Seward Kenai Fjords catamaran cruise with wildlife and tidewater glacier stop, deli lunch, and binoculars for whale watching.

“Our recent 6-hour cruise to Kenai Fjord was nothing short of spectacular. From the breathtaking views of towering glaciers to the diverse wildlife, every moment was awe-inspiring. We were lucky enough to spot whales, sea otters, puffins, and even a few seals! The staff onboard were knowledgeable and shared fascinating insights about the fjord's history and ecosystem. The cruise was well-paced, allowing us plenty of time to enjoy the scenery and take photos. This was truly one of the best experiences we’ve ever had, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to connect with the raw beauty of nature.Read more”

Snowmobile into Kenai Fjords from Seward for a winter ride to Exit Glacier, with insulated gear, sanitized helmet, and warm drinks.

“Amazing experience! There is no way to get into Kenai Fjords National Park in the winter without a snowmachine or cross-country skis, so this is the perfect way to experience the winter wonderland of the park as a visitor. Brandon was great and taught us all how to use the snowmachine. He took us to Exit Glacier overlook and a few other fun trails into the trees and fresh powder. My only wish is that I could have done this all day. Recommend this booking!”

“Had an excellent 5 day tour of Alaska with our guide Andrew! He was extremely knowledgeable and very friendly. He treated everyone very nicely and our 11 and 7 year old grandkids loved him and how he interacted with them. Andrew was very accommodating to our requests and always had good suggestions of activities and places to visit or eat. Andrew was great at spotting game during our Denali bus trip. I highly recommend BrushBuck tours and especially Andrew as a guide. Will definitely consider them for an Africa trip when the girls are older.”
