We can't say enough good about our pleasant experience with Major Marine Tours. They put on a first rate trip for guests from every aspect of the operation: boat cleanliness, boat safety, knowledge of staff, and professionalism and courtesy of staff. Superb! Also the Parks Service naturalist was both knowledgeable and fun, and he really kept the kids entertained throughout... More

We went out on the National Park cruise in the middle of a big storm. On the way out to the park, a woman lost her footing on the stairs, fell and hit her head. She had to be brought in to the hospital. This took about an hour. Because of the storm, the captain decided to cut our tour... More

When we arrived at Whittier in a very short time we were on the boat and out to view... More

Our cruise from Seward on Resurrection Bay on the MV Chugach was most delightful. Saw a lot of wildlife. Good day - we were blessed with good weather although it started out iffy. Some folks who pan this excursion maybe should lower their expections and just chill and go with the flow. This is Alaska. You get what you get... More

Husband and I boarded the Chugach tour boat, and we all headed out towards Resurrection Bay. The ride was smooth, and chilly, and we saw a lot of wildlife: sea otters, 3 humpback whales, thousands of Arctic Terns on a rocky island, hundreds of Stellar Sea Lions, cute little Puffins, and gorgeous mountains on all sides. Our boat captain gently... More

We took the four-hour evening cruise, which included an optional slamon and prime-rib buffet for $20 more. If you can eat aboard a rolling ship, the food was not bad. The staff was a lot of fun, and the captain got us very close to several humpback whales! We saw everything from from puffins to sea lions, mountain goats and,... More

We blasted out to "bird island", crew located a whale (good job), blasted back home. Little/no narrative by the tour guides, were so far from shore to/from the island we couldn't really look for critters, then we slowed down on the return so's not to make the 3-hour tour end 30-minutes ahead of schedule.
