ANCHORAGE, Alaska - Rezul -- Welcome Anchorage Tours is pleased to announce the addition of Amie Haakenson as Alaska Tour Specialist, bringing more than three decades of experience in Alaska's travel, tourism, and event industries to the locally owned tour company.

A longtime Alaskan who has called the state home since 1983, Haakenson's career in travel began in 1990 and spans work with some of Alaska's most respected organizations, including Kenai Coastal Tours, Eagle Custom Tours, Alaska Booking & Reservation Center, and MarkAir.
