Jessica was great. She held that last deluxe suite for us as we made our final decision and even sent us options for other trips if the initial one we were interested in didn't work out. Even though Jessica said how amazing the trip would be, it still exceeded our expectations. Wildlife viewing was incredible and we had several opportunities to take out kayaks and DIB (Zodiac type water craft) for even closer viewing of wildlife and glaciers. We had one day of rain then clear or partly cloudy skies the rest of the tour, which is very rare for Alaska so we got a bonus. They even woke us up after midnight one evening as you could see the northern lights! We saw humpback whales bubble feeding, a killer whale pod, sea lions, otters, bears, mountain goats/sheep (?), eagles and so much more.

This was our 3rd ‘Remarkable Journey’ trip to Baja, and this destination always exceeds our expectations. There are few wildlife experiences that can top a mother and baby gray whale seeking out a small panga [boat] to look at you eye-to-eye while being touched. On this photo expedition we opted for multiple pre-dawn excursions to capture amazing sunrises and the golden light on some of the most dramatic landscapes on the planet. Views of bow-riding dolphins, breaching humpback whales, sperm, blue and fin whales, combined with the dramatic desert landscape ensured that we will soon be planning our next Baja ‘Remarkable Journey’ trip.

The trip was great! Seeing the grey whales, sea lions, mobula rays, dolphins, and pelagic birds couldn’t have been more wonderful. And the sand dollars on Sand Dollar Beach were wonderful! We had several families on board and the crew did its best to see that everyone had a great time. Everything was planned perfectly. There was no confusion from baggage claim to customs to changing luggage from plane to boat. Everything was headache-free.

Wonderful scenery, memorable wildlife, jam-packed with activities, well organized, knowledgeable, and enjoyable staff. Taking the Big Picture cruise heightened our experience with photography opportunities and enthusiasm. Service and naturalist staff were wonderful—personable, knowledgeable, organized and approachable.

Hiking in bear country and climbing Mt. Riley were the most memorable parts of this expedition.

The most memorable part of the trip was the professionals who helped us understand all of the unique things we were seeing and who went out of their way to make the voyage as fun and enjoyable. The food, staterooms and numerous extras were all FIRST CLASS.

The most memorable parts of the expedition were the beauty of the land, the animals, the food (!), and the relationships with other travelers. The service was excellent on all counts. One of the most enjoyable trips of our lives. Cannot imagine more.

The most memorable moment was the moment we saw the wildlife—bear in action, orca, and a bunch of humpback whales.

A truly personal experience in Alaskan culture and history. Able to avoid crowds and big ports and really get a true taste of Alaskan life.

The ship stopped anytime there was something to see – whales, etc.

The trip turned out great. The most memorable parts of the trip were petting baby gray whales, seeing a whale shark up close, viewing numerous breaching humpbacks, thousands of dolphins, loads of other sea life, and hiking in numerous interesting arroyos and on beaches. There were several opportunities for snorkeling and kayaking outings, which was a lot of fun. The photography staff was particularly excellent, among the best of all the trips I've been on. All of the naturalists were great, which really enhanced the outings and wildlife spotting.

The most memorable parts were seeing many whales, hiking in the desert and on sand dunes, and an opportunity to see some new birds.

The best parts of ExpeditionTrips' assistance is the quick response to inquiries, the first-hand experience you can offer and the patience you have.

"Beautiful scenery and possibilities of seeing wonderful wildlife."

The staff of the Wilderness Explorer were excellent. We have a long list of food allergies and for a first time, we were not just offered food we could safely but eat but food that we really enjoyed. The guides are knowledgable and enjoy sharing their love of Alaska.

Expedition Specialist Abby worked tirelessly to find an itinerary that fit our needs.

We really appreciated the very personal and professional way that ExpeditionTrips answered all of our questions and the reassurance that yes we CAN go kayaking! All necessary travel documents were delivered promptly. Not a single hiccup!! Everything was perfect! Glaciers, whales and Glacier Bay Nat'l Park – the feeling of our group being alone in the vast wilderness of Alaska – no news, internet, cars, cities...just us! Activities for all interests and levels of ability. Because of the small number of passengers, it was easy to meet and get to know people from all over the world.

The whole crew was really wonderful. Friendly and very knowledgeable. Helpful in every way. The food was really wonderful (also the 'cocktail of the day'). Very nice to have a Park Ranger on board, too.

As ever, ExpeditionTrips help and advice on details was much appreciated for a guest arriving from Europe to join the trip. Don't change - your service was excellent! The trip was memorable for the wide range of items of interest. These included the curious Island of St Pierre - part of France and the excellent reconstructions of the Louisbberg Fortress and the Viking settlement at L'Anse aux Meadows with their well trained actors and careful attention to detail. As ever, ship staff were excellent guides and helpful in many ways.

