Icy Strait Cruise Reviews

Did the gondalas to the awesome views and a hike with an awesome guide that protected us from bears along the way.Got some great beers and did the canning tour. ...

Small port that is easily walkable. Excursions can be booked directly with local tour operators. ...

Our favorite port. We had a sample of crab legs and they were delicious. They have little fire pits everywhere to sit around and relax. You can walk the beach and find starfish.

This is a tourist trap, plain and simple. There is a nice view from the gondola. ...

Just shopping. ...

Tour guide escorted us on 5 min. walk to picnic tables set up under a large canopy. Tribal dance - lady read from small book and actors pantomimed story. Seafood feast - reheated buffet with large round drink serving tray to be used as plates. After performance and “feast” the tour guide had disappeared and we had to find our own way back to the ship. SAD! ...
