Parti dal centro di Anchorage per una fuga veloce e panoramica in uno dei ghiacciai più iconici e accessibili dell'Alaska.

All'arrivo a Portage Lake, sali a bordo della MV Ptarmigan per un'indimenticabile crociera di un'ora attraverso le acque punteggiate di iceberg fino all'imponente faccia del ghiacciaio Portage.

Itinerario
Percorri la panoramica e splendida Seward Highway mentre ti dirigi a circa 50 miglia a sud di Anchorage. Guida lungo il Turnagain Arm, un corso d'acqua chiamato notoriamente dal capitano Cook. Passa accanto a zone panoramiche con uccelli migratori, capre di montagna lungo le scogliere lungo la strada e tieni d'occhio il fenomeno della "marea di trivellazione", il tutto mentre ricevi la narrazione dalla tua Guida lungo la strada per Portage Lake.
Una volta arrivati al sito della barca Portage Glacier Cruises, ammirate lo scenario del lago Portage, dove siete circondati da ghiacciai e panorami incantevoli. Salirai a bordo della M / V Ptarmigan, una nave costruita su misura e unica barca sul lago Portage, che ti porterà alla faccia del ghiacciaio Portage. Scivola sul lago e circondati da cascate, spia le capre di montagna sulle cime soprastanti e goditi il tempo sia all'interno del ponte principale riscaldato con vista a 360 gradi o sul ponte superiore con aria aperta, visione senza ostacoli della bellezza che ti circonda. La crociera include una narrazione coinvolgente sulla flora, la fauna, la storia della zona e fatti interessanti sui ghiacciai e sul significato culturale della Portage Valley.

Breath taking views! Wonderful Portage Glacier cruise experience! Loved that the vessel got super close to the glacier! Thanks Matt!
We rode the van to a boat to Portage Glacier. It was amazing! The narration was excellent, and the views were breathtaking! Highly recommend!
Great experience, awesome friendly people. Enjoyed the whole package.
INCREDIBLE views on the drive from Anchorage, great boat ride right up to the glacier, and knowledgeable and informative guides all around. I learned so much about the geography and history of the area. The ease of the trip with the van transport was a great bang for your buck, and I couldn't recommend this excursion more!!
I definitely recommend this tour! Our driver & boat captain, George was really funny & engaging! He narrated the sites on the hour drive on way to the boat, which made that so much more than transportation! The ride on the boat was fantastic, we got up very close to the glacier and even got to see it calve! Our tour was sold out that day but the boat did not feel full or crowded at all. There was plenty of room around the rails for everyone to see and take pictures. I’ve already made notes on my personal itinerary that I share with friends that this is a must do!
We have been in Anchorage Alaska for two days and it hasn't stopped raining keeping us indoors.. So we decided to go and have alook at a glazier, we would be able to see it whether it was raining or not. Turned out to be a great day and would recommend this tour if you just want to go on a boat for an hour in whatever weather is.
Excellent experience, the commentary was interesting and fun. We had good weather and the views were incredible.
Just the right amount of time; 1 hour drive each way along the spectacular Turnagain Arm and one hour on the boat. Driver and boat personnel were friendly, funny and professional. Great half day tour.
I only had a short time in Anchorage and this was perfect. Scheduling was easy and pick up site was very close for me. George our driver/ narrator/tour guide was awesome. Most importantly was the boat tour. The boat had upper open air deck or lower climate-controlled deck which made it nice for everyone. The lake was a nice blue color and surrounded by mountains. The views were stunning. On one side the mountains were snow covered and green foliage on the other. The glacier was pretty large and had a blue tint. The crew pulled a piece of ice from the water and we could see how compacted it was. I learned so much about glaciers.
Tour guide George was excellent he was entertaining and informative! The whole crew did a really good job.
