5.00We were warned ahead of time that there would be rough water and bad weather. We could have canceled for a full refund, I'm so glad we decided to go. We were able to see eagles, otters, two types of seals and everyone's favorite a huge pod of resident Orcas, on our way into the glacier and again on our way out. Emma was our captain, she was amazing. She kept us going, we were able to do the full trip which she decided as we went. The swells were big, we did a lot of rocking and rolling. Several people did get sick. It poured off and on so that made it hard to get good photos.

5.00Very enjoyable, beautiful scenery, knowledgeable Captain. Perhaps a choice other than burritos for lunch would be of benefit.
