We had great weather and the water wasn't so ice chocked that we were able to get fairly close to the glacier! I would recommend this cruise to most everyone. But of course we had clear skies and warm weather. more

I recently went on this tour on Adventure Bound Alaska. The captain did a really good job of narrating throughout the journey.

They have food and drinks at... more

We were fortunate to visit with Adventurebound June11 on a sunny warm day. The scenery was stunning, blue ice, waterfalls all over, the ice flows with seals and their pups, bears and numerous eagles and whales. We were able to get close to the face of the glacier, saw the drops, and the sounds of the breaking ice were incredible.... more

As a local that has been throughout Southeast Alaska, I would say this is the best value for an excursion from Juneau. A trip down to Tracy Arm is beautiful, and as far as I am concerned it is better $$$ spent then a day triip to Glacier Bay. The reason I say this is that you spend a lot... more

We were with Dawn Princess Cruise in Alaska on August 2008 and seeing the Sawyer Glacier in Tracy Arm Fjord in outstanding clear-sky weather was one of the best experiences in this cruise. It was absolutely spectacular day to behold according to Dean Paige, a naturalist, who was narrating the event as we navigate through the narrow passageway. It truly... more

We were on a cruise through Tracy Arm Fjord at the end of May 2007. It was absolutley stunning! We were a tad bit dissapointed that we did not get very close to either of the glaciers, but we were close enough to see them and get some nice photos. You need to go later in the season to get... more
