Great Experience - My notes from the Resurrection Bay Tour With Fox Island (which we called "the wildlife tour"): Nice, knowledgeable, professional crew. Sea otters, bald eagles, seals, mountain goats. The boat gets amazingly close to the shoreline. Arrive early to get a good seat on the boat. The only less than excellent was the meal on Fox Island. Otherwise, A+.

Fun for the kids - The weather could have been better but welcome to Alaska. Fox island was great but they didn’t let us go very far on the beach, was a lot different then when I went there in high school that’s for sure.

Great guide with once in a lifetime views - Sea animals were everywhere even though it was a cloudy and rainy day. This is a must do when visiting.

Amazing!! - We had an amazing time. Even though the weather didn’t cooperate and rainy. Our captain was great and we’r still able to see otters, sea lions and even an orca! And the staff on Fox island was great with a perfect lunch.

Definitely a must see. 10 out of 10 - This tour was absolutely wonderful. We were fortunate enough to see humpback whales and orcas.

Fox island cruise - The weather was not great during our cruise. Mist and rain. It was hard to appreciate what we were seeing. The captain did a good job of describing wildlife and the history of certain areas. Overall just an okay experience.

Wrong tour description - Please don’t opt for this tour which gives wrong description - this description with bear glacier pass by is not included. When we checked in I’m surprised to know this trip doesn’t have glacier pass by. Viator customer service did not give a damn when I emailed them about this. Better book it on their own site instead of viator
