This was a perfect addition to our trip in Alaska. The guides were excellent and truly love to share their knowledge of the plants and flowers. Being able to taste some of our foraged finds was delicious and so much fun. We appreciate all the extra details that made the experience so unique, including the campfire blueberry thumbprint cookies.
