I am so glad this was part of our land tour in Alaska! We saw everything we could want to see while on this tour. We were able to see a pod of Orca's and were able to get pretty close to get some great pictures on them coming up out of the water. We also saw Tufted Puffins, seals and sea lions while on this adventure. The glaciers were also amazing. The staff was great and answered a ton questions that the guests had and kept up comfortable the whole trip. Unfortunately I was feeling a bit of motion sickness while lunch was being served so I wasn't able to eat it, but my husband and the rest of our group said it was really good.

Great day on a big boat touring the glacier. Staff were helpful, knowledgeable, and accommodating. The captain (in training) was very in tune with the guests and wanted to ensure we had a good time. No notes for the crew..very dialed in to customer service and comfort even with less than idea weather. Food provided was a bagel and a very white dish of rice and chicken. This is a very commerical, comfort oriented, trip ideal for families. It’s a large vessel that provides that kind of experience. Easy to sit back and relax and not have to worry about sea state or holding on for dear life. There may be more exciting and “authentic” ways to see a glacier, but this is definitely the most comfortable and problem-free.
