Great day on the water, great company, great staff, great boats, and great wildlife!

Published on Sep, 2024

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 :)

Clean boat, nice viewing of Fjords National Park, cool seals, mountain goats and friendly female staff 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.

You can tell when someone love what they do, that's Marine Tours.

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 Experience.

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.

Great way to see the Alaskan coast!

Published on Sep, 2024

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!
