Itinerario
Este crucero de aventura es el único crucero en embarcación pequeña que explora el remoto fiordo noroeste tallado en un glaciar en el Parque Nacional de los Fiordos de Kenai. Ideal para fotógrafos, observadores de aves y entusiastas de la observación de ballenas, este crucero de 8,5 horas sale del muelle del Seward Harbor 360 Hotel a las 8:30 a. m. y regresa a las 5:00 p. m. El crucero viajará a través de Resurrection Bay, el Parque Nacional Kenai Fjords, el Refugio Nacional Marítimo de Vida Silvestre de Alaska, Cape Resurrection, Granite Pass, Harris Bay y el espectacular Northwestern Fjord. Debido al tamaño del barco y la duración del crucero, los niños menores de 12 años no son aptos para este crucero.
Narrado por nuestro experto y experimentado capitán y tripulación, los huéspedes tienen la oportunidad única de explorar áreas remotas y vírgenes del Parque Nacional de los Fiordos de Kenai con un grupo pequeño. Según las condiciones del mar y las oportunidades de observación de la vida silvestre, la ruta del capitán hacia el fiordo del noroeste puede variar de un día a otro. Después de navegar por Resurrection Bay, explorará las islas Chiswell (parte del Refugio Nacional Marítimo de Vida Silvestre de Alaska) o Cape Resurrection, hogar de miles de aves marinas que anidan, leones marinos de Steller y otros animales salvajes. Luego, el crucero ingresará a Harris Bay, donde lo recibirán con vistas de hermosas calas escondidas, montañas escarpadas y posiblemente ballenas que se alimentan. Una vez que ingresemos al fiordo del noroeste, prácticamente intacto e indómito, busque los numerosos glaciares alpinos ubicados en lo alto de los acantilados. Visitará los glaciares Northwestern, Anchor y Ojive al final de Northwestern Fjord. Pasará tiempo frente al glaciar para observar el desprendimiento del glaciar.
Navegue por Resurrection Bay, el golfo de Alaska y Harris Bay en busca de vida salvaje como ballenas jorobadas, orcas, leones marinos, focas comunes, aves marinas y más.

Good tour. Really raining hard bring good rain gear. Excellent boat handling. Whales kinda cooperated
We had a wonderful, very informative trip
The crew was very professional and kept us well informed with lots of information. The ship was also comfortable and they kept to the advertised schedule. The only disappointing thing was the lack of wildlife viewing. I understand it is nature and not predictable, but they made it out to be more than it was. For example, they said we saw humback whale bubble feeding - it really wasn't and wasn't even close to bubble feeding. The highlight of the trip was the glaciers, especially Northwestern Glacier.
Fantastic cruise in every way!! Comfortable boat and wonderful and knowledgeable crew. The captain went out of his way to find humpbacks bubble net fishing which was absolutely thrilling. Lots of other marine and wildlife including orcas. Cannot recommend highly enough!
Captain and first mate/naturalist were superb! Commentary on the sights and animals we saw excellent. Skills at sea were fantastic as we did hit some areas of swells.
We chose the 8:30 option on a small boat, and there were 35 of us. The landscapes were magnificent, and we were able to observe many animals and birds Justin and Carl were very professional and super nice I recommend it without hesitation!
We had one of the best experiences of our Alaska trip with Major Marine tours. Their staff is extremely polite, courteous, knowledgeable and helpful. We saw 4 types of whales and more than 8 types of birds and the captain always made sure to stop and give us enough time to take in the moment. Captain John, Rowen and Carl were an amazing crew - they made sure we were safe and comfortable on the cruise. We took the 8.5 hour cruise and throughout the day, the crew checked up on all passengers, suggested remedies for people feeling seasick, gave us commentary about the animals and the places we were seeing, even background about the glaciers and answered all of our questions. I'd whole heartedly recommend Major Marine tours to my friends and family.
This is one of the two best things we did over our extensive two-week DIY tour of SouthCentral Alaska (the other was flightseeing over Denali). A friend recommended, and he was spot on. Captain Justin and Naturalist Carl were OUTSTANDING. Love Carl! It was a chock-a-block full 8.5 hours. No “you’ll snooze after lunch on the way back.” Oh no. We continued making great stops and seeing WILDLIFE. We were fortunate to have a good weather day. We met lovely people on board — among the manageable crowd of 36 — who even enhanced our experience. Lunch was great.
The boat tours through the Kenjai Fjords are always a great adventure, and you never know what to expect. This time the sea was very stormy. Unfortunately, this was not tolerable for every margin. Despite everything, we were able to observe otters, bald eagles, various whales, puffins, and an immense glacier calving on this tour. The tour is highly recommended. The crew also took excellent care of the guests. And they shine with expertise and many years of experience.
If it’s rainy, wear waterproof everything and bring gloves! Thank goodness we wore waterproof shell over our jeans. It was a good trip although the weather was stormy and very very wet and cold. People hogged up the cabin to stay warm and not very willing to share their tables. Many seasick passengers due to rocking boat. Jack, the deck hand was amazing!
