John Hall's AlaskaReviews of kissalaska.com

Tour guide was disorganized and wasted time , making up excuses. He continuously bragged about himself with tall tales. (Land part) John Halls was the worst tour we have ever been on. Tour guide on ship was not knowledgeable. When asked where we could find internet in towns when docked, he had no idea. At the end of tour, the guide was giving the group procedures without any written instructions. Many older travelers were upset because they couldn’t remember all the info. Thank goodness , I had paper and pen and wrote down the info and shared with others.

My wife and I are relatively seasoned travelers; but Upper Alaska was one of our "Last Frontiers". We saw an ad in our local paper for a preview of Alaska travels. We signed up (thinking it would be a variety of presenters about trips to Alaska); when we attended, it was John Hall, Jr -- 'extolling' the value of choosing their company for this experience. He, obviously, 'whetted our appetite; we, obviously, chose to travel with John Hall's Alaska .. It was one of the best choices relative to group travel that we have ever experienced. Our guide was also our driver .. he excelled at both. The company employees were extremely cordial, happy, helpful and knowledgeable. And, wherever we had group experiences, it was apparent to us that the John Hall customers got 'extra special treatment.' One other point to mention/consider -- we hesitated before we made our choice on the cost -- believe me, with John Hall, the 'cost is the cost'. Other than souvenirs and (some) snacks, there wasn't this is extra, that is extra, - what a pleasure compared some of our other experiences. I'm not an employee; we're not being urged to write this - but, if your experience is at all like ours -- choose John Hall's Alaska.

John Hall's Alaska met all our expectations and so much more. The entire vacation was incredible. Thank you.

this was the best ever trip we have taken .everything was top of the line meals service and great tour director . the bus trip and cruise were excellent not one thing to complain about . was pricey but worth every cent spent . was our 50th anniversery trip couldnt ask for a better time .

My wife and I went on a John Hall tour of Ireland in 2018 and it was great ! The tour was put together so well,John & Danielle Bailey our John Hall Reps.,Sheila our narrator and Danny our bus driver all gave us a tour that we will always remember. The Hotels and Food were second to none !

We were very Happy from the start where John Halls people took us to the airport and made sure we Got on our flight. We were met at the airport in Anchorage Airport and were helped getting off the flight. The staff, Food and places we stayed were excellent. The train Trips and bus trips were excellent and the guides were down to earth and were easy to talk with as well as very informative. When we were ready to leave, provisions were made to get to and on the boat back to Victoria and took bus down to Seattle. Only thing that could of been better is the guide on the boat. He seemed to be busy with other things. We always had plenty of good food even on buses and trains. Would recommend John Hall`s to others. We also met many people from other states on this trip.

John Hall's Alaska "Grand Slam Tour" From the time you get into Anchorage until the time we got back to Seattle, I am saying everything to a "T" was taken care of first class. We got to see a month's worth of activity in 1/2 the time. No worries about luggage, lodging, food, meals, water, snacks, trains, boats, and bus. I would take the same trip over again in a heartbeat. They have the most caring staff. Already saving to take another trip with them anyplace. My highlight was taking a Polar Plunge at Wonder Lake in Denali National Park on a picture-perfect day with a bull moose in the water across from us.

Our tour with John Hall's Alaska was handled with well organized, friendly efficiency. All the daunting parts of traveling disappeared (handled expertly by John Hall's) and what remained was a fantastic and fun adventure with new friends! Our iditarod experiences were well planned to give us the feeling of being part of the iconic Alaska event, up close and personal. We were excited to meet and talk to mushers! Borealis Base Camp was a once-in-a-lifetime experience and the aurora gave us a thrilling, unforgettable night. Have to mention the bus. Comfortable for even the very tall! John Hall's lets you feel like you are part of the family. We would go again!
