Welcome! My name is Greg and I've been a resident of Anchorage since 1981. I came here by motor home on vacation and I feel like I'm still on vacation. I worked in the fishing industry during the 80's and that sealed my love for Alaska. I next sold real estate through the 90's until 2004 and made many local friends. I have been leading tours between Seward and Fairbanks Alaska since 2008 and have driven that highway 100's of times. The thing so great about it is that it looks different every tour I drive. I love talking about Alaska and spreading the news about it. I would love to tell you and show you what I know about this beautiful state. I am very open to all destinations and tour ideas you may have. Class B Commercial Drivers Liscense. None

Overview of your Anchorage tour

Anchorage to Seward is one of the most beautiful drives in Alaska. The Chugach Mountains on the left and the Kenai Mountains on the right with the Turnagain Arm separating them. I've driven this highway 100's of times, but for me, I find that it looks different every time. I'll be sure to let you know how different it is for me the day of our tour. Also throughout the tour I'll be pointing out evidence of the affects from the 9. 2 earthquake that hit Alaska on Good Friday March 27th, 1964. My plan is to make this day your most memorable of your visit. We'll be spending time and making stops in places the large motor coaches won't go. We have plenty of choices for things to do. Check the itinerary below. We can do some or all. If the timing is right we may be able to catch surfers on the tidal bore along the Turnagain Arm, quite a phenomenon. This tour can be customized to do and see things you've thought of or heard of between Anchorage and Seward.

I am a planner and had several requests ahead of our visit and Greg was quick to respond to each one. He was early to pick us up and extended our tour to accommodate a special request. Our family of 5, ages 21-51, thoroughly enjoyed spending the day with Greg and all the “Greg facts” we learned along the way. Having Greg as our driver and tour guide was an excellent way to start our Alaska vacation!

Being driven by Greg was like having a cousin meet us and tell us about his home town and state. Good stories and very accomodating for a special need at the drugstore. Would engage him again if we were to repeat a trip to Alaska.

Excellent private tour. Our guide was incredibly knowledgable and gave us a fantastic day in Anchorage. We learnt about history, culture and much more. We are well traveled and have high standards, and we were very happy with our tour guide - Greg was great! Time and money well invested.

Greg Hamilton did a great job on this tour! We feel like old friends after just 7 hours and learned a ton about Anchorage and Seward and everything in between - an awesome tour; thanks Greg, see you next time.

We thoroughly enjoyed our day tour with Greg! As a family of 6 covering three generations, Greg did a great job including points of interest that appealed to everyone. He knew all of the areas well and entertained us with stories throughout our trip. It was a great way to travel between Anchorage (where we flew into) and Seward (where we met our cruise ship). I highly recommend a tour with Greg for anyone make a similar trip!

Our family of 8 hired Greg to drive us from Anchorage to Seward for a cruise. He had a suggested itinerary packed with interesting and fun things to see and do for our 8 hour adventure. He was full of interesting stories and drove safely. We loved the experience and will try tours by locals again for other vacations.
