Kenai fjord wonder Tour - The cruise was excellent and the staff friendly and service oriented. Ship itself was well maintained and technical staff knew what they were doing and where to see views, waterfalls, and all types of wildlife, in the sea and on the cliffs! Easy to book online, and seamless in ticketing, boarding, etc. overall, great experience and well worth the price! Sue

Outstanding Captain & Crew! - Saturday, May 10 was an exceptional weather day in Seward! We went out on a Kenai fjiords national Park tour and celebration of Mother’s Day. Our vessel, Orca Voyager, was a large and comfortable catamaran which made for smooth sailing. Would like to give a huge shout out to the following; Captain Mike, for a safe and enjoyable day out on the water, and also for making my granddaughter Laura feel extra special. Hannah, for her exceptional eagle eyes and her ability to find all of the wildlife in the water. She spotted the first humpback whale, the killer whales, the dolls purpose, and the black bear that was on the beach… Don’t see that every day! Sonya, for taking the time to make everyone on board feel special, and for putting forth a genuine effort to remember everyone’s names. We had seven people in our party, and she called us by name throughout the entire trip. She was fun and a joy to be around. And last but not least, Isaac. Isaac made sure everyone everyone’s needs room at on board, and was very knowledgeable about the area and the wildlife. Kenai fjiords and their captains and crew made a day on the water and exceptional time for us all! And their booking and check-in staff deserve recognition also- smooth easy processes all around. Highly recommend!

Fantastic Staff - The Bay Tour was fantastic, but we all felt that our experience with the front desk staff was supreme. Tia and Abigail endured long guest lines, worked through a seemingly difficult technology switch, and got everyone on the boat in time.

Poster photos! - It was the first time I decided for a holiday in a cold place and I left very prejudiced. Contrary to my expectations the spectacular views deserve some sacrifice The cruise is organized very well to enjoy all the best points (poster photos!). The ship was not very crowded so we could fully enjoy all the services and trips offered. Recommended!

WOW - AMAZING - Don't Miss This! - WOW! What a great tour. Saw a great number of marine mammals including orcas, fin whale, humpback whales - they were bubble net feeding - AMAZING! The ship's captain dropped a microphone in the water and we heard the humpbacks communicating with one another. Also saw a glacier cleave. if given the opportunity, I would go on this tour everyday.

Amazing - Our captain was very knowledgeable and explained everything we were seeing. She gave everyone the best chance to see the scenery and all the animals. At the end of the day we were lucky enough to get to see orcas and she truly went above and beyond to allow everyone to enjoy watching them. The entire trip was amazing and worth every penny spent for sure.

What an experience!!!! - This tour exceeded our expectations for sure. We were able to see sea lions, otters and orcas. Our captain did a great job pointing out all the landmarks and the sea life. The glacier was amazing and we even got to hold some ice from the glacier itself! Would definitely recommend this tour to everyone!
