Summer fun
Overall, an amazing experience! Food was unforgettable and tasty. Scenery was unmatched. Rooms were small but you spend much more time upstairs enjoying the incredible views.

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.

The difference between five and four, for me, is the changes made by having cruise ships in PWS.

The captains and crew are top notch, with vast experience and polished professionalism. Rooms were comfortable, views stunning. We enjoyed kayaking, hiking, stories, and plentiful wildlife. We particularly enjoyed the time and patience that was given at the glaciers to observe how they move and change. We could have done without the stay at the Historic Anchorage Hotel. It wasn’t worth the expense to us on an already expensive trip. (Consider offering this as a courtesy instead.) The only negative I can give was the food. While every fish based dish was fresh and dynamic, breakfasts fell far short of expectations. “Cloud eggs” and Hawaiian roll casserole were not appealing. The lime soup we had was just as stomach turning as it sounds, making for a very car sick ride back to anchorage. We understood space and time limits offering so we took what we were given, of course, but with how amazing our salmon and cod dishes were, we wished we had brought snacks to make up for shortcomings of the other meals. Every vegetable dish was brimming.with freshness and flavor… no easy task on a ship!! We LOVED the glacier ice cocktail/mock tails. Sail with Discovery Voyages. You will never regret the time you spend with these dynamic and experienced people. They love what they do and their passion for their business shines.

Great Boat and Crew. Loved the cruise a joyful week. The food was outstanding!! Would give 5 stars, but the expert nature/photographer Hugh, who they speak highly of, was unable to go on the trip last minute do to catching Covid. Disappointing to say the least, should have been credited back something for this loss to all participants.
