Five of us from our Cruise Critic roll call (for Holland America Amsterdam) went out whale watching a few weeks ago with Captain Jordan and the trip did not disappoint!
The boat is immaculate and incredibly comfortable both in the cabin and out on the decks and we loved being able to walk completely around outside to see everything. Jordan was a wealth of knowledge so it was fun to talk about all things Hoonah, the wildlife, Alaska, his family's fishing history in the area, etc.
Instructions on where to meet Maraiya were perfect and she was waiting for us when we disembarked to drive us up to the harbor. Oh, and don't let me forget to mention the DELISH blueberry muffins (berries picked by Jordan the day before, muffins baked by Maraiya)!
All in all, a great way to get out on the water, see some wildlife, and not be dealing with 100+ people on one of the ship's tours!
Thanks, guys, for a great morning!
