Seward (Anchorage), Alaska Port Reviews

a small sea town....it was ok to hang out for a day

Good.

I didn't really get to see this port however the debarkation scenic train to Anchorage was wonderful and worth it if you have a flight leaving after 5 PM.

Great bus ride to Anchorage because of the driver

The aquarium was awesome. Very good use of time, very interesting. Spent 2+ hrs there.

We did the Kenai Fjords excursion afterwards. Totally awesome, but would STRONGLY encourage EVERYONE to use motion sickness aids.

Wow, are hotel prices high in Anchorage! We paid $321 for a single night at the Fairfield Inn, the cheapest of the options we saw. I think the same cruise from Victoria to Seward would be less expensive, if you could get an afternoon flight on disembarkation day and not have to stay over.

We did a LONG, third-party (ACT) excursion to visit Seward and Anchorage due to our late flight. Our driver/guide was EXCELLENT! I called him "Rainman" because of his wealth of knowledge...

The town has a free shuttle to get around, which is very nice. We visited the Alaska Sealife Center, which was fun. Again we really enjoyed the train ride down from Anchorage, and would highly recommend that when transferring to/from. We were able to check our luggage all the way through, which was awesome.

There is nothing there and transportation back to Anchorage is scarce
