Captain Sherry was awesome. We saw tons of wildlife and she and her crew were very knowledgeable. Lunch was quick and easy and just the right amount. The glacier ice cocktails are super cool.

Highly recommend! We took the northwestern glacier tour and aside from the views the wildlife was amazing. Fin whales and humpbacks, eagles, incredible waterfalls, otters….even though it was overcast it didn’t matt and. You know you are in Alaska!

Judi C

Very good Capt. Chris was knowledgeable and very good narrator!! It was like being on a wildlife tour with Attenborough! Would recommend even if the weather is not ideal.

audreysue2

This tour ended up being our most favorite thing we did on our trip to Alaska. We saw so much. Seeing a glacier calve into the water was amazing and then followed it up with catching the humpback whales hunting. We even got to see a baby Orca. Just amazing. Our captain was incredibly knowledgeable and even funny. Would definitely do this again and again

Kludington

The captain, Mark Winstead made the trip, especially good. He knew where to find all the exciting things to see, and he let us spend substantial time at the Northwestern fjord glacier. He has broad knowledge of sea life, geology, and everything else that was relevant to the trip. The crew was excellent. It was a wonderful day.

Lerckermaeulchen

Amazing experience, we did the large tour which was worth every penny! Humpback group hunting was the highlight! The captain was always giving excellent comments.

S R

Fantastic tour with Captain Chris & crew. Day started out dreary but the wildlife didn’t care! Saw a pod of Orcas with one breaching then later a large pod of humpbacks feeding and saw one breach. Seeing the glaciers up close was amazing. They also got super close to a waterfall! Truly an amazing day

We spent 8 hours on the Northwestern Fjord Tour and it was amazing. I was concerned about 8 hours on a boat and the time went very fast. The breakfast snack, lunch and afternoon snacks were all delicious and the sights and animals were wonderful. We saw humpback whales, killer whales, seals, otters, puffins and up close and personal with glaciers calving. It was amazing! A highlight was watching the humpback whales bubble netting. What a great 8 hours, Remember to dress warm, I was glad I had gloves, hat and a jacket to protect against the wind.

tristanbU9725BT

The tour was above and beyond what I expected. We were able to see whales, otters, several species of birds, Orca, salmon, seals, and so much more. The glacier was magnificent!

Bexxzzz

Very organized and the staff was great from Capt Mark to the parking shuttle driver. Got lucky with weather and saw orcas, porpoises and pods of humpback whales bubble net fishing. The longer tour was definitely worth it.
