Adventure Kart Expedition

It was fun
June 16, 2023
The guides were helpful. Scenery beautiful. The weather was great and trail was as advertised, some mud dirt and dust. Carts themselves reminded me of autopilot at Disneyland, one speed and a brake. Less control than hoped.

Adventure Kart Expedition
June 12, 2023
Our shore excursion was fantastic, the tour guide was local which was an added benefit. He knew all about the areas around Ketchikan including the various species of wild plants and animals. He took us to some areas with incredible views. I thought the excursion was well worth the money we paid. The equipment was well maintained, no mechanical issues. We over dressed thinking we would be cold and wet, however the excursion included rain gear and helmets. We did not need our winter gear we brought, lol. The friendly wolf/ dog was the highlight at the end. Great experience I would recommend this trip to anyone looking for hands on off-road adventure. Thanks, Tony DiCharia

My husband and I went on the Adventure Kart Expedition during our Alaskan cruise. We were picked up at a centralized location and taken to the excursion and after a tutorial, were able to drive the vehicles. What made this excursion different from other excursions similar to this was the history provided from an Alaskan native that was provided during the stops. I learned a lot about Alaska including the school system, that was not provided from other tours. Being an educator, I truly valued this experience. The karts were great too! I was entertained and informed!

Only 8 total in our group. We had a short ride to the Adventure Kart location. Guides were organized and thorough. We had a fun time and would recommend this to families with teens. Our group was mix of adults and teens.

Fun!

My husband and I weren’t quite sure what to expect, but it certainly was fun! I drove up and he drove down. We stopped along the way and were given a tutorial by - I believe her name was Aubrey- that was great! Since she had grown up there we heard about things she did in seventh grade- being dropped on the end of an island with just a few items and had to survive for three days. How one of the first things they learn is how many different kinds of salmon there are and their names. That was wonderful. Both young women that took us up were great! Loved the gear because it rained and splashing through water without a windshield was like being a toddler in a gigantic puddle again. It was loads of fun! I’m not a salmon eater- so this was a perfect excursion for us!

Karts are fun to drive and scenery is beautiful. You will get muddy and dirty but rubber suits keep your clothes clean but your shoes will get dirty so dress appropriately.

Cart FUN
August 13, 2018
Four of us booked the Kart adventure. We had a wonderful time. Meeting place as easy to find. The drive to and from the Kart site was easy and in A/C. It had not rain in a few days so the ride was dusty. With rain the ride would be muddy. I recommend their rain gear RAIN or Shine. Enjoy

It was ok
July 30, 2018
It was ok for us, we are avid atv riders so it didn't wow us. They were very nice, provided rain gear, which we used as dust gear. The best part was the stop we made at top of hill, the view was beautiful. I wouldn't do it again but, I wouldn't tell anyone not to do it.

What a thrill! Totally enjoyed the Adventure Karts. My wife and I both looked forward to this excursion and we were not disappointed. We got a thorough briefing on safety, driving protocols, and what to see on the drive itself. While we did not see much wildlife, we loved the backwoods nature of the trip. Staff were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. We only wished the drive was ten-times longer because of the fun we had on the trip.

Cold, Wet, but FUN!
July 17, 2017
This was so much fun, but I wish I had dressed a lot warmer! We went in middle of June and it was SO COLD and WET. They provide rain gear to wear over your clothes (I highly encourage you to wear!) but it doesn't keep you warm. You will want gloves and a a scarf or face mask to wear. You get a full size helmet, but the wind still gets under the shield a little. The ride was so much fun! With all the twists, turns, bumps, and rugged trails, you will get a true off-roading experience! We saw several amazing views and walked a short walk up to a waterfall.

It was fun and great view from up on the trail over the water and to other islands. Guides could be a little more informative about the area without being prompted with questions.

Get Dirty
September 28, 2016
Its a rush. More fun in the rain. Dress warm though under the rain suit. Bring gloves. Sturdy shoes or boots recommended. Would be hard on bad back very bumpy. Excellent transportation to camp and back. Use the outhouse last thing before you go for you women or men out there.

Great fun, it was a little dusty due to lack of rain but we had bandana's which were great. It would have been good to go a little faster, but we had a very old man in front of us who would not go at the back of the pack so we ended up going extremely slow - that was the only downside.

A Highlight of our Trip
September 14, 2013
This event was one that we could go on as a family from grandchildren to grandparents. The guidelines were covered well, but lots of fun was encouraged. Our guides were helpful, efficient, and knowledgeable. It seemed as though they genuinely loved their job as well as working with people. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to experience Alaska in a thrilling way!

They did a great job of suiting us up. Poor weather but that is just bad luck. We had a problem with our equipment but one of their staff gave us their ATV and we were fine.
