Cruise Tracy Arm Fjord, Alaska Port Reviews

I can't even begin to describe how utterly gorgeous it is. I honestly wasnt expecting much. But as I opened my curtains as the tour began my jaw dropped. Even saw a bear!

Very cool! Note that most people will stand in front waiting for pictures. If you go to the back you can sit in chairs with blankets and enjoy the ride up. We got breakfast from the buffet and took out back. The captain will swing the boat around when leaving and you will have an unobstructed private view!

This was one of the most beautiful places that we have ever seen. I’ve always Been told that some of God’s most amazing Work was created in Alaska after going through here I believe it

Get up early to see the whole trip! It's absolutely breathtaking. We had breakfast at a window seat and went outside to find a spot. We tried several locations but found out, go high and go to the back of the ship for the best views. There was beauty at every turn and I promise you, pictures do NOT do this justice.

The sights here are breathtaking. It is VERY cold so you should bring many layers for this day. Our ship saw whales while sailing out of the fjord ( we went in 15 minutes before the whales showed up😢). The sawyer glacier is magnificent it is receding fast so get here while you can. This was a great addition to our cruise and I think that the incredibly early wake up is totally worth it.

Any opportunity to see the glaciers from the water is something not to be missed during your cruise. Most lines have a naturalist on board for this part of the trip. You will learn how massive and far reaching the ice fields are. You will hear the resounding "rifle shot" of the glacier calving, the roar of the ice crashing to the water and, sometimes, ride the swell created by the massive chunk of ice.

Awsome view of fjord the captain got as close as he could. I never saw anything so beautiful in my like. The sky was clear and took many pictures of glacier. I never saw one before it was amazing

Did the fjord and glacier excursion. An absolute must! Saw humpback whales, black bear, many bird species, seals, grey whale, aquamarine waters, deep blue glaciers.

Due to the time difference and the fact we were going to be there so early I actually planned on sleeping through it...... that would have been a BIG mistake Captain made an announcement and I got up and checked it out. Once I opened our curtains my mouth dropped. One of the highlights of the trip! Gorgeous!!!!

Amazing scenery. Take the small boat option if offered by your ship. We could not get very close to South Sawyer Glacier due to ice, but did get close to North Sawyer Glacier.
