From start to finish, this was an excellent tour! The bus drivers, who moved us to and between the whale watching and glacier, were informative. The boat we rode on, whilst watching whales, was a top tier tour boat that had room inside for keeping warm and dry, and open decks in the front, rear and on top for outside viewing. Our boat captain expertly spotted and maneuvered us into position to get great views of over a dozen whales. The Mendenhall Glacier was just sad, and that is not the fault of the tour company. It has receded so much, that the best views of the glacier are from the parking lot and first photo viewpoint. After an easy one mike hike, we snapped some great photos with Nugget Falls,
