Trip of a lifetime

From check in to getting the glacier everything was smooth. Our bus driver gave us lots of information about Alaska and told lots of jokes. It was great! And the bud was brand new and super clean!

An efficient and speedy way to see the glacier

Published on Sep, 2024

The driver was great with a sense of humour which was needed as the day was wet and cold. When we got to the glacia the rain stopped and the clouds seem to be lighter. Some good advantage points to view the glacier and take photos. The visitors centre was not to be missed full of info. For me the Glacier Express was a good way to get to the site and the driver was excellent. Thank you

pretty view
