Custom Group, Family And Corporate Alaska Tours And Group Discounts
If you can imagine it, Backcountry Safaris can make it happen. We offer personalized custom trips that cater to the special interests, dates, and desires of your group or family, as well as discounts for groups joining a scheduled tour.
We also own Denali Bus and offer group or corporate bus charters for your transportation needs.
Forming a group can be a rewarding experience. Not only will you introduce your friends and associates to a great Alaskan vacation idea, but trip members will also save money.
For most Backcounty Safaris scheduled sea kayaking and rafting trips, we offer a 10% discount for groups with 4 to 7 participants, 15% for 8 or 9 participants, and 20% for groups of 10 or more. The group organizer is responsible for collecting all deposits and submitting them as a single payment, i.e. one check. The group organizer distributes all trip information to the members of the group, collects the final payment and submits it as a single payment. By acting as the group coordinator who keeps track of payments, trip applications, release forms, communications and questions, you save our office time and money. Giving group discounts is our way of passing our savings on to you.
Group tours must be booked through our office to qualify for a group discount. Not all tours are eligible for discounts; please ask.
