Booking FAQs

Carry your voucher in the format specified in your confirmation to redeem tickets on the day. Dress in warm, windproof layers, as glacier and on-water conditions are significantly colder than in town. Wear closed-toe shoes with strong grip, suitable for a 1.5-mile trail walk and movement on the boat deck. Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat, as parts of the cruise and hike have limited shade.

Do not touch or feed any wildlife, including whales or bears that may be seen at Steep Creek.

This experience includes a guaranteed whale sighting. Adult tickets apply to ages 13 and above. Child tickets apply to ages 2–12, while ages 1 and under may join free as lap children.
