Wouldn't book an Alaskan cruise without Glacier Bay in the itinerary. Breathtaking! To hear and witness calving is thunderous and spectacular, a lifetime experience!

There was a mini ice age and the glacier extended 65 miles further in 1750 that it does today.

True experience to nature and you can hear the serenity of the area. It's very soothing to just sit and enjoy the surrounding. This glacier doesn't have the roaring thunderous expulsion of ice but rather a calm atmosphere

One of the most beautiful places on earth. The sun shone - it went quiet on the ship like when you’re in a religious place and there in front of you were these huge glaciers and mountains - nature at its finest Wow !
