We would highly recommend using Enchanting Travels for an Alaskan vacation. They curated the experiences that we most wanted including lots of opportunities to see the beauty of the landscape, do wildlife tours for animal sighting, and gain understanding of the Native culture. We trusted the specific tours that they arranged in terms of safety (plane flights, etc). They were very supportive throughout our trip; daily check ins to ensure that the reservations for tours and hotels would all go smoothly. We were very impressed by the individual attention and support of our coordinator, Heike.

Enchanting Travels helped us plan, down to every detail, exactly what we wanted in our trip. In the early stages there was constant contact to fine-tune our trip to what our interests were. During the trip we had the confidence that our Trip Coordinator had our back.

Enchanting Travels coordinated a customized bucket-list trip to Alaska for us that exceeded our expectations. There were suggestions made in the itinerary that we would have never thought of several being highlights of the trip. Prior to the trip, all of the booking and coordination was taken care of and in Alaska, this is helpful since many places do not open booking until a certain time, and do not offer the ease of online reservations. We would not have experienced as much as we did if we tried to coordinate this trip on our own. During the trip, our coordinator Miriam was excellent with communication and made for a stress-free trip. We only had one minor hiccup with one of the hotel reservations but it was corrected promptly and of little inconvenience. She was always available and quick to reply. I highly recommend this service. If you book with Enchanting Travels, you will be glad that you did.

Normally I plan our family vacations, but I wanted help planning our trip to Alaska. It felt different than other trips that we had taken because of the travel time and expense. Our kids are young enough that they may return (and I hope they do!) but for my husband and me, it was a once in a lifetime trip. Enchanting Travels helped narrow down which experiences and activity levels were the best fit and made all the arrangements. It was wonderful!