Trip planning by ET was great and everything went smoothly. We had almost daily walks on shore or in skiffs to learn about the flora, fauna, weather, and geography of the area. Stunning landscapes. Beautiful bald eagles. Paint and wine night was especially fun and unexpected as was the engine room tour. Getting up close and personal with the land and wildlife was the most memorable!

Overall the trip was great. Everyone was very helpful. The bears were terrific.

The food was the best ever on a boat.

Since our ship was small enough to travel places where big ships can't go, we were often the only ship in sight. It felt like we were the only people in this wilderness, kayaking around islands, sailing a skiff inside a little bay filled with fishing bald eagles and a grizzly, looking for harbor seals on the ice and mountain goats on the cliffs. For two days, we seemed to be in the center of a congregation of more than a hundred humpbacks. They were busy feeding, sometimes very, very close to us as we stood on the deck of the ship. But what I will remember most is not necessarily the breaching, lunging and bubble netting, but the heavy but calm sound of their breathing all around me. I will take that sound with me forever.

It was amazing how every single one of the staff was eager to go out of their way to respond to our every want or need. Each one seemed to be extremely happy, and that contentment was reflected in their care for all of us. All of them, especially the expedition staff, knew an amazing amount about Alaska geology, plants and animals, and on this trip we were lucky enough to have a naturalist professor on board, who gave nightly presentations, went along on the skiff trips, and was always there to answer questions.

The most memorable part was watching the whales bubble feed. The service was great. All staff were enthusiastic, polite and knowledgeable. They were always willing to help.

Superb naturalist guides. Superb food. Fabulous glaciers and whales. Every single staff person was excellent. That's rare.

Our trip was excellent... We had high expectations, and they were met.

Going into the small towns of Kake and Petersburg was special. Our trip ended in Sitka, where we spent a day prior to flying home. We enjoyed our day there, and highly recommend visiting the rescue bear center and the rescue raptor center.

Exceptional! Love the size of the boat. Great side trips on zodiacs and kayaks. Food was wonderful! Massage therapist was great and appreciated. Third Mate, Chris Standish was very accomplished as a guide and personal attention.

Our trip was enjoyable. The ship Endeavour met our expectations and we found many interesting and friendly people who were our shipmates on this cruise. The guides of the Endeavour crew were very knowledgeable and friendly and concerned for our safety and nature experiences. The ship's food was quite good and appropriate portions were served by the attentive wait staff.

Amazing amount of whale sightings and other wildlife. 5-star level of service. More than met our expectations. All our pre-board questions were answered quickly and patiently.

The level of communication from ExpeditionTrips was just right. Our questions were answered quickly and efficiently! Our trip was wonderful. We really enjoyed the wildlife and opportunities to snorkel. The hiking was beautiful as well! The food and beverage service on the ship was fantastic!

Thank you all for making this such a wonderful experience for me. I would have happily spent the rest of my life aboard L'Austral. Jennifer and MaryBeth were excellent in providing the information I needed. I look forward to a long and happy association with ExpeditionTrips. The staff made extensive efforts to make certain their English-speaking participants had a good experience, were well cared for and were happy. I hope to book with them again as these small ships, excellent expedition and ship staff, unusual itineraries, all-inclusive offers, French ambience and the fair and conscientious way they treat customers are powerful incentives.

The itinerary was, as always, spectacular. This is the 15th time on small cruise ships in SE Alaska for me and the quality of service was by far the best. Wildlife appearance, which is, by nature, not controllable, was maximized by the flexibility of the itinerary. We saw a brown bear chomping grass at close range and many, many whales breaching and tail-slapping. The lighthouse visit was also very interesting. The "polar plunge" was a special occasion for the whole family.

Fabulous, the trip was great! Glaciers and wildlife, including bears and whales, were fascinating. The boat was near perfect in size—large enough to have equipment and small enough to get into places. The crew, staff and Glacier Bay Park naturalist were spectacular.

I loved Glacier Bay. All the naturalists aboard the Sea Lion were very knowledgeable and professional.

I had super high expectations, and it exceeded them all. Unbelievable. Just fabulous. It was so breathtakingly beautiful. Kayaking past icebergs was magical. It was great to kayak with my parents who, at 75, had never kayaked. They loved it. I found my new happy place.

Outstanding! Kayaking beside a glacier was the most memorable part of the expedition.

