What a beautiful fjord this is, lots of snow on the mountains - be sure to dress warmly - hat scarf coat and I had gloves... We saw bald eagles, lots of mountain goats, bear, seals and icebergs - more icebergs. You could take a smaller boat onto the fjord for about $185.00 we opted to stay on the Carnival... More

We woke up at 5:00 AM on the day our cruise travelled through the Tracy Arm Fjord to make sure we didn't miss anything. Never thought I would wake up at 5:00 AM on vacation, but it was well worth it! The scenery was breathtaking! We were so fortunate to cruise through the Fjord on a beautiful sunny day and... More

Not much you couldn't like about this. It would be one of the most breath.taking experiences tha we have ever had. The snow capped mountains and the numerous glaciers extend for hours as you are cruising. See to believe.

We got within a half mile of the face. I stood on the cold and rainy bow through the whole Fjord and loved it.

Our cruise ship went through these fjords very early in the morning. At 6:00 a.m. the walls of the Fjord were obscured by thick fog and low hanging clouds. Even with the limited visibility, it was clear that we were entering somewhere spectacular. There were hundreds of folks on the decks taking pictures and enjoying the view, yet you could... More

Of course you will be travelling by boat, but within deep canyon walls and there is near total silence except for the sounds you and your boat make. Lots of ribbon waterfalls cascade down to the water you are sailing on. At the end of the Fjord you come to a huge wall of greenish blue glacier face - Sawyer... More
