Traveler Reviews

I really didn’t know what to expect going in on this day, but everything was extremely well thought out and ran extremely smooth! First off, I got to the train station in Anchorage, I wasn’t sure if I was in the right line, if I was meeting people, or what, but I realized that I was right by going in the line to the ticket booth, just said my name and what I was doing and it was taken care of for me, she gave me my ticket and I waited. Once on the train I realized I was sitting in a section with others on the adventure I was (there were many others going to Seward for their own plans) but at some point the guides, Brianna, Ben and Alex got on the train and introduced themselves which became comforting to those like me who didn’t know what was going on. The day was full of amazing opportunities, and being awe struck from the beauty I was surrounded by. I went early September so I dressed warm, 3 pants, 4 shirts, a rain coat, winter gear and the kayaking gear, take my advice and don’t d

The weather on the day we went was not good and very windy so the lead guide Illiya decided to go rafting instead of kayaking for safety purpose. We still had tons of fun to see the icebergs from different angles. The crew is amazing, they prepped everything you might need and pack your lunch in cute lunchboxes. After the mid of the trip where we were at the glacier overview, the crew distributed hot chocolate. Imagine drinking these while watching millions of years glacier in front of you. The train trip also amazed us. They also helped taking nice pics. In short, def recommend anyone who are in the area.

"Magical" is the perfect description of this tour. Kayaking to the glacier was surreal. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who is physically capable.
and the water is very cold; I recommend wearing quick drying/wool layers and a waterproof coat and waterproof boots. I did get wet on both portions of the tour, but wasn't cold because I was wearing quick drying pants and wool base layers/socks.