Absolutely fabulous! Getting to be up close with the grey whales (mothers and babies) was such a thrill. Since this was our 3rd trip with National Geographic, we knew we would be well-taken care of. We learned so much and the naturalists' knowledge of the whales and area is unsurpassable!!

Great trip! Jessica and all of the staff were very responsive to our questions. This is the third time that we have used Expeditions Trips. Every time was great.

It was exciting to see the gray whales close-up. The babies were one month old, 15 feet long and weighed 2,000 pounds. However, they were curious like all youngsters. We had 5 naturalists and all of them were well versed in their field. They shared their knowledge with everyone freely and in terms that we could understand. It exceeded my expectations. We saw the largest animals on earth, blue whales, at a fair distance, humpbacks at a medium distance and gray whales really close.

We met others on the boat and shared with them information about your company and told them we had never been disappointed. The trip was great. We took our daughter, son-in-law and grandsons. Whales and dolphins around the boat had to be the highlight. Also, our grandson announced each day "This is the best day of my life!" Truly a family trip to remember.

The staff was terrific. They made a great effort to accommodate all the passengers. The galley was especially busy with special requests and came through every time. Our group had a terrific time. The trip was just what we hoped for.

The Alaska trip was truly wonderful. We both were VERY happy. We saw tons of birds, including a family of ptarmigan that we watched for a long time as they walked through the brush making ptarmigan noises. Also lots of other critters, from big (grizzlies, moose) to small (starfish, sea anemones). We even saw a wolverine! We were bushwhacking in the “forest primeval,” and getting up close and personal with glaciers.

The Expedition Leaders are knowledgeable, patient and kind. They knew all the good spots to look for wildlife.

Fantastic again! The incredible beauty of SE Alaska, plus a wonderful,responsive, genuinely friendly crew made me sign up my whole family for next year.

Terrific trip! Everything exceeded our expectations, including comfort of the cabin, quality of the food, service from staff, congeniality of fellow passengers, and even the weather. Only wish it had been for two weeks.

I'm not sure it could have been better - probably the nicest, well-rounded vacation I've ever had - everything about it exceeded expectations. Being able to go up to the bridge was so informative and interesting. The crew and staff were EXCEPTIONAL!

The crew are now more friends/family/team mates with who we shared so many beautiful moments. They were the BEST!! The Wilderness Explorer not only took us safely to so many amazing places but, for a week, it became a real 'home' away from home. The cabin has everything one could wish for, it was comfortable, and clean. Eating became a celebration of food. One can truly see how much work/passion the galley staff puts onto it. We cannot think of any better experience than this.

I really appreciated the casual atmosphere on-board. The interaction with the crew made it feel more like I was on an excursion with a team as opposed to a tourist being 'processed' by an industry. Many thanks - this has really meant a lot to me.

I’ve sailed twice and it is the best way to see Alaska; a small group up close and personal with a lot of whales, seals, sea lions, sea otters, bears, glaciers, etc!

The staff on the National Geographic ship was exceptional. I prefer these cruises to the larger cruise ships. The level of service and naturalist guides was five stars, and the trip was over and above my expectations, and ExpeditionTrips assistance was excellent.

We were sent information in a timely manner and any questions we had were answered promptly by email. The guides shared their knowledge in a friendly way and you could sense their passion for the area. The other staff was so helpful and friendly too. I think the snorkeling in various areas was the most awesome. Experiencing the environment and wildlife through hiking, kayaking, burro riding, and skiffing were all great. Also enjoyed the historical tour/walking in Loreto.

Every day had truly memorable moments. Touching the gray whales was the highlight. The naturalists were knowledgable and eager to share their expertise in a broad range of subjects. On the whole, we found (as in the past) your expertise was invaluable. Loved the packet we received in the mail.

I hadn't been to Alaska for awhile and wanted to experience it in a more intimate way with guidance from naturalists. It was absolutely fantastic. I've been telling all my friends about the trip since getting back. ExpeditionTrips was very helpful in answering my questions in a timely fashion, and got my reservation paperwork done in record time. Enjoyed taking a skiff tour of an iceberg garden, seeing whales and otters, getting up close and personal to a glacier, and stalking a bear via kayak.

We were very well taken care of from the moment we were met at the hotel in Juneau until we were dropped at the airport for our return. The service was great and the naturalist guides were superb -- we really enjoyed them. The most memorable moments were coming across a pod of whales at sunset, watching Dawes glacier calve twice right in front of us, and the great people we met.

It exceeded expectations! Both the controllable (itinerary, staff, etc.) and the incidental (glacial calving, humpbacks, orcas, sea otters etc.) were better than we remembered. Kids' activity managers were superb! Mark and colleagues were incredibly inventive, responsive and patient with the children.

