I was only notified 24 hours before and said not enough people which is incorrect. we booked afternoon and evening this does not run and when we booked it offered us boat clearly this does not run. We booked day trip and evening with 3 course dinner. There is no boat as it is frozen this should not be advertised as such.”

This was our last excursion of a 9 night Alaska cruise and it was a highlight of our trip. The employees were awesome and although no one can control what wildlife you see on your trip they really tried to ensure we got to see as much as possible. We got to see so much during our tour. Humpbacks, an Orca pod, sea lions, seals, an otter, and birds were all featured during our trip. Absolutely don’t hesitate to book a tour with Eagle Wing.”
