind the ice made the experience even more memorable. There were plenty of photo opportunities, and we were given ample time to take advantage of them. The rest of the staff was incredibly helpful and got us on the tour without a hitch. It’s clear the entire team works very hard to provide a fantastic experience from start to finish.read moreread less
Nicholas Welker12/31/2025This was my second time doing the glacier tour and it did not disappoint. The company offers a really great military discount and the guides are knowledgeable and extremely friendly. I took my parents who were visiting Alaska from out of town for the first time and they were thrilled with the experience. A great way to see the beauty of Alaska!read moreread less

Craig Osborn3/16/2025Absolutely amazing adventure! We had family visiting and decided to try this tour out, and I’m so glad we did. Booking was easy; we booked via text, and the company was extremely responsive and provided all the details we needed to be successful. Our group of 6 (5 adults + 1 18-month old) enjoyed ourselves and our guide, Naomi. I unfortunately forgot my coat at home, but they had coats and pants to borrow. They also have REI carriers that we took advantage of for my son, and multiple restrooms are available at the start/end of the tour.read moreread less
Tiara Smith3/16/2025Definitely a MUST see & do adventure!! The tour guides are very knowledgeable and friendly! They made the experience worth while! I did this tour on a whim and let me tell you, I'm so glad I did it. If you have the opportunity, you won't regret joining the hike either! They are very patient, helpful, and understanding toward people with injuries. 😊read moreread less