Every day on the National Geographic ship was memorable. With the zodiacs, we could approach wildlife within a few feet and observe their behavior unhurried. The friendly and knowledgeable naturalists taught us so much about the grizzlies, marine mammals and birds in Alaska. The services of the guides and the staff were excellent in every way.

It was an incredible week. The rooms were excellent, the food was healthy, tasty and plentiful. The crew and especially the guides and wellness coordinator were great. They bent over backwards to make our trip enjoyable. I loved the yoga on the back deck each morning. The various activities (hiking, kayaking, skiffing, etc) were available all the time and lots of fun. The Captain was extremely enthusiastic and fun and considerate. This is a trip for anyone-all age groups find things to enjoy. We had a few three generation families on our cruise and all enjoyed it.

Our trip to Alaska was simply unbelievable. People use terms like the trip of a lifetime casually, but this truly was such a trip. There simply aren’t enough superlatives to dole out to each of the crew. They were, quite simply, remarkable. I was particularly struck by how truly happy they seemed. This may sound silly, but in the hustle and bustle of Silicon Valley, I see lots of successful people, but it is rare to see people who are truly so happy. It gave me a lot to think about. I have been recommending the experience like crazy; I can’t think of anything possible that could have been done to make the trip more wonderful for us.

There are few places we go for vacation that the whole family wants to do a second time. This is one of those experiences.

The food on our un-cruise was amazing! The chefs and crew were so accomodating to my gluten free needs. We loved eating the healthy meals that tasted sooo good. Thanks to everyone on the WEX!

The fabulous ride via raft down the Kenai River to Skilak Lake was a beautiful introduction to the Kenai Peninsula. Stephanie created the most delicious meals - the best on the entire trip!

We were on the Wilderness Adventurer before, and loved it. We were prepared for cold and rain, and got sunny and warm. Everyone on the ship was fabulous. Crew and guests became like a group of old friends. Service was excellent. Most memorable parts were a long point-to-point kayak, the Chief Shakes rededication, and seeing bears from the kayak—the whole thing, actually.

We want to express our heart-felt appreciation to the Endeavour crew and staff for making our recent cruise the vacation of a lifetime. There were plenty of highlights: the wildlife viewing, the stunning scenery, the outings ashore and kayaking – the great weather, even! But what really made it truly special were the enthusiasm, genuine warmth, and caring attitude of the entire crew.

Food was amazing! Special kudos to the pastry chef for making me the best gluten-free cookies ever!

We all had the BEST time on our trip. We couldn't have made it better if we tried. All your efforts to make and keep us happy were very evident and like our last trip, we really felt that the Crew wanted us to be happy, comfortable, enthused, and safe. It was as if they were purposefully WANTING all of us to have our best experience ever. And we did. We would do it all over in a flash...and maybe we just will one of these days.

I really appreciated the casual atmosphere on-board. The interaction with the crew made it feel more like I was on an excersion with a team as opposed to a tourist being 'processed' by an industry. Many thanks - this has really meant a lot to me.

We had a fantastic trip and it definitely ranks high in our top 10. My most memorable part of the trip was when the gray whales came up to our zodiac boat and let me touch them. The staff, guides and crew could not have been any better. The length and itinerary of the trip were great, we could not have asked for better.

It was truly a once in a lifetime experience! Everyone should take this cruise! We saw a blue whale mother and baby. The baby swam right under the skiff!!! If you are thinking of this cruise, I have two words for you: DO IT!

Joy did a very good job understanding our preferences and concerns. She had worked with us on our Antarctica cruise. The ship, itinerary, and cabin we ended up choosing was exactly the right one - she did a great job helping to make sure our expectations were properly set.

All we can say is 'WOW!' We have taken other small-boat cruises, but never have we had an experience like you and your crew have provided. We have been to Hawaii multiple times, but until this week, we had barely scratched the surface. We have been to places where we have been served well, but not with the same friendliness and willingness. We loved every minute aboard the Safari Explorer, including all our "bridge" time and your whale enthusiasm. What a week! Thank you, thank you!

I commend you on your selection of staff - all were wonderful individuals and gave 100% of their talents to enhance our experience.

I cannot express enough words of praise for the marvelous crew of the Safari Explorer. Absolutely every crew member went out of their way to make our experience comfortable, fun, and enlightening. Thank you again for helping make our first trip to Hawaii a huge success. We will definitely travel with your company again and have already told many of our friends about your cruises.

Top notch planning and activities. Best vacation ever in a glorious setting. We visited all three lodges - your coordination and activities are the best.

