What people love about touring Alaska solo
- Alaska Kenai Adventure 9 Days
WOW! what an adventure! I had never been to Alaska before and was a little nervous about going by myself, but Dave, Natalie, and Carolina made everyone feel so welcome. I settled right in. During the 9 days on the trip, we saw Humpback Whales, Orcas, Sea Otters, Sea Lions, Seals, Dahl Sheep, Moose, Glaciers, Tons of Eagles, and I did the Bear Viewing trip to Lake Clark which was the Adventure of a Lifetime. we saw over 20 Brown Bears and 5 or 6 within 20 feet away. I had such a great time, I already booked the Denali trip for next Summer!
- Alaska Kenai & Denali Adventure
Amazing!! I just cannot say enough about this trip. It was my first solo trip and it was completely out of my comfort zone. Out guide was fantastic and very personable. Everything was perfect and I cant wait to go bakc to Alaska!!
- Alaska Adventure - 20 Days
I wanted to visit Alaska but with so much to do and see and with limited resources for a solo traveler, i decided to book a tour. When looking for a tour, i looked for a company that could offer me the best value, unique experiences and additional expeditions. Along came Dave & Nat. I love that these are two individuals who truly love what they are doing. They go above and beyond to caterer to your needs and to make sure that your adventure is memorable.. they are both fun and knowledgeable. Dave is very informative and is a great cook, while Nat is very accomodating and helps to make all feel welcomed. Asides from the great value, i loved being able to travel in their concerted school bus. So much better than being in a cramped van sitting elbow to elbow with fellow travelers. I have traveled with many different companies, and Infinite Adventures was by far the best all around tour company thatbi have been with. If only they were located in South America and Africa. You can't go wrong with Nat & Dave.
