Great time was had by all except my eldest and her grandpa who had a kayak that was taking on water through a hole. They still had a nice time, but the paddling was significantly harder and wetter.

We had a wonderful excursion with the Glacier View Sea Kayaking tour. The area was beautiful with many bald eagles. Our guide was Adelheide who was very knowledgeable about the area, Medenhall glacier and wildlife around. She gave us all clear instructions and interacted with everyone in our group. I would definitely recommend.

Sophia was the best guide I have ever had on a tour, she knew a lot of the facts about the glacier and the history surrounding it. If you ever get a chance to take a kayak tour, I would very highly recommend Sophia. She made our trip and whole experience better. She was able to take our pictures and then later on send them to us.
