Cruise from Seward into Kenai Fjords for tidewater glaciers, whales, puffins, otters, and dramatic coastal scenery with lunch included.

“This is a great tour! I can’t believe we actually got to see Orcas, black bears, eagles, seals, sea lions, otters, puffins AND beautiful glaciers!!! This is a must do trip in Seward and Major Marine does a great job of operating the cruise. The staff is friendly and they work hard to keep things clean. Be sure take precautions if you are prone to seasickness!”
