We took a family vacation to Alaska and decided to go kayaking for the first time as a family. It was a gorgeous area and a great time! We saw seals and eagles around, and had a very beautiful view of the glacier! Our guide Timmy was wonderful as well. He was a chest of knowledge about the wildlife and ecosystem, and also very fun and funny. Thank you Timmy! I would highly recommend this adventure for anyone stopping in Juneau.

We booked the sea kayak adventure on our shore excursion while sailing on the NCL Jewel. Our guide was Andre and we had an amazing excursion. The weather was fabulous and we had perfect still waters as we kayaked out into the Bay. We had great views of the glacier and encountered several bald eagles and seals. Awesome day!

Hi Kenneth from Kentucky here. Went on sea kayaking tour on July 19th 2018 at 1:30 pm with Timmy from Ohio. GREATEST TOUR GUIDE EVER. Timmy was very informative about the entire area and even did Alaska trivia to make it even more fun. The man seriously deserves a promotion because he was by far the best guide I’ve ever had and I’ve been on a lot of excursions. Timmy pulled out amazing fact after amazing fact and even took a superb photo of me and my friend while on the tour. Everyone should request Timmy as their guide for future tours and tip him a ton!!!
