Awesome experience

My friend and I had a fabulous time on this 7.5 tour. The crowded size was about right for this size of the boat. The crew was awesome and worked so hard especially to about 40 people with upset stomach due to a bit rough ride. I would recommend this business to anyone who are interested, Many thanks to them!

Great experience! We saw...

Great experience! We saw fin whales, otters, puffins, sea lions & seals. Captain took us right up to a beautiful glacier. Ship was clean and crew were great.

Good Experience

You are assigned a table but told that is your home base, you are able to go anywhere in the public areas of the boat. This gave good opportunity to see things if you were willing to get up and move. The ship was not too crowded and it was easy to see what the captain was looking at. The captain was excellent at communicating what he was doing and why. He would also maneuver the ship to give people sitting at tables a chance to view the current objecy of interest. The crew was excellent at keeping the guests organized while giving guidance on what to look at. This cruise set a high bar for other cruises to meet.

Must do in Seward!

This was an incredible tour and 6-hours was the perfect amount of time! We saw so much wildlife including sea lions, sea otters, seals, humpback whales, orcas, black bears, and puffins! Our captain and crew were super knowledgeable about the area and wildlife. Glacier views and Kenai Fjord National Park views were incredible.
