My family had an epic time on the 6 hr tour last Tuesday. The staff/deckhands were incredibly accommodating, kind and attentive, always checking in on the guests. The lunch was good. Amazingly, we were able to see a mother and baby humpback after less than half an hour on the water and they even provide you with complimentary Nikon binoculars…. hallelujah since I’m blind as a bat! The cabin does get seriously cold so I would suggest wearing a ton of layers but other than that, it was a blast. I bartend at Humpy’s Alehouse in Anchorage and I’ve been telling all the tourists that your tours are a must see. I can’t believe that I’ve lived here 15 years and have never been. I can’t wait to go again. Also side note.. I only had one drink on board, a Bloody Mary and it was the best Bloody Mary of my life. Mahalo!

The ship was very well maintained, clean, great crew! It was the largest ship going out which was really great because we hit some rough seas. Take motion sickness something, a good amount of people were sick. I found it very helpful and no one in our party got sick.

Seeing the wild animals (whales, eagles, porpoises, sea lions, mountain goats, puffins) in their natural habitat was amazing. Tour guides were extremely pleasant and very knowledgeable on area and wildlife. Glad they used assigned seats for inside seating. Tip for travelers: dress warmly if planning to spend much time outside seating area.

It is the most beautiful trip to see the glaciers and the fjords fauna in the Anchorage area. If you drive from Anchorage, you will have an additional opportunity to see an out of this world scenery, that will remind you of the European Alps and Switzerland! It is just amazing. Look around and you will see a moose or two (as we did). Everything it is just exquisite. This is a cruise for lifetime memories. The crew was also impressive through their knowledge of the AK flora and fauna, history of the places we were visiting, or just to be helpful in any way they could. And for the glacier, finally we had enough time to take any number of pictures we wanted, from the closest distance (allowed by law), and from all the angles my imagination told me to take. Again, just a wonderful experience.

Amazing. Far, far exceeded our expectations! We took the 4 Hour Spring Wildlife Cruise. Kenaji Fjords. Exceptional, friendly, knowledgeable crew. We really enjoyed the Captain's narration. Alaskan Mountain Goats, Humpback Whales, Orca, Glaciers, Eagles, history - this tour has it all. Highly recommend!!!

The 6 hour tour is the least amount of time you's want to go on. You need that much time to see the glaciers. We saw orca, sea lions, otter, and sea birds as well as several glaciers.

The BEST captain and crew! This was our first time ever taking a boat cruise with our adult children. It was storming when we headed out on our big 6-hour adventure at sea, and we actually got into 7-foot waves, which was absolutely my worst nightmare. Captain Gary was calm, and announced he valued our safety, (as we still had to continue out to the Gulf of Alaska where there were 10-foot waves!) so he turned the boat around to head back through Resurrection Bay. I was so very thankful, as everyone else on board was, too! The staff was SO AMAZING and handed out ginger chews, crackers, Sprite, anything to keep customers happy. And they even had refunded some of our money since our tour wasn't going to be the full length. And the cherry on top? We got to stop and observe an orca and her little baby just cruising through the water and having a blast! Absolutely the highlight of my 54 years! Thank you, Captain Gary, and crew!

My trip was at the end of September and I was lucky to have a sunny day. I spent a lot of time on deck and it was cold. Amazing experience, nice crew. Good value for money.

My husband and I are here with our 2 sons, celebrating their college graduation. The trip has been amazing. This cruise was spectacular. The weather was gorgeous, the scenery breathtaking. We actually saw a beluga whale!!! The captain was very informative, and the crew did a wonderful job. I would recommend this trip to anyone. Thanks so much for the memories.
