Fish a frozen Anchorage-area lake, watch for wildlife, and take in mountain views on a four-hour adventure with private transportation.

About this tour

Spend four hours on a small frozen lake with this Anchorage ice fishing adventure, where the winter landscape is part of the catch. On clear days, you may see as many as four mountain ranges across Southcentral Alaska, while moose and bald eagles can appear near the water.

Help drill through ice that can range from 6 inches to 3 feet thick, then fish with provided rods, reels, tackle, and bait. Depending on conditions, you may use jigs or spoons, or fish with a hook, bait, and bobber. Look through an ice hole or follow fish on sonar as they move beneath the surface. Your guide handles the messy work and heavy lifting, leaving you free to enjoy the quiet lake and the excitement of a bite.

Private transportation and hotel pickup and drop-off are included. Bring warm clothing and waterproof footwear, and pack any meals or snacks you’d like. Book your Anchorage ice fishing adventure for a memorable day outdoors in Alaska.

How this score is calculated

This tour scores 5.00 on Viator and 5.00 on GetYourGuide. Ratings on these sites cluster near the top of the 5-star scale, so we compare each one with all other ratings on the same site before combining them.

How the score works and rating distribution in Anchorage
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 8.3. Top 14% in Anchorage means it ranks in the top 14% of tours in Anchorage by this score.
