skrufy Posted January 11, 2018 #1 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Have read reviews on trip advisor and they all said this is an awesome excursion. Any Info from Alaska cruise veterans would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budget Queen Posted January 11, 2018 #2 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Yes, this gets rave reviews. I have done this. But, my preferences is flying, not just a transit for food. :) (I have my priority for those too). So, for me, it's costly, and too short for what I prefer. So, I don't repeat this particular tour like I would others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oaktreerb Posted January 12, 2018 #3 Share Posted January 12, 2018 We enjoyed it. We got to fly over glaciers, land and take off twice on water, see a bear being a bear, take a short walk with a guide and have a salmon lunch. I would have enjoyed it even without the lunch. The narration was taped and should have been clearer. One person will be able to sit up front with the pilot. Now when we watch the Juneau harbor webcam in summer we can see “our plane” taking off for Taku Glacier Lodge or a similar itinerary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Crew News Posted January 12, 2018 #4 Share Posted January 12, 2018 This excursion ranks as one of my faves. The king salmon was caught the day before and the ice for our tea came from the nearby glacier. They do offer chicken for those who don't eat salmon. Keep an eye out for the bears who like to clean the grill while you are dining.

rkacruiser Posted February 1, 2018 #9 Share Posted February 1, 2018 I experienced this excursion July, 2017 and am very glad that I did decide to book it. Fully met my expectations--and more! Very pleasant and helpful staff members, a delicious lunch, but the highlight of the tour was the visit by the bear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
