My impression was that this was to be a true glacier view experience. You can barely see the glacier from the shore, and even less once you are at water level in the kayak. This is more of a sea animal kayak encounter, with a hint of glacier way off in the distance, like looking at a snow capped mountain from sea level. Also, the equipment needs to be better cared for. The life jackets were wet, and smelled badly, and the provided boots, even worse. I have participated in other excursions, where the equipment was in way better shape. This company needs to better describe the excursion, and take better care of the equipment.

Sorry, you were disappointed. My house is by the kayak launch so I am not sure what you mean by you could barely see the glacier? You are 8 miles from the face of the glacier. The glacier rises up to over 5500 feet in elevation. It is very visible unless it is covered by clouds or fog. Thanks for informing me about the equipment. This is the first I have heard that. I will make sure and address the issue with the team.

Weather was perfect, water was calm, and our guide Ben was so knowledgeable! We loved listening to him and learning from him. We saw harbor seals, stellar sea lions, huge jellyfish, and bald eagles. The glacier is something you see from afar (you’re not going to get close to it!) but it was a great trip. We loved it.

Yes, you are about 8 miles from the glacier on this tour. Glad you enjoyed the tour! Thanks for sharing. I will let Ben know.

We enjoyed this kayaking excursion with our guide, Tammy. We had a beautiful, warm afternoon and the water was like glass. I give Tammy credit for keeping a group of 8 boats somewhat together and on pace. We certainly could have moved faster and covered more scenery if we were on our own, but then we would have missed things that only a seasoned local guide will point out. Its a trade-off that we were willing to make in order to have an active, yet relaxed afternoon with great views of glaciers and wildlife. Certainly worth the price. Thanks Tammy.
