The trip was a little bit of a letdown, if I had known I would have booked a Fjord trip instead. The train was nice, a comfy ride with Lori and Johanna who were very lovely and had plenty of things to share on the trip. Neena was cool, the wildlife had to be hot and tired, no moose sighted, but did see a passed out black bear and two brown bears. The icebergs you see as you float by on the raft. Colette was amazing and had to work hard keeping us from hitting anything, but besides a relaxing trip down a body of water for 2 hours, nothing special. We did not go on the glacier or see any wildlife along the raft trip. The trip was lovely and the people were amazing.

We picked up the tour at the rail station in and did the float to the Seward Glacier and down the river. We all loved it, though my granddaughter wished he had sent us down some of the rougher parts of the river...I'm so glad they didn't. John was a great team leader and our boat captain. They gave us a lot of background about the area, animals and science behind it. A lot of strong guys needed to do this!

Couldn’t have asked for a better experience! They took care of every detail and they couldn’t have been nicer while doing it. The splendor of Alaska in its raw, gorgeous beauty. Thank you, Nina & Ryan, and teammates. Perfection to the minute detail.
