  1. Helicopter and dog sledding tour on Godwin Glacier, Seward1

    1. Helicopter and dog sledding tour on Godwin Glacier

    4.9· 168 reviews· 1.5 hours

    Two to three hours — fly to Godwin Glacier for a dog sled ride, interact with Alaskan huskies, and learn about dog mushing directly from local mushers.

    This experience perfectly matches the description. The helicopter ride is impressive, with three seats available for passengers alongside the pilot. Upon landing on the stunning glacier, dog sledding is arranged, allowing for a quick excursion around the ice. The dogs seem thrilled to embark on the journey, and afterward, you can interact with charming, albeit mischievous, puppies. Finally, you return to the starting point via helicopter.Tracy C

    4.9· 147 reviews· 7 hours

    Up to six hours in a small group — scenic transfer from Seward to Anchorage with wildlife tours at the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center and Portage Valley stops.

    An amazing opportunity to discover Alaska. The guide was entertaining and genuinely interested in our preferences.Renee_N
  3. Half-day wildlife cruise in Resurrection Bay from Seward, Seward3

    3. Half-day wildlife cruise in Resurrection Bay from Seward

    4.7· 99 reviews· 4.5 hours

    Four hours on a captain-narrated tour — see glaciers, cliffs, seabirds, and marine wildlife in Resurrection Bay.

    I opted for the 4-hour Resurrection Bay tour, and it exceeded my expectations for the price. The duration was ideal, and I was treated to stunning views along with an abundance of wildlife: whales, otters, sea lions, seals, jellyfish, dolphins, bald eagles, and more that I've forgotten. The boat was clean and roomy. A special thanks to the incredibly friendly staff—Karlee, Logan, and Ryo—who enhanced the experience. Captain Emma was outstanding, expertly handling the boat and sharing her knowledge about the area and its wildlife. This tour should definitely be on your must-do list when visiting the area.michelerS8026FT
  4. Seward to Anchorage private tour with cruise transfer, Seward4

    4. Seward to Anchorage private tour with cruise transfer

    4.7· 22 reviews· 8 hours

    Full-day transfer and tour — scenic Seward Highway, Turnagain Arm, Anchorage with a local guide, plus optional activities along the way.

    This tour is an excellent choice for those with a late flight from Anchorage after a cruise. Our fantastic guide Mike picked us up at the Seward cruise terminal, and we enjoyed around 9 hours exploring beautiful sights and learning about Alaska. While we had the option to choose what we wanted to see, we trusted Mike's judgment. In addition to the aquarium in Seward and an impressive wildlife center, he frequently stopped to share interesting sights like a lake teeming with various bird species, a glacial riverbed offering breathtaking views, and even a moose and black bear he spotted. We had lunch at the top of Alyeska ski resort, accessed via their tram, which provided stunning views. Mike's passion for Alaska was clear through the engaging stories he shared. After a memorable day filled with experiences we wouldn't have discovered on our own, he dropped us off at the Anchorage airport. I highly recommend this tour.Gene_D
