The Glacier Explorer trip is excellent. Our guide was entertaining and provided us with just the right amount of information. To highlight why we should not fall in, he had us dip our fingers in the water - it was freezing. Major hypothermia would set in. Make sure to wear a jacket, it is chilly on the water with all...

Good experience and well executed by a team who know what they are doing. The lake and the glacier are a special experience but at 140 bucks, it is steep for what it is but outside of hikes and flights, there is little else to do. We would do it again More

You are well warned before this trip begins that there is a walk requiring some fitness to get there - not really suitable for wheelchairs or the infirm that wouldn't climb two flights of stairs or go for a thirty minute walk.

This was a fanastic cruise. We went on the 3pm cruise, which puts you on the lake in time for the sun to disappear and it to get very cold very quicky. But it still doesn't detract from the amazing sights you see on the lake. Just remember to take a jacket! More

We were a bit torn if we wanted to take this excursion as it is not cheap but we decided to go for it since it was such a unique offering. We had a great time and were so happy we made the decision to take this excursion. You are picked up at the Hermitage and driven in a large... More
