Having lived in Anchorage, Alaska, for some 45 years and being a small-business owner for decades, I have traveled worldwide extensively as well as throughout the state of Alaska. Was born and raised and lived for many years in both Norway and Sweden before moving to Alaska. Worked in the airline and travel industry for years and display a great joy and passion sharing information related to travel within the state, and possess patience and enthusiasm along with a good dose of positivity! I am easy to get along with, flexible, and will go out of my way to provide for an exceptional and personal learning experience for every tour customer, whom I treat as a personal guest. All of my tours can be customized upon request and always open to new adventures. I am a small business owner specializing in Alaska travel and outdoor activities, including guiding groups of individuals in wilderness settings, and have written or co-authored a half dozen books on specifics regarding the subject. I am also trained in CPR and First Aid. Was employed as a teacher at the University of Alaska for 14 years as well. None

The Portage Glacier tour was great. One member of our party of two is very mobility challenged, and Gunnar was conscientious and considerate in helping with his wheelchair getting in and out of the...

    We spent a full day touring with Gunnar in Anchorage, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our Alaska trip. Normally, after a cruise, I am tired and just want to get to the airport. I wasn't expecting to enjoy a tour on a travel day, but Gunnar made the entire experience fun, interesting, and completely stress-free. Gunnar picked us up directly at our cruise...

    Gunnar gave us a wonderful tour of the Anchorage and Turnagain Arm area when we were in Anchorage for a day. He provided a custom tour itinerary in advance based on our request and then made adjustments during the day as we talked and he learned more about our interests. We greatly enjoyed our conversation and learning about the local nature, geography and history...
