We went on the 6 hour National Parks Cruise and loved it! Our captain, Jimmy, and the entire crew were friendly and helpful. There was always a staff person close by to answer questions and assist anyone who needed help. We saw sea otters minutes into our trip and this was just the beginning. During the cruise we saw a huge whale (right next to the boat): puffins, seals, ,mountain goat, sea lions, eagles, porpoise, and lots more. Jimmy steered us as close as possible, gave information about each animal, and turned the boat so everyone could see. We also went close to several glaciers. The lunch was good and we were surprised with a fresh, hot cookie on our way back. Other snacks and beverages (including alcoholic drinks) were available to purchase at very reasonable prices. It gets chilly, so definitely dress in layers and bring a camera—you will want to capture these memories. Enjoy!
