there was only one other person on the tour and she appeared to have ties to the owner and had just gotten all high-end equipment so a lot of the time was related to her skill level ( well above ours). There was also no sunset ( which I know cannot be guaranteed)

We went on the sunset photo safari with Colin Tyler. He was very personable and knew of all the places to see the sights and wildlife. he was very good at showing us how to use settings on the camera to get to best pictures. Overall, it was a great experience thank you Colin for the great evening. Michael Keller

Terry was a fantastic guide! She taught us some great techniques to get the most out of our cameras. Our photos are STUNNING! We went to 5 different sites during “the golden hour” and were able to beautifully capture Anchorage and its surrounding areas. We highly recommend this experience!

Our photographer guide Terry is so informative and patient with us. My hubby had a problem with his camera. She doesn’t know the solution but she messaged all her friends. Solution to the problem was answered. She saved the day. Saw Beluga whale. Had good sunset pictures from the flat top. Awesome

This was a great tour. Our guide, Terry, was wonderful, showing us some stunning sights and helping us all to improve our photography skills in the process. It was a very fun, beautiful, easy-going and informative tour and I highly recommend it. And you will be very lucky if you get Terry as your guide!

Terry was lovely, she took us looking for moose but was more than happy to stop when I wanted to film a plane taking off. We visited several different sites to take landscape and nature photos, saw moose and beluga whales and watched the sunset from the mountains. Terry was also caring about our slight mobility issues, very much appreciated.

Our guide, Ben is not only a professional, he’s a fabulous person which meant we spent as much time taking exceptional photos as we did talking, learning and enjoying this spectacular part of the country. There were some last minute changes that meant we didn’t get as much drone instruction as we might have hoped for, but Ben got us to a variety of locations outside of parks where we could fly and get great footage. Knowing where to go that is both legal, flyable, and has views requires a guide if you aren’t familiar with the area. We went to a variety of locations for different scenery. We got rivers, glaciers, meadows, bridges, beaches and a moose! We can’t wait to show off our video from Anchorage on our YouTube channel - Well Travelled Life.

Our guide Glenn was AMAZING! He rocked and gave us an incredible tour! We even got hot chocolates and apple ciders at the end! We saw a moose, an eagle, a sand hill crane, and took some amazing long exposure pictures of a waterfall outside of Turnagain! I would 100% go again with Glenn and do another trip with Alaska Photo Treks!!
