7.5 Hours Flew By

We had a fantastic experience with Major Marine Tours. We were lucky to have perfect weather with blue skies and calm water, and no one in our group got seasick. We visited two glaciers, and the captain stayed long enough for everyone to witness several impressive calving events. The captain also did a great job spotting wildlife and positioning the boat so passengers could get a good view. During the tour, we saw whales, sea otters, mountain sheep, and even a bear. The staff were friendly, helpful, and kept the experience enjoyable from start to finish. Although the tour was about 7.5 hours long, the time flew by because there was always something interesting to see. The boat was also in excellent condition, comfortable, and well maintained, which made the experience even more enjoyable.

Unforgettable Kenai Fjords Experience

An incredible day exploring Kenai Fjords. The scenery was spectacular, with stunning glaciers up close, rugged coastline, and plenty of wildlife along the way. The cruise was well organised, comfortable, and the crew were friendly and informative. A fantastic experience and definitely a highlight of our Alaska trip!

Better than a cruise!

Absolutely fantastic day cruise! Beautiful scenery and the opportunity to see wildlife. Crew was wonderful and kept things interesting and fun. Lunch was nice and filled us up. Getting to hold glacier ice was a once in a lifetime chance.

Great time, think before you sail

Well worth every penny! We went on September 11, 2026. My 79 year old mother had a blast! The crew was absolutely amazing. Many guests were sea sick and the crew cared for everyone. Thankfully my people did not get sick and thoroughly enjoyed the trip. We got to see Orca whales, seals, otters, and bald eagles. Highly recommend. One tip, take anti nausea medicine the night before if you even THINK you might get sick. Can’t hurt only help you to enjoy the day.
