My girlfriend and me went on a 7,5 hours tour on 29th August. The trip start on time and you can fell how this is very professional service from the start. Staff even helpt me with a parking, and the service on board was excellent also. On whole trip some of the staff is going around too check is everybody ok, because of potential sea sickness, and captain all the way explain secif8c nature and wildlife situation that you are currently observing. On whole trip the best and most exciting moments was when we saw humpback whale! At this time if the year it is not easy to see whales, but we were blessed to see humpback whale jumo from the water! Crazy, so beautiful and unique moment! Unforgettable! And whale jumped 5 times, in a half an hour searching and fallawing whale by captain! Another highlight are glachers, and this is also so special that the whale trip is one of best experiences that I ever had! Must do!

Unfortunately, the day I went was rainy, and the weather was so cold and unpleasant, but overall, I still had a good experience. The staffs were friendly and service-oriented, and the narration was great. I got to see some amazing animals. One thing I would like to mention is the management of solo travelers. I was assigned to sit with a large family who seemed to have little regard for manners and acted as if I didn't exist. The worst part was when I went outside with my bag, and when I returned, they had taken my seat. Perhaps they thought I would never come back, but that was my seat. This even happened twice, but for the second time, they apologized to me so I will let it slide. I understand this wasn't directly your fault, it was more about the behavior of those individuals. However, I still want to provide this feedback in the hope that a better solution might be found for solo travelers to avoid situations like this in the future.

The 7 hr. tour we were set up for had to be cancelled or changed to a 4 hr. tour due to 15' swales further out. If this happens to you, don't fret. A hump back whale and about 8-9 orcas didn't like the swales either and came in further to our boat, so we missed nothing. OK, we may have missed seeing an iceberg, but absolutely nothing else. The crew were amazing, and we saw over 20 waterfalls, 5-6 eagles, otters, seals, seagulls, and had a FABULOUS experience. People kept apologizing for the rainy weather, but we didn't go to Alaska expecting to see sunshine and beaches. We experienced Alaska in September by train, planes, buses and this boat trip. Soooo glad we didn't waste our 'once in a lifetime trip' on a cruise ship. We would have missed soooo much! Thanks again for such a great time! The meals were great as well. :)~~Bob & Kathy Dunlap-Medina, OH

I can't say enough good things about this experience! Fabulous customer service, as I emailed with many questions before and after booking and they were so thorough and patient. We came to Seward by cruise ship and were leaving that evening by train. Major Marine staff were waiting for us as we exited our cruise ship - they tagged our luggage, loaded it (and us) in the van and transported us to the hotel. While we were on the tour, they transported our luggage to the train for us - seamless experience. Now for the tour - amazing views and so relaxing! The crew (I think it was Justin, Scott, Marissa and Rebecca) were fabulous! The lunch was really good too! Two weeks in Alaska and this was one of our favorite experiences!

My wife and I really enjoyed our cruise with Marine tours. It was enf of the season and we were scheduled to go on Sunday, but the contacted us Friday and said bad weather was moving in and asked if there was any way we could make it on Saturday as the Sunday cruise would likely be cancelled or shortened. We were actually boarding our flights and had to rearrange some things, but we made it on Saturday and we are glad we did. It ended up being the only sunny day of our vacation. The cruise, the staff and the views were incredible. The wildlife was plentiful and the glacier was amazing. They sent out two boats instead of overcrowding a single boat and the boats spotless and looked brand new. The food was good and we even enjoyed a special margarita (I don't want to spoil the surprise). I would highly recommend this tour, but remember no jumping allowed on the boat :)

I was a solo traveler on 9/25/24 and I went on the 4 hour wildlife tour. The 3 ladies working on the ship were very kind, very friendly, and had excellent customer service. They even had binoculars you can use for free. The nice lady named Carson showed me how to adjust them. The tour was very nice. Although I did not see puffins or orcas like I had hoped, I saw a group of cool sea lions, harbor seals, a couple of eagles and sea otters, and amazing and impressive mountain goats. The boat went to Kenai Fjords National Park and the scenery was amazing with the glaciers and the mountains. I also saw a rainbow which was very cool. The boat was very clean and plenty of free coffee and hot tea. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Seward, AK.

This cruise from Seward to Kenai Fjord was absolutely amazing. The crew and captain made our vacation magical. The narration along the cruise was spectacular. We loved the wildlife watching. The glacier alkali was out of this world, and the service on board was phenomenal. I find people in Alaska so genuine and warm. 100% recommended. Thank you so much, Marine Tours. You can tell when someone love their job!

Great views and saw Sea lions, sea otters, two whales, and of course the Glaciers. Our Captain was great and experienced. Good sandwiches provided. We would do it again for sure.

We really enjoyed the cruise! The Alaskan coastline is absolutely beautiful and we saw an incredible amount of wildlife, include humpback whales, orcas, otters, numerous birds and a few mountain goats! We also got very close to a glacier and enjoyed cocktails cooled by glacial ice. The staff was knowledgeable, friendly and efficient -- I highly recommend cruising with Major Marine!

We did the six hour boat trip, which I think was the perfect length of time. We got lucky with some beautiful sunny and calm conditions and were able to see lots of wildlife, including sea otters, Stellar sea lions, puffins, Muirs, Dall's porpoise, and even a humpback who hadn't migrated south yet. It was very cool to see the glacier as well. The boat was very comfortable and you are able to sit at seats around a table inside to stay warm whenever you want and then head out on the deck when wildlife is spotted. Definitely bundle up, it is always colder out on the water when the boat is moving and you have a breeze! Sandwich lunches leave a bit to be desired, but I did appreciated the brownies they gave us at the end :)

Wonderfully unexpected sunny day. The crew were great, the captain went out of her way to spot and find humpback whales, sea otters, Stellar sea lions, mountain goats, Dall’s porpoises. The katabatic winds off the glaciers were wild. Highly recommend.

The Major Marine tour was INCREDIBLE! The glacier was better than the ones seen on our cruise ship. We saw Humpback and Orca whales, puffins, sea lines and eagles. Laura was the best guide ever. You must take this tour if you go to Seward.

Fantastic tour company. Seas were rough but they knew in advance and warned everyone before departing to take motion sickness medication. Great info provided throughout the cruise, and they went out of their way to search for wildlife. The boat captain was incredible, getting the large boat around, between and up so-close-you-could-touch-it landscapes. Crew was very knowledgeable and friendly, you could tell they love what they do. Highly recommend this company and would book another trip with them if in the area again.

Best tour we’ve ever booked! Customer service was outstanding from the reservation process to the tour itself. Captain Justin and his crew were extremely focused on the customer experience which made for the perfect day! Highly recommend this tour company. They met us off the cruise ship and shuttled us to their office for check-in and even stored and transferred our luggage to the train depot for us. The boat was clean and appeared relatively new and well maintained. Narration was just the right amount throughout the 6 hour tour! Would definitely do this tour again!

We did the Northwestern Fjord Cruise and would highly recommend. Justin and Zach did a phenomenal job keeping us informed of wildlife sightings along the way. We saw Orcas, Stellar Sea Lions, Sea Otters, Puffins and more. We felt safe the entire ride and were very pleased with the overall experience. The boat never felt overcrowded and there was space inside for everyone if one wanted.
