Czego oczekiwać

Wycieczki na Alaskę

Podczas tej czarującej wyprawy przez dzikie tereny będziesz podróżować przez fiordy i lasy deszczowe, podziwiając jedne z najbardziej spektakularnych krajobrazów Alaski na południowym wschodzie. Zobaczysz wszystko, od dzikich kwiatów po wysokie góry, a dopełnieniem wrażeń będą widoki z bliska na lodowiec Davidson. Twoja przygoda zaczyna się na pokładzie jednej z naszych łodzi zaprojektowanych na zamówienie, aby zapewnić intymne wrażenia wizualne. Podczas 75-minutowej podróży przez najgłębszy fiord Ameryki Północnej wypatruj wielorybów, fok i kaskadowych wodospadów, podczas gdy przewodnik Przyrodnik opowie Ci więcej o okolicy, przez którą podróżujesz. Po przybyciu na odległą plażę Glacier Point wybierz się na krótką, pełną przygód przejażdżkę przez zalesione moreny lodowcowe do naszej bazy, gdzie przygotujesz kalosze i kamizelkę ratunkową. Po ¼ mili spaceru las otwiera się, ukazując zapierający dech w piersiach widok na lodowiec Davidsona i dziewicze jezioro poniżej. Tutaj wsiądziesz do 31-metrowego kajaka podróżnika na wycieczkę wokół jeziora, aby zobaczyć lodowiec i cieszyć się niesamowitą dziką przyrodą Alaski, podczas gdy Twój przewodnik podzieli się swoją rozległą wiedzą na temat okolicy. Jeśli pozwolą na to warunki, zatrzymasz się w delcie, aby zbliżyć się do lodowca. Jest to opcjonalna wędrówka o długości od 1/2 do 1 mili po piaszczysto-kamienistej plaży. Po powrocie do bazy zjedz lunch na pikniku na plaży przed powrotem na specjalnie zaprojektowaną łódź do oglądania dzikiej przyrody.

Alaska Excursions

On this spellbinding wilderness expedition, you will travel through fjords and rain forests viewing some of the most spectacular Alaskan scenery in Southeast. You’ll see everything from wildflowers to towering mountains and top off the experience with up-close views of the Davidson Glacier. Your adventure begins aboard one of our boats custom-designed to provide an intimate viewing experience. During your 75-minute journey through North America’s deepest fjord, keep a lookout for whales, seals, and cascading waterfalls while your Naturalist guide tells you more about the area you are traveling through. Upon arrival at the remote Glacier Point beach, you will take a short, adventurous drive across the forested glacial moraines to our base camp where you will gear up in rubber boots and a life jacket. After a ¼ mile walk, the forest opens to reveal a breathtaking view of the Davidson Glacier and pristine lake below. Here you will board a 31-foot voyager canoe for a trip around the lake to view the glacier and enjoy the incredible Alaskan wilderness while your guide shares his extensive knowledge of the area. Conditions permitting, you’ll make a stop on the delta to get up close and personal with the glacier. This is an optional 1/2 to 1-mile hike over a sand and pebble beach. After returning to the base camp, enjoy a picnic lunch on the beach before your return trip on the custom designed wildlife-viewing boat .

While our guide and the naturalist were very friendly and engaging, there just wasn't anything special or adventurous about this trip, and calling it a wilderness safari is misguided. Most of the time on this trip is spent in transportation of some kind, such as the first boat and the bus. You do not really get very close at all to the glacier, so it's important to know this right off the bat. The hike is short and nothing special. The canoes have motors, so you only paddle a few strokes until it gets going. It was the least amount of wildlife we saw anywhere in Alaska, and because they crank out tours, there's nothing really that's wilderness, and it's all rather quite well traversed. What I would keep in mind is that there are other ways to see glaciers, so all the time it takes to get to this one, then without really getting very close, and without any real adventure or wildlife, just isn't worth the cost for time or money. The guides mention the rocks on the beaches, which were completely ordinary. I had good rain gear on, but still got wet by the end. I would also not book this tour unless you check that the day before it's forecasted to be good weather and not raining. Because it rains so much in this area, if rain is forecasted, you might be rained on for hours. Also, when it rains, just like anywhere, wildlife retreats until there is a break, so you'll likely not see any or much. The staff were nicely intentioned, but I just didn't feel like there were enough reviews that described the experience.

This was a fantastic excursion. Our guides, Darien and Josh were super awesome. Very friendly and energetic and provided lots of info about Alaska, the area and it's history. You start with a 1 hr boat ride from Skagway to the beach near the glacier. During the ride, you will see many waterfalls, sea life, bald eagles, and possibly other glaciers (weather permitting). Once at the beach, you board a bus which takes you to camp to get life jackets, raincoats (if needed) and boots. Then it's a short hike to the first canoe, which gives some great first views of the glacier and surroundings. One more transition to a second canoe and then you land on the delta in front of Davidson Glacier. You get pretty close to the glacier, but not actually touching it. It's hard to get a much closer experience though anywhere. It's not a very strenuous journey as there were several young children who were able to do it. Aside from the amazing nature and scenery, all the guides really make the excursion so enjoyable. We learned a lot of cool facts during the boat ride and as well as the bus and canoe ride. After you finish the glacier hike, you will have lunch (Sandwich, chips & a sweet snack) before you take the boat ride back to port. Overall, plan to be out about 5-6 hrs. On the boat ride back, we made stops to get a up close look at the waterfalls and sea lions (not sure if this is standard). Overall just an amazing experience. If you book directly with the company, you may save some money vs booking through the cruiseline excursions. I think it's definitely worth the money and time as there isn't a lot to do in Skagway. Even with the excursion, we still had time to walk around town, shop, get some fry bread (must do) and a drink at the Skagway brewery.

Underwhelming. This was the 1 experience my wife and I regretted doing during our 1-week AK cruise. Did not get close enough to the glacier. Had other better views of glaciers elsewhere during the week. Canoe portion was a bit lame. Provided lunch was fuel but not good. Not worth the approximate $325 per person cost. On positive side, the young guides were motivated and did a nice job. Boat ride with naturalist was also ok. We are probably outliers with higher expectations.

Hi there, thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience on the Glacier Point Wilderness Safari didn't meet your expectations. The rapid recession of Alaska's glaciers has impacted our ability to safely reach the face of the Davidson Glacier during the tour. Depending on daily conditions, we may be able to get closer or might be restricted by the river, which are factors beyond our control. Additionally, we are sorry that you were displeased by the lunch provided. Due to the remote location, our options are limited, but we strive to offer a satisfying picnic experience. We’re pleased to hear you enjoyed your time with our guides. We value your feedback and would be happy to discuss your experience further. Please feel free to contact our office directly.
