Top Seward Day Cruises

We had the most magnificent day!!!! The weather was absolutely perfect and our Captain provided us with so much education about the area and especially the history of the glaciers. We saw two whales, puffins and sea lions however the most glorious of the experience was viewing the Northwestern Glacier. Thanks abundantly to our Captain and Guide for the day! The crew was also amazing.

I am so happy I booked this boat tour with Kenai Fjords! After our 7 day cruise from Vancouver to Seward, where I spotted nothing from the ship (others saw whales but I didn't), I was bummed until I went on this boat tour. Almost immediately, we spotted orcas! Then 2 different humpback whales (including a fluke), puffins, sea otters, sea lions, a fast moving porpoise and the piece de resistance... A huge glacier! We got so close! The crew fished a piece of glacier ice out of the water and we got to hold it. I even had a glacier ice water! The clearest ice you've ever seen. The boat captain and crew members were so attentive, informative, and fun. Even though my kid got sick on the boat, the majority of people were fine and I didn't think the boat rocked too much. Every time we stopped, our captain made sure to stay for awhile and maneuver the boat for the best viewing of the wildlife. I took 400+ photos. This was the highlight of my 12 day trip to Alaska. The boat also has a great burrito, chips, and salsa for lunch, plenty of snacks/drinks for purchase and some freshly baked chocolate chip cookies to end the day. They also held our luggage in their secured room in their office while we were in the tour. They made everything very easy from start to finish.

Cannot recommend enough!! We saw everything - whales, sea lions, otters, porpoises. And the glacier was breathtaking. We had a perfect weather day with calm seas and no rain. Service on board was great. Good food for lunch, good drinks, and surprise sweet treat on the way back to the dock.
