JP-Cruise Posted May 17, 2017 #1 Share Posted May 17, 2017 So as I mentioned on previous boards. I am a single cruiser and originally wanted to book with FISHES, they said I needed to wait for others book since they cannot take a single reservation. Last week I booked with Glacier wind charters, got the last spot. But I just got an email from FISHES that they just booked 3 other people and there is now room for me. Should I cancel glacier Wind and go with FISHES?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisingthesuitelife Posted May 17, 2017 #2 Share Posted May 17, 2017 I think you will come across equal numbers of great reviews for both companies. Personally, as I have been with Glacier Wind before, I am going to recommend them. I would just say you need to look at what is offered by both companies and how it works for you but from what I have read, I don't think you will be disappointed whichever you choose.

Thank you for you advice. I appreciate it. I think the reason I'm leaning toward glacier wind is because their tour is half an hour longer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JP-Cruise Posted May 17, 2017 Author #5 Share Posted May 17, 2017 That is a positive, any additional time on the water would be a bonus for me! Exactly! Glad you agree with me there. But one minor thing is it looks like people see more bears with FISHES since they cruise along chigacof island where the bears are. Or does glacier wind cruise by there as well? It's not a huge deal for me to see bears on the beaches cruising by the island though. After all I'm there for the whales. On one review for glacier wind, someone wrote they saw puffins :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On one review for glacier wind, someone wrote they saw puffins :D Floyd (FISHES) and Shawn (Glacier Wind) do talk to each other while they are on the water as I have heard their conversations before. The captains exchange information on what they are seeing. Remember, wildlife is constantly moving and Floyd may see something and tell Shawn but by the time Shawn gets there it might have moved and vice versa. If you are really concerned about the bears drop Teresa/Shawn an e-mail and ask about the bears. When we go with Floyd and Shawn we go with no expectations and look forward to the journey whatever might present itself --- each trip has been different and that is the beauty of our experiences.
