5.00This was a great experience as our first time doing a non-ship-sponsored excursion. Communication for where to go and when was excellent in advance and on site. Comfortable transportation to the park and clear info on how/when to return to the same trolley (bus) back. The only thing that I wish I'd done differently is find a longer trip. Two hours sounds like a good amount of time, but it went very quickly. We hiked up to Nugget Falls and to the photo spot, but could have spent much more time on site if we weren't due back on the bus. Not at all an issue with the trip itself, just advice to future travelers, you may want more time than you think! The highlight was a bear crossing about 20 feet in front of us on the path with her two cubs. Honestly, scary at the time, but once we'd backed up and she continued on her way with them and the danger had faded, it is now a highlight of our entire Alaskan trip.
