Stunning scenery
Kelly_B, October 2026
This is a very long trip. We did not do the half-day cruise but instead went on the full-day whale watching Cruise when they canceled the Arctic fjord Cruise. The scenery is absolutely stunning. We did find whales but only for about 40 minutes of the 9 hours trip. Highly recommend. Great guides

Nice, Clean Boat
M8891TNcarols, October 2026
This was a very nice boat, clean with lots of indoor and outdoor seating areas. Beautiful scenery. The stop at the fishing station was very interesting. I know the guide was speaking a lot of the time, but it was hard to understand her accent, and you couldn't hear her if you were on the outdoor decks (where we wanted to be to see the scenery).
