About Your Tour Guide

Hi, Kel Thompson here, founder of Whittier Tours and GreatDayAK. I moved to Anchorage four years ago and quickly fell in love with guiding after working for a leading tour company. Along the way, I realized there was a real need for premium private tours and personalized transfers  for cruise passengers and independent travelers. Today, I combine local knowledge, professional guiding experience, and a premium Mercedes Sprinter to offer small-group adventures and smooth, stress-free travel along one of Alaska’s most beautiful routes. 

You can book with confidence directly through this website, it syncs with my booking software and will block your time for your tour / transfer. You can always email me directly GreatDayAK@Gmail.com or call/text at
