Just did the Whittier to Anchorage tour - amazing experience!

I just came back from the Wildlife Extravaganza tour and wow, it was everything I hoped for! Our driver was super knowledgeable about the area and the stories he shared really added to the experience. The scenery along the Seward Highway was stunning and the stop at the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center was definitely a highlight. We saw bears and moose up close! I’m thinking of gifting this to my parents next time they visit. Highly recommend it!

Considering gifting the Wildlife Extravaganza for my brother - thoughts?

My brother’s going on a cruise to Alaska in a couple of weeks, and I’m thinking about getting him this tour when he gets off the ship in Whittier. Is it worth it? What’s the wildlife like? I know he’d love the chance to see bears and moose but just want to make sure it’s not too rushed.
