Alaska Off-Road Adventures…read more What a ride! This was hands-down one of the best experiences we had while visiting Alaska; it's an incredibly unique way to get out and see the amazing mountain views and Alaskan terrain. Whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced ATV rider, Alaska Off-Road Adventures has something for everyone. Ken took the time to get us acquainted with the vehicles and then led us on a fun ride over many varying terrain elements. He had a wonderful personality and really made this trip feel special. We had 4 drivers and 1 rider with varying degrees of ATV-familiarity and by the end of the tour every single one of us had grins from ear-to-ear (and just the right amount of mud splattered on us!). Ken's ATV tour is something that my family still talks about months after our trip. If you're choosing between activities while visiting, or passing through, Talkeetna, I can't recommend this tour enough! It blows your run-of-the-mill tour out of the water!

We had so much fun on this tour. We are in our 60's and expected to drive down a few roads in…read moresearch of wildlife and views. Ken (tour operator) after giving us helmets, boots, and rain gear, took us out to test our ability on flat gravel roads. Within minutes we hit rocky, hilly, sometimes water covered terrain. What a ride! Ken stopped at photo spots and even rode ahead of us to get really great action shots. We will always remember this as a highlight of our Alaska vacation. Thanks Ken! The two hour tour left us with smiles on our faces and well worked shoulder muscles. Well worth the money! Just do it!

I'm a little surprised by all the glowing reviews. This was an okay tour but we were a little…read moredisappointed. It felt like we were playing follow the leader for 5 mi up and 5 mi back on a largely straight trail. The endpoint is a lovely home with a picturesque stream but we were expecting that once we got there we'd actually be able to freestyle on the ATVs a bit. This was simply our expectations, there's nothing in their advertising that says this will happen. Even so, if you're hoping to have an exciting ride, this was kind of tame. We never really got above 15 mph on the trail. The guides were great, nothing against them. Just really missed our expectations. Based on the other reviews, most people seem to love it.

Overall a good experience. The guides were excellent and very knowledgeable about the history of…read morethe area and the layout of the land. Dennis's cabin where you drive to is a sweet piece of the backwoods. Nice, clean, lunch was a really good, although it's a 1/2 sandwich. Shooting the guns were fun. The only negative is you go as fast as the slowest person in the group. Our party of 5 was put together with a party of 4 70+ year olds, needless to stay a real downer. When you go to the original homestead, it is mosquito ridden make sure you use the deet offered or pay the consequences.

And experience he said he would always treasure. Highly recommended.

We asked Dave to organize a helicopter fishing trip for a group of us last summer stuck at a lodge…read morethat had poor fishing conditions. He was happy to do it short notice. When he billed us, we understood why. Other than booking the chopper and coming on the trip himself and perhaps baiting a couple of hooks, he provided zero services. No food, no drinks, nothing. The guides from our camp came along with us at our cost and provided most of the services. The trip started around 8 am and was over by 2 or 3. We expected to pay him a guide fee and cover the cost of the chopper's hourly rate. Total flight time was 7.3 hours, which I verified with the pilot. In the end, when Dave sent the bill, he charged a guide fee of $1,100 and then padded the chopper bill by almost two flight hours to 9.2 hours. Chopper rate was $725/hour. Challenged about this billing, Dave flew into a rage and said that his guide rate was, in fact, $295/person/day ($3,245 for our group, most of whom had literally not even seen him that day or gotten an iota of service from him) plus the flight time, and he would be happy to change the bill to reflect that rate instead of padding the hours, which he said had only done to "save on taxes." I'm not making this up - all of this was in writing, so it's no exaggeration. Bottom line: if you do anything with Dave Fish Alaska, hold your wallet. You're dealing with a dishonest guy who will fleece you if he can.

We sat outside near the fire pit, weather was so beautiful. Definitely worth it, only downfall was how expensive each dish was... but it's super fresh so you get what you pay for! Food review: Fish and chips: (4/5) The fish was very fresh and the batter was nice and crispy. Wish the sizes of fish were a little bigger for the price. The fries were super soggy. Overall, dish was good with the malt vinegar and tartar sauce! Salmon sandwich: (5/5) Simple, yet delicious. The salmon is very fresh and was cooked perfectly.

However, their excellent instructors give clear, simple instructions that are reinforced throughout your 2 and a half hour journey through the canopy. Safety is clearly their priority- they were were confident, professional and kind. It was cloudy the day we went so we could only see the foothills of Denali, but it was still gorgeous. There we tons of songbirds seranading us in the trees. The last two zips near the lake were my favorite. Simply beautiful. Also really enjoyed the rappel. We are already planning our next ziplining adventure with their sister company in Seward which apparently includes 3 rappels.

Very well thought through and safety first. They know what they are doing. This particular zip line is you always stay with your group. Two staff and 8 customers. We go one by one, one zip line at a time. I was fortunate that group was very friendly and we got to know them while waiting for others to zip. They have nine zips and well, they are okay. Done here once and I don't think I would repeat again type level. Yes it was beautiful and all but excitement level was just an average for me. It's still fun way to spend a few hours outdoors safely. You may want to use a mosquito repellent prior to your arrival. While mosquitoes may not come up high, we eventually have to come down, and they are a lot of them here.

You'll learn so much from the many different mountain ranges, to the glacial flour that makes the lakes a milky color, to flying over animal tracks with the hopes to find its owner. He has deep knowledge of the Alaskan things, and all the different ways to hike a mountain and how to get there. He's knowledgeable on all the lakes and rivers, where to fish, where to stay, and how he can safely get you there. He's a phenomenal pilot who's very aware of his surroundings and his airplane is absolutely well managed and cared for. I can't wait to come back and fly with David again!

We booked a tour for Tuesday but the weather was bad. He made multiple attempts to contact us the day before to reschedule but we were in the middle of the national park with no reception. He called us again early on Tuesday morning and informed us that we might have to cancel the flight. He would transfer back the deposit immediately (Zero hassle). He also offered to reschedule on Wednesday. Lucky we could rearrange other plan to fly with him on Wednesday. Oh man, this was the NICEST experience in Alaska so far (we did zip line, boat tour, bus tour). It's worth every penny and every minute. This is the best way to see Alaska.

The room was great-the house was beautiful and well maintained. The oversized windows in the living area provided an exceptional and panoramic view.

We'd give it 10 stars if we could.

Stronger than it may seems. Park itself is very small but a great place to spot Mt Denali on a good day. Mountain is not always visible but chances of seeing the mountain is an early morning. Sun might rise around 4 or so in the summer but that's the best time to come to the park if mountain may show their face. We were in town for three days. On the last day, the weather finally cleared up and there! Oh it was so beautiful, I stood there admiring the mountain for a long time. My in keeper said only 10% of visitors get to see the mountain, and I felt very lucky to be that 10%. Other than that, this is a very small park.

Will be making my reservations soon !!

When I got there they didn't even have me listed on the boat. The captain took us to a 100 yard stretch that 3 other boats had already been working. We all reeled in one king. The gear was crap. I could barely get the lure to cast because of the cheap pole, heavy old line, and light spinner. Had to buy fish on the way home. It seems we didn't even try. This was a hell of an expensive boat ride. If you are a fisherman this is not the trip for you. Major disappointment.
