Great half day trip from Anchorage. Nice scenic drive to the lake and the boat tour was interesting and provided great views



Saia do centro de Anchorage para uma escapada rápida e panorâmica a um dos glaciares mais icônicos e acessíveis do Alasca. Viaje ao longo do impressionante Turnagain Arm e para o Vale de Portage, cercado por picos elevados, glaciares pendurados e floresta tropical temperada exuberante. Ao chegar ao Lago Portage, embarque no MV Ptarmigan para um cruzeiro inesquecível de uma hora através de águas de icebergs para a cara imponente do Glaciar Portage. Embora as condições no lago possam variar, a viagem oferece vistas incomparáveis do glaciar e da paisagem circundante. Durante todo o cruzeiro, o pessoal de bordo fornece narrativas envolventes sobre a história glacial da área, vida selvagem e características naturais. Com transporte de ida e volta incluído e uma duração total de apenas 3,5 horas, o Portage Glacier Express oferece uma experiência de Alasca de alto impacto perfeita para hóspedes com tempo limitado ou qualquer pessoa que queira uma aventura rápida e imersiva de Anchorage.
Viaje pela paisagística e deslumbrante Seward Highway enquanto faz seu caminho cerca de 50 milhas a sul de Anchorage. Conduza ao longo do Turnagain Arm, uma via navegável famosa pelo nome do Capitão Cook. Passeie por áreas pitorescas com pássaros migratórios, cabras de montanha ao longo de falésias rochosas e mantenha o olhar para o fenômeno da "maré borrosa", tudo enquanto recebe a narrativa de seu Guia ao longo do caminho para o Lago Portage.
Uma vez que você chegar ao site de barco da Portage Glacier Cruises, desfrutar da paisagem do Lago Portage, onde você está cercado por glaciares e belas vistas. Você embarcará no M / V Ptarmigan, um navio construído sob medida e único barco no Lago Portage, que o levará à frente do Glacier Portage. Deslize sobre o lago e rodeie-se de cachoeiras em cascata, espie para cabras de montanha nos picos acima, e desfrute do tempo tanto dentro da ponte principal aquecida com vistas de 360 graus ou na ponte superior com ar livre, vista livre da beleza que o rodeia. O cruzeiro inclui narrativa envolvente sobre a flora local, fauna, história da área e fatos interessantes sobre glaciares e significado cultural do Vale do Portage.

We booked the Portage Glacier Cruise and Wildlife Explorer with van transport thru Tripadvisor. The day before, the tour operators (Ben) texted us to say we were the only 2 on the noon tour so they had moved our time back to 1100, so we were told to go to 509 W 6th Ave at 1040, so we did. We checked in with Brooks and told him about our notification. He saw our tickets and said ok so we went with his group. It ended up being a drive by two glaciers and Alaska’s conservation center, but no Porter Glacier cruise. We requested our money back for the cruise portion at least if not the whole tour. Ben refunded $47.30 to our trip advisor account as a credit and we want a refund to our original payment please. The BR #1442623747, and was for 2 adults. We won’t be able to use the credit prior to expiration. Please advise me what to do. Thank you. Anita Walker 18065351103 grant.walker56@gmail.com
This is really worth the $$$. Just short drive, really up-close with the glacier ! Enough time not to give bored. Magnificent! We did the classic train adventure ride the last time we came and missed this! We could just get this Portage cruise instead. Thisbis really beautiful! The staff are nice and knowledgeable!!! A must see tour!
This was a great getaway tour from Anchorage! It's a beautiful drive up Turnagain Arm to the glacier. The Ptarmigan Cruise gets you close to the glacier. The Captain and crew were very knowledgeable. It's absolutely beautiful, I would highly recommend this tour
An hour drive to the glacier. The guides on board the board were informative and entertaining! Pickup was convenient and on time. Beautiful morning and driver made quick stop at Willawaw Creek to see all the salmon in the river.
We took the Portage Glacier Express with van transfer from Anchorage. Thursday, August 27, 2026. At 9:00 am. With a total value of €216.64. For 2 people. The experience of seeing the glacier up close was BEAUTIFUL. On the boat, they explained and informed us about the glacier. There was kindness, willingness, and excellent treatment. Our complaint is about the person who transported us in the van, to and from Anchorage. I cannot say his name, as the gentleman did not introduce himself. He did not say a single word. He was serious, irritated, and bad-tempered. All of us in the van were quiet, scared, and intimidated; we didn't dare do anything but breathe. We were supposed to be given explanations, information, and stories… NO. Not a single word. Thank goodness, the glacier left us amazed.
The transfer was smooth, but the driver was a bit rude. Did not introduce self or give any information about transfer. The boat tour was excellent. the gala jet was beautiful, staff friendly and helpful.
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.
