Nature-Glacier Nature-Lake

Take a load off from your active adventures for a day and let the beauty come to you (well, on a boat, that is). You may have seen whales in real time before, but the experience was likely separated by a thick pane of glass at an aquarium. The Major Marine ship tours will get you up close with the goliaths of the Kenai Fjords-- orcas, humpbacks, sea lions, puffins, and other marine mammals. The tour departs from Seward, AK (information on getting to Seward can be found in the next paragraph) and will continue for 6 hours with a complimentary lunch in the middle. The drive from Anchorage to Seward is just under 2.5 hours, but there is nothing better than feeling comfortable and cushioned after days of adventure. If you opt for the more scenic route to Seward for the tour, you can hop on the Alaska Railroad Coastal Classic train for a narrated train ride fully equipped with restrooms and a full bar to make the final chapter of your trip luxurious and ultra-magical. To opt for this transportation option to your cruise you can call (907) 224-8030 to reserve your train tickets. Train tickets are $197/person for a round-trip.
