5.00The boat ride was great. The all female crew did a very good job awnsering question and being informative of what was the boat was doing at all times. Just a little caution you will have alot of motion with the boat on part of the tour. Great Job!
So glad we took this boat tour.

5.00What a fantastic experience. Everyone on the boat crew was very responsive to our needs and questions. We saw so much wildlife, including bald eagles, sea otters, birds, seals, and most of all a black bear on the shore near one of the. Glaciers. Also, the lunch they served was quite good. A chicken burrito with chips and salsa. Tasty. And then towards the end of the cruise, they served everyone warm chocolate chip cookies. It was fantastic. They also have drinks, sodas, juices, coffee, if you’d want to buy something. Would definitely recommend this if you are in Seward.
