All Seward Tours & Excursions in 2026

We really enjoyed our 6 hour tour this past weekend. We saw most of the wildlife in the packet, and all of the glacier types. This was a bucket-list item for me and the crew of Skana did a great job. I really loved that we were provided binoculars and had the opportunity to hold (and drink) glacial ice. It was a 5-star experience, but I still believe there’s some room for improvement: - given the cost per person, I feel the lunch option could be improved upon a bit. The sandwich was good, but we were starving towards the end of the excursion. There are a couple snack options available for purchase downstairs, but this left a bit to be desired. The option for fresh fruit or juice would’ve been lovely, although we did appreciate the complimentary tea, coffee, and water. - this isn’t the fault of the crew by any means, but I wonder if an adults-only cruise would be a possible option in the future. There were a few children on our trip screaming and running, blocking doors, and overall just creating a hazard. I understand parents are doing their best, but it did create stress at some points during our cruise. Parents are essentially begged by staff to keep their children safe, but they only have so many staff with so many eyes whose priority is guiding the ship, not babysitting. Overall, we enjoyed the trip and I’d do it again. The biggest regret was not catching any humpback whales.

James was an excellent tour guide. We enjoyed our ride from Seward to Anchorage with stopping along the way for attractions, scenic vantage points and our lunch stop in Girdwood. I would highly recommend this tour if you don't want to be on a crowded train or bus from Seward to Anchorage.

Such a fun transfer. Our tour guide communicated with us prior to arrival to ease external from ship comfort. The entire day she explained the sights and shared in our excitement. Above and beyond she loved taking pictures so she took and shared the pictures of us at ea h sight. 1000 A++++++

Great experience! The cruise staff are friendly abd helpful. Tips: arrive early if you need tobparking. The parking lot fills up quickly. Take dramamine at least an hour before reaching the wavy part of the cruise which is 30-40 minutes after taking off. We saw humpback whale, mostly its back and saw its tail one time. Not the whole body. Saw seals, sea lions, all kinds of birds, etc. Highly recommended!

This was a fuill day tour that also included a lunch. It was amazing. The sites were beautiful. We saw whales, puffins, seal lions, otters and all sorts of other sea life. The glaciers and information we got about the fjords, and glaciers and other parts of the tour were very good. We stopped near a huge glacier and turned the boat off. We were able to hear the glacier sounds and see it as it moved and fell into the waters. It was such a phenomenal exxperience and day! Would definitely do it again!

I went on this tour with my daughter and her family (4 children). The tour was well organized, safety conscious and the whole family loved it. The puppies were fun for the kids to hold, the sled ride was exciting and gave us a taste of what it would be like to be on an Iditarod race. The presentation talking about what racers need to bring with them was informative. Overall a great tour.

Helicopter ride was amazing. The operator did an amazing job taking off and landing the helicopter. The Huskies dogs and puppies were so sweet. Absolutely loved holding the puppies. They were so cute! The energy and excitement of these huskies was so exciting. The crew taking care of the huskies were incredible. Our musher was student in college studying to be a vet. What an incredible experience for him. I would highly recommend this excursion. I would love to do this again!

Fizemos um upgrade para a classe B e fomos na parte superior do trem, quase 100% de vidro, o que garantiu visibilidade completa das montanhas nevadas. A comida estava ótima e a equipe bastante atenciosa! We upgraded to class B and rode in the upper part of the train, which is almost 100% glass, which gave us a full view of the snow-capped mountains. The food was great and the staff was very attentive!
