Full-Day Kenai Fjords National Park Cruise

Frodo_10, Sep 2026

Go for it .. book the trip and do it

This is highly recommended. I did the 7.5 hr trip . Super well organised despite numbers and always space to see . Get allocated table , lunch was a generous filled sandwich , crisps snack and drink ( other foods can be purchased through the tour £ and can wander round ship to see what need and want to see .. good space for everyone outside for this . Fantastic Captain with great commentary and great crew .. good team spirit . Easy location to pick up . Amazing scene and wildlife with perfect background commentary and alerts seeing the spectacular Holgate and Aialuk Glaciers .. the latter “ calving “ .. a stunning and amazing day ..

Phenomenal tour!

Ian, our tour guide was phenomenal! He was extraordinarily knowledgeable- and tremendously funny. He had the entire bus load in laughter most of the tour. If you take this tour, and my wife and I highly recommend you do, we know you’ll love Ian if he is your guide.

Choppy sea but smooth sailing inside

Kenai Fjords National Park Glacier & Wildlife Cruise

emilykV7082KD, Sep 2026

One the the best tours in Alaska!

Such an incredible tour! One of my favorite tours to do in Alaska. We had great views for nature and wildlife, even got lucky enough to see a Fin Whale! Our crew (Captain Greg, Karlee, and Aidan) took such good care of us! It was truly a customized experience!

B5115SFemilyl, Sep 2026

Book this tour!!!!

This cruise is worth every penny! The glaciers and wildlife viewing were out of this world, we saw orcas, sea lions, puffins, seals, and sea otters! Also, you couldn’t ask for a better crew. They treated guests like family, made sure everyone was well-fed, and went out of their way to make sure we were all having a great time. 10 out of 10 experience, cannot recommend enough!

sdchristie17, Sep 2026

Amazing tour, awesome views of mountains and glaciers, great service and captains narration of the landscape/wildlife!

Anchorage Trolley’s 1-Hour City Tour

Michelle_F, Sep 2026

The trolly ride is worth the time. Money well spent! Having the narration added to the experience. Would go again!

Portage Glacier Cruise Experience 1 hr drive from Anchorage

crystal_c, Sep 2026

Waterproof ur shoes& bring a pancho.quick tour but so worth it.

Perfect length for teens who just want to play video games. Boat has snacks and pop. Has some educational things to look at as you go down the waterway. The lady giving the informative talk is very hard to hear in the bottom of boat. If you go to the top of boat you can hear PERFECTLY. we went early Sept where weather was low 60’s but on the boat it was in the 30’s. I brought backpack with ear coverings, hat, gloves, and coat. I waterproofed our sneakers and brought a cheap poncho and glad I did because it rained the whole time up there. I DID NOT want to go up top but my kid made me and IT WAS SOOOOO WORTH IT!! The staff was super friendly and offered to take pics for everyone which was awesome! The scenery was amazing. I must be honest that the “glacier” was just snow that came down the mountain and not really a glacier BUT it was white/blue and absolutely stunning so we didn’t care. the captain looks like a true salty fisherman and is definitely picture worthy! He stayed near the snow for about 15 minutes so we all had time to snap away. We went out and back. Super simple. Quick, but long enough. Bring a selfie stick, poncho, binoculars to see top of mountains, and charge that camera! Prior to this we stopped at the Alaska animal conservation which is only 15 minutes away. It was Nice but the food prices were INSANE so bring ur own snacks. ($10 for hotdog and $6 for a capri sun juice pouch😳)
