Frommer's Review

This company pioneered first-class onboard dining and commentary by park rangers, who go on every trip -- a decisive advantage in my judgment. Their boats are slower than some of the competitors', so they don't make the long trip to Northwest Glacier; they either go to Aialik Glacier or tour Resurrection Bay around Seward. Instead of bringing sandwiches or stopping for a meal, they serve a buffet of salmon and prime rib onboard for $15 per person, $7 for children. The food is surprisingly good. I also like their table-seating arrangement with forward-facing seats. Your seat is assigned, so there's no need to rush aboard or try to stake out your spot.

Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
