Glacier Quest Crucero en coche
Descripción
Conduzca por Seward Highway a lo largo del pintoresco Turnagain Arm hasta Whittier. El crucero Glacier Quest te lleva desde la pintoresca ciudad costera de Whittier hasta Blackstone Bay, un espectacular fiordo de aguas profundas lleno de glaciares donde te esperan dos glaciares de marea y varios glaciares alpinos. ¡Esté atento a las nutrias marinas, los leones marinos de Steller, los osos, las cabras montesas, las ballenas y más! Verá varios glaciares, incluido el glaciar Tebenkof, llamado así por Mikhail Demitrievich Tebenkof, un topógrafo destacado cuyos mapas fueron los primeros gráficos de las aguas de Alaska publicados en 1852. El glaciar Northland descansa majestuosamente, aferrado al borde de la imponente montaña. Blackstone y Beloit son glaciares de marea que han tallado un camino empinado para llegar al agua salada de Prince William Sound. Navegue de cerca a estos enormes glaciares para observar signos reveladores de movimiento señalados por el distintivo "estallido" del desprendimiento del hielo del glaciar.

Amazing trip out to see glaciers. Incredible glacier and wildlife views. Wow! It was rainy and foggy when we left Whittier but still had amazing up close views of the glaciers. Highly recommend this excursion. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable. Food was good.

Great tour. We enjoyed all that this tour had to offer. The views from the boat were amazing and the captain made sure that everyone got to see everything no matter where you were on the boat. Wonderful tour.

Thank you so much for your recommendation. We believe that is the highest compliment we can receive. We hope you will join us again in Whittier to explore Prince William Sound.
Fantastic glacier quest cruise. The entire staff is outstanding from booking, to boarding, and the time onboard the vessel. The entire staff is professional and personable. They get you up close and personal with the glaciers, sea life and sea birds. The seafood chowder is amazing!!!! We’d book this again in a heartbeat and plan to be back again in the future. Thank you for a wonderful day and beautiful memories!!!!
We can't wait to welcome you back to Whittier to explore Prince William Sound with us again. Thank you so much for your review and letting us be a part of your Alaska adventure!
The pilot was excellent at pointing out landmarks along the way and stopped frequently for longer and closer looks at otters, sea lions, etc. Accommodations on the boat were comfortable and roomy, despite the rainy weather which kept visitors indoors for the most part.
Thank you for your review on Trip Advisor and Google! As an Alaska family-owned business, reviews and feedback let us know what we are doing right and where we can improve. Thank you again for taking the time to provide with yours and for letting us be your guide to Prince William Sound.
This was such as amazing experience. The entire crew were so friendly and helpful. The Salmon Chowder was really good and my friend enjoyed the Veggie Chili. Our tour had us seeing seals, otters, breaching orcas, and a huge chunk of glacier break off. The crew pulled some fresh glacier ice out for us to enjoy in our drinks.
Thank you for sharing your review and experience with us. Sounds like you got to experience everything Prince William Sound has to offer and we are so grateful that you chose us to be your guide to Prince William Sound.
