Amazing - Our captain was very knowledgeable and explained everything we were seeing. She gave everyone the best chance to see the scenery and all the animals. At the end of the day we were lucky enough to get to see orcas and she truly went above and beyond to allow everyone to enjoy watching them. The entire trip was amazing and worth every penny spent for sure.

What an experience!!!! - This tour exceeded our expectations for sure. We were able to see sea lions, otters and orcas. Our captain did a great job pointing out all the landmarks and the sea life. The glacier was amazing and we even got to hold some ice from the glacier itself! Would definitely recommend this tour to everyone!

Great day cruise in Kenai Fjords - We loved our time on the Callisto Voyager visiting multiple glaciers and seeing lots of wildlife (sea otters, stellar sea lions, harbor seals and even a humpback whale). Highly recommended.

Amazing Experience - The best experience imaginable. The boat ride was very calm which gave us the opportunity to see the glacier (we were told if waves were too rough they couldn’t go this far). Was given a chicken burrito with chips and salsa as our meal with a fresh cookie at the end of the day. During the trip we got to see whales, seals, dall sheep, puffins, sea otters and of course the glacier! Definitely recommend if you want to see a glacier or animals in their natural habitat.

Overpriced and Too Long - Overpriced. Very long excursion that was underwhelming. I recommend saving your money, renting a car and driving around the kenai peninsula. Everyone seemed bored after the first half of the trip.

Overpriced, Nice Views, Too Long - Very overpriced. The length of the cruise was too long and boring. The drive to kenai national park entrance is equally as impressive and a lot less expensive. We saw a humpback whale, sea lions, otters, bald eagles. Overall, underwhelmed by the experience. I recommend saving your money, renting a car and driving around the kenai peninsula.
