Outstanding Tour Experience

5.00Absolutely fantastic experience with Wade and his crew. Everyone went above and beyond our expectations and were extremely personable. This crew is clearly very passionate about what they do and they obviously love their jobs. They were also very knowledgeable on the wildlife. If you can only do one tour on your visit I would recommend this experience above all others.
Captain Emma and her crew...

5.00Captain Emma and her crew were so awesome. The narration wasn’t too much or too little, and we got to see humpback whales, puffins, sea lions, harbor seals, and calving at the Northwestern Glacier, among others! Thanks for the fresh baked cookies too! Highly recommend!
Excellent day!!

5.00Fantastic day! We did the 7hour tour, which I thought might be too long, however the day flew by. The ride was comfortable and we saw orcas from afar (wish we could have been closer), humpback whales, otters, puffins, sea lions, eagles and their babies in their nests, and glaciers! The glaciers and the scenery the entire day was remarkable! Highly recommend. We were lucky in that the daY we had originally reserved was a very stormy day and we were able to change our reservation to the following day with no charge.
Very Cool! Loved Aliak
