We chose the three hour glacier trek through our cruise ship. We were wondering if it would be worth the money ($500 each) and if there would be enough to do on the glacier for 3 hours.

Outstanding -- Experience cannot be missed; the entire event (arrival, helicoptor ride, two-hor hike) on the Glacier was worth every penny!

The staff was very... more
