  Our family at five at the best time right and snowmobile’s with Brady. It was amazing scenery, he was a great instructor, and we even saw a moose. We are... read more all ready planning our summer ATV tour. With these guys!

  Awesome and memorable moment. Doug took care of my family on the tour. And the scheduler was extremely friendly and caring.

  Our favorite part was our guide, Doug. He has the best sense of humor, knows a lot of history, and has some great stories to pepper in. He's also great... read more at watching to make sure we were behind him and he took awesome photos and videos of us snowmobiling so we didn't have to--and then he just airdropped them into my phone. We've snowmobiled before, but this was so much more fun and different since you don't have to stick to a trail--Doug forged us new paths!

  I had THE ABSOLUTE best time. The scenery was amazing, but the people are even better. Doug is a fantastic guide. Mattie is just a treat... read more to talk to. 10/10 would recommend.

  This will forever be the coolest trip my husband and I have taken together. We did the winter snow machine multi-day option and spent two days out on the... read more trails. The first day, we rode to the Knik Glacier. I loved the stunning, open landscape. The second day, we rode more technical trails from the Puriton Creek Trailhead. My husband's heart was full, as these are his favorite types of trails. Again, the views were beyond outstanding. Both days we saw plenty of wildlife. Dan was our guide and took pictures and video throughout both days that we will forever cherish. There was no way we could have documented the trip this way ourselves. Dan was a wonderful guide with his warm, patient, humble demeanor. He is a wealth of knowledge on the area and great fun to chat with. Prior to planning this trip, I explored MANY outfits in several different states that strived to provide adventures on snow machines. Alaska Backcountry Adventure Tours provided the most authentic experience. This was key for us. They also were most professional in planning (thank you Mattie), which increased my confidence. My husband and I have adventured in Alaska winters before and thought we had the right gear. We ended up swapping much of what we brought in outerwear for the high-quality, good-looking gear Alaska Backcountry provided. They also keep new machines that are well-maintained. I loved the heated grips! We expected we could be a little chilly on our rides but never were. Overall, I cannot recommend this trip enough. We planned this trip six months in advance and had plenty of time to build up our expectations. It far exceeded anything we could've hoped for. When Mattie tells you she's got accommodations, food, clothing, and adventure covered, she means it. This trip was perfection. I'm already looking at their summer trips and definitely want to try the 5-day winter trip.

  Amazing adventure on snowmachines to the Knik valley and glacier. Guide was so knowledgeable and kept us safe and gave us the best hot chocolate midway. We met other adventurous... read more people. Easy one hr drive on clear roads north of Anchorage. So much fun and easy to book. The views are mindblowing.

  The owner(s) and the guide were terrific!! They made a great snowmobile experience even more special with their safety, knowledge and experience. The gear that they provided was clean, it... read more fit well, and it kept us dry and warm!
In addition to the breathtaking scenery, we saw a group of 4 bull moose.

I highly recommend Alaska Backcountry Adventure Tours and I plan on booking an ATV glacier tour with them this spring!

  We had a great time on our snowmobile tour. Doug was a great guide. The scenery was beautiful. We saw three moose!
