This cruise line is unique because it's more intimate than a large cruise line and you have better access to wildlife and nature because its smaller and can navigate into the narrower canals. This allows you to see amazing landscapes and wildlife, learn about Alaskan culture from Alaskans themselves, and meet fellow passengers that you can forge deep friendships with!
When we boarded our expedition boat, we saw an impressive menagerie of wild life: sea lions, otters, herring gulls, and two humpback whales!
Glacier Bay and Tracy Arm were two of my favorite stops of the trip! Glacier Bay National Park provided an even more stunning display of wildlife than we'd seen in Sitka. We saw sea otters, a brown bear, mountain goats, a lone grey wolf, humpback whales, harbor seals, tufted puffins, and many other sea birds. One of my favorite stops was the Glacier Bay Lodge, which displayed a reticulated humpback whale skeleton. Seeing a full whale skeleton up close really heightened my awareness of the massiveness of the whales we had been viewing from the safety of the ship. They are so huge! Photo by Heather Mathies
