26 Glacier Cruise and Coach from Anchorage

Overview

We make it easy to see it all in one day! Relax on the coach as the driver guide narrates while you enjoy the beauty of Turnagain Arm. On the cruise get ready to view one of the largest concentration of glaciers in Alaska. Weather, ice conditions and wildlife activity changes daily and our captains may adjust the route to provide the best cruise experience while keeping your safety and comfort a top priority. We take pride in ensuring that your time with us is an enjoyable memory that becomes a favorite highlight of your Alaska vacation.

We operate first-class catamarans. Due to their dual hull design, these powerful high-speed catamarans are extremely stable and able to smoothly navigate through the narrow fjords and passages that lead us to the face of massive glaciers. By operating safely and efficiently, Phillips provides a comfortable cruise and our No Seasickness Guarantee assures nervous cruisers the confidence that they will enjoy our cruise without any unpleasant effects.

I will divide the experience in two parts. Bus trip from Anchorage to Whittier. It’s hard to make it more lousier and boring then they did. No background, picture opportunities or stop on the way. Once we reached the place for cruise no guidance was provided to where to go get tickets and all. 2nd is actual cruise ride. Really cramped up ride. We were family of 3 end up sharing tight 6 person table with another family of 3. Only reason I am giving it rating of 3 is because in the end glacier view was breathtaking

The whole experience was great! The trip from Anchorage was amazing and seeing the glaciers was out of this world. My only suggestion is to let people know ahead of time where to redeem the tickets because many of us were lost at the harbor when they asked for the tickets
