What To Expect

Kenai Fjords National Park

In Kenai Fjords National Park, over half of the landmass is covered by the enormous Harding Icefield, a thousand-foot block of ice that dates back to the last Ice Age. The Harding spills out in all directions in the form of glaciers. Some stretch northwest into rugged hills of the Kenai Peninsula. Others—five of them, to be exact—reach as far as the sea along the craggy coast of the Gulf of Alaska.

Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge

Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge is comprised of 2,400 islands, headlands, rocks, islets, spires and reefs and is known for its abundance of seabirds.

Hands down worth every single penny and more! This trip was unbelievable. The captain and crew were awesome and they tried to make sure you got to see some of Alaska’s most uninhabited areas as up close as possible. I would do this trip over and over and highly recommend this company for anyone who is traveling through Seward!

We really lucked out all around on our trip! From the weather and calm waters to the wildlife sitings - we couldn't ask for more! I am not sure I needed my motion sickness patch, but better safe than sorry. There was plenty of room on board to space out from others. No need to run to one side of the boat or the other to capture a view; the captain was good about maneuvering so all sides had good viewing opportunities. The captain and crew were great throughout the day! The commentary was helpful and informative without being excessive. The glaciers were all impressive, but did I mention the wildlife!? We saw sea lions, otters, seals, puffins among other birds, and an orca pod! Book the tour!

I loved this boat ride! The guides were super helpful and pointed out landmarks and wildlife, and the boat ride was the perfect length. We got to see a super pod of orca, puffins, otters..and so much more! Definitely recommend this trip if you want to check out Kenai Fjords.
