Great experiences with a fabulous crew! And delicious food on board as a bonus. Want to come back!

Offering high quality 3 - 6 day cruises with a maximum of 12 guests on the historic Discovery in beautiful Prince William Sound, Alaska (just south of the largest Alaskan city, Anchorage). We do offer a handful of trips that incorporate Denali National Park as well. Prince William Sound encompasses 3,800 miles of coastline to explore via kayak and foot. The Sound is home to the densest concentration of tidewater glaciers in the world, containing 50 glaciers and 17 tidewater glaciers (touching the ocean), known for dramatically calving huge ice chunks into the sea. Enjoy spectacular views from sea level up to 13,000 ft mountain peaks. More than 220 species of birds (and around 200,000 seabirds summer in the Sound), along with 30 species of land mammals, and at least a dozen marine mammal species make this area quite special. Resident marine mammals include humpback, sei, fin, minke, killer whales, and dall's porpoise as well as Steller sea lions, harbor seals, and sea otters. In western Prince William Sound, black bears may be seen on narrow beaches and are most often seen fishing when the salmon are spawning.

A great experience with a customer service focused company! We selected Discovery Voyages (Dean, Meg, Tori, and Jocelyn) for a once in a lifetime adventure in Alaska. We selected them primarily based on previous reviews of their approach to the Prince William Sound sights, wildlife, sealife, and conservation. We could not be happier with the outcome. The entire crew was knowledgeable, friendly, helpful, and focused on delivering the best experience possible for each of the passengers. Using their extensive knowledge of the Sound, weather, and natural wildlife, avian, and sea life migrations, the captain and his crew put us in the best positions possible to get a close-up view of all that Alaska has to offer. From Glaciers, Waterfalls, stunning Mountain and Sound views; to Sea Otters, Sea Lions, Seals, and Dall's Porpoises; to Bears; and to Eagles, Puffins, and all of the Fauna and Flora of the Sound Coastline, as well as the countless other experiences along the way, we had a front row seat to it all. As we travelled and while we stopped, the crew shared their knowledge of the area, and its history, willingly and their love for what they do came through with each story related. The food was prepared fresh daily and provided a variety of tastes from the Sound at each meal. It was excellent. We would absolutely recommend Discovery Voyages for a first-class experience, delivered by people who care deeply about what they do and the guests they have on board.

My experience with Discovery Voyages was blissful and joyous, peaceful and profound, extraordinary and down-to-Earth in the most unique way. One morning I woke to a raging waterfall and a cavorting black bear. Another morning, I woke in a quiet evergreen cove, a receding, dripping glacier not far in the distance. Dean is an amazing man. He could be a friend. Megan is multi-talented and generous and kind. Julia and Jocelyn were terrific. We ate so well, always felt safe and cared-for, and wanted for nothing. I have no idea what other Alaskan boats are like, but I'd come back to the Discovery in a heartbeat.

We were on the same boat and trip 31 yr ago!! It has only gotten better. Dean is a great captain and makes sure everyone gets to see everything! Glaciers calving, bears, puffins, waterfalls, jellyfish & salmon all included! Megan is best chef ever!! Every meal is a masterpiece, a true gourmet experience!

The captain is able to get this small ship in areas larger ones can't get to. Gorgeous scenery, great hikes and kayaking and wonderful meals!
