Enjoy an exclusive whale-watching adventure like no other. Away from the crowds and packed boats, your four-hour excursion on a five-star luxury yacht is piloted by a U.S. Coast Guard Certified Master Captain with an onboard marine naturalist who narrates and highlights this true Alaska experience. Limited to just eight guests, this 25-minute scenic drive travels through Juneau to Auke Bay. Here, you'll board your exquisitely appointed vessel and set off to explore the Inside Passage in search of incredible humpback whales. In addition, keep your eye out for other world-class wildlife like orca, bald eagles, harbor seals, stellar sea lions and even the occasional brown or black bear. A beautifully prepared snack served with wine and other beverages enhances the day. Bring your camera to capture the incredible and peaceful ambience of Alaska. If whales are sighted, your captain will maneuver the boat to allow for exceptional viewing and photo opportunities. Return to port at the conclusion of this fantastic day.
