Join a cruise that guarantees wildlife viewing and offers the opportunity to observe sea otters, whales, sea lions, porpoise, harbor seals, brown bears, black-tail deer, bald eagles and a variety of marine birds. An onboard naturalist will explain the workings of this remarkable ecosystem. You'll also learn about the sea otters' recovery following their near-extinction at the hands of Russian fur hunters in the early 1800s.
The water-jet-driven tour vessel has been designed to navigate Southeast Alaska's narrow island passages, allowing wildlife viewing at close range. The boat also features a warm cabin with enclosed seating, large windows and a topside observation deck for unparalleled photo opportunities and to fully experience your quest with all your senses.
Notes:
The tour operator guarantees your group will see an otter, a whale or a bear. If not, you'll receive a $100 cash refund as you disembark the vessel. Dress warmly in layers with a wind- and waterproof outer layer; bring gloves, a scarf and a warm hat. Wheelchair access may be difficult; please consult the Shore Excursions team before booking for details. Electric scooters cannot be accommodated.
