You have two choices for seeing Kenai Fjords National Park, go to Exit Glacier and hike to see it or take a cruise and see more! It is worth every cent as you get to see many many glaciers, sealions, puffins, other birds, sea otters, and whales! We were able to witness a glacier calving (amazing) and Humpback Whales bubble net fishing! They serve you a light continental like breakfast and a lunch consisting of a wrap sandwich and chips. I highly suggest bringing your own food as the serving sizes are a bit small. I cannot remember the name of our captain, but he was great and the other staff were so conscientious to the guests helping them with bird identification, pointing out where the animals were when you were outside and trying your best to stay upright (how they stay so balanced is beyond me!) They hand out bags if you feel you might throw up and in my case they kept me supplied in ginger ale to keep me going (THANK YOU) Seeing whales is amazing but this cruise even lets you hear them as they lower a microphone into the water. There are tables inside of the boat to sit at; first come first served and a little snack bar where you can get souvenirs and other things to eat and drink. Loved it!

Just when we thought our 15 day road trip of Alaska couldn’t get any better we were proved wrong. The Northwestern Fjord Tour was the highlight by far. We saw orca, fin whale, sea lions, porpoise, puffins, seals, otters, bald eagles and many other bird varieties. The glacier views surpassed any we had seen on our trip. The food provided was lovely. Captain Chris did an excellent commentary and good spotting of wildlife. Best day ever.
