Kenai Backcountry Adventures - Seward, 11724 Seward Hwy, Suite A, Seward, AK 99664
With a perfect rating across hundreds of reviews, this outfit consistently delivers on memorable Alaska adventures, from glacier treks to river rafting. The guides really make the experience here – Brandon, Derek, Mary, and Jared all get enthusiastic shout-outs for being knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely passionate about what they do. People love that guides take their time, answer questions, and even drop guests directly at their accommodations. The glacier hikes seem especially popular, with travelers calling them bucket-list experiences worth the physical effort. The company handles logistics smoothly with hotel pickups and well-prepared equipment. One traveler noted the Resurrection River rafting felt shorter than expected with multiple stops breaking up the actual time on the water, though they still enjoyed their guide. Most guests, however, feel they got exactly what they hoped for – whether it's standing on crystalline blue ice, spotting eagles and salmon, or conquering challenging terrain with capable guides who genuinely love their work.
Wildly successful trek. Loved it. Andre was a font of knowledge and a joy to hike with. Felt very safe on the glacier but still felt like an adventure was had. Fav part was the zombie walk.
