The opportunities for adventure in Alaska are endless, so visitors on tight schedules might have difficulty fitting in everything.

"Magical" is the perfect description of this tour. Kayaking to the glacier was surreal. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who is physically capable.
& the water is very cold; I recommend wearing quick drying/wool layers and a waterproof coat and waterproof boots. I did get wet on both portions of the tour, but wasn't cold because I was wearing quick drying pants and wool base layers/socks.

Kayaking on the lake with the glacier view just in front of us, vas amazing. Great pictures spots near icebergs.
The train wasn’t as expected, too slow and too long
Awesome adventure even for a novice!

Great guides, kept us safe, great equipment. Lunch was delicious! Kust lovely! Train ride was beautiful - bring your camera! Recommend to make sure you tell conductor you’re getting off early if you’re eating breakfast on train.
Incredible, and a caution for solo travelers.

Loved this experience! The team was great and the glacier was incredible.
The one drawback is that they don't have any solo kayaks for participants, so they made people pair up. My partner was great, but I could see where it might not be. So, a caution for individuals or odd-numbered parties.
Worth every penny
