This was a very professionally run, comfortable and enjoyable cruise. Ben, the captain, did an excellent job of giving commentary during the trip, pointing out and slowing down for wildlife along the way as well as talking about the geography and glaciers. We saw lots of wildlife throughout the day - sea otters, bald eagles, sea lions, seals, puffins, orcas and porpoises. The glacier itself was very impressive, and we stopped about a 1/4 mile from it, where Ben turned off the engines so we could listen to the glacier, which was much noisier than I expected. The catamaran was modern and clean with big windows, and the ride was very smooth. Not a hint of seasickness, which I'm prone to. Overall a great day!

We spent the whole day on the boat looking for glaciers and wildlife and had a great time. The ship was nice, staff very friendly, the food good. The captain and the rest of the staff spent a great deal of time looking out for wildlife to point out to us so we ended up seeing otters, orcas, puffins, seals, black bears...amazing. We also learned a lot about the geography and the history of Valdez and surroundings. Totally worth taking the trip!