I wanted to see Alaska and the combination of "luxury" and "adventure" sounded perfect. The staff, scenery and service were outstanding. They crew were all wonderful...the massage therapists, the bartender, the guides, the captain, everyone was not only willing, but anxious to be helpful.

This trip was to celebrate my 60th birthday and the entire two weeks was memorable: skiff tours to the front of South Sawyer Glacier in Tracy Arm, watching the bears at Margaret River, the captain's grilled oysters on the deck. Expedition Trips has been great to work with.  As I wrote, we booked through you for the Antarctic Cruise in January and would certainly book with you again in the future. 

I have to say this was truly the best vacation I have ever taken!

The overall experience of magnificent surroundings and excellent staff combined with an understated delivery to provide a memorable holiday. Well done.

The experience working with first Joy, then Jennifer, was fantastic. They excelled with their positive attitudes, along with creativity. They were very organized, booking everything quickly, and returned my calls immediately. I will definitely book future trips with you. The most memorable parts of the trip were the whales bubble netting and breaching!

My experience with ExpeditionTrips was excellent! I took this trip two years ago with another of my grandsons. I had a wonderful trip at that time. When the opportunity to take another trip with a grandson, I told him about visiting Alaska. He read the information about the trip and made the decision that it would be the trip for him. He told me yesterday that the whales were the best part of the trip.

The staff were wonderful with my grandson. They provided special meals for him and special events. They helped me with activities as well as his camera. The naturalist on the trip included him in discussions on the hikes by asking him questions he was able to answer.

The level of service was excellent. Naturalists were great and so was the crew.

The crew was very engaging. They made us feel like part of the family. And, the food was out of this world!

Thank you for the wonderful experience of cruising in the Sea of Cortés. The crew was so caring and professional. We loved every minute of it and saw the most spectacular wildlife. Hope to cruise with you again!

My quite long experience with ExpeditionTrips has always been efficient, warm and friendly - the nicest travel agency that I have ever encountered. My thought would be to ask you not to change anything! The trip was well up to expectations and I can't think of any significant improvements.

I really couldn't have asked for better service from ExpeditionTrips. Shelley picked out a great cabin for us on the ship. We loved our cabin and, though cozy, found it to be an airy and very comfortable space.

The trip exceeded our expectations; I would use you again. The boat was cozy and comfortable. The crew was great and went above and beyond to help us get to see all the wildlife up close - humpback whales, orcas, porpoises, bears, seals, sea lions...

The staff at ExpeditionTrips was exceptional. We have taken tours all over the world, and the ease of booking through ExpeditionTrips was effortless. It almost made me think we were forgetting something!! But, NO...everything was completely taken care for us.

I enjoy working with ExpeditionTrips and would definitely book any future trips with you. You are always ready to accommodate any wishes and answer any questions, no matter how minor. I can't think of how you might improve as you are already outstanding and I highly recommend you.

ExpeditionTrips provided us with timely information and final documents and the free video chronicle of the trip was a nice touch. The trip compared very favorable to our previous expeditions and the food was by far the best we have ever encountered on an expedition.

My trip was excellent and the level of service was fantastic, as usual. This was the fifth expedition that you have helped me plan and I will always book my holidays with you; you outshine any other travel company!!! The most memorable aspect of this trip, for me, was seeing the wildlife, whales, bears, birds and the beautiful landscapes!

The experience working with ExpeditionTrips was more than positive! We have wanted to go to Alaska for many years and this trip exceeded our expectations! There were many memorable parts - the views were always spectacular, the whales and other wildlife, the new friends we made, both guests and crew.

Working with ExpeditionTrips was a positive experience; we got all the help we wanted and needed! The trip was similar to our expectations, having previously planned our Galapagos trip with you and having such a great experience. The service onboard the Sea Lion was excellent!

It was EXACTLY the trip I wanted! Joy was really helpful as well as all of the ExpeditionTrips people I dealt with. She was always there to answer my questions and reassure me when I was worried we were spending too much money! Everything went very smoothly! The trip itself, and the staff onboard the Pacific Catalyst, met all of our expectations!

ExpeditionTrips made the trip very positive! I was admittedly naive about what to expect. We had never been on a cruise but felt the expedition model would be appropriate for us. All aspects of the trip were excellent! The staff onboard was accommodating and helpful. The crew was efficient and confident.

I am so glad that ExpeditionTrips showed me more than cruises. The whole experience was terrific. Two wins for them. You sent me to Polar Quest 4 years ago and the Arctic was wonderful with them. The trip was terrific and was exactly what I wanted.

The information we received from ExpeditionTrips was extremely helpful. We always felt that our needs were taken care of personally, even though we were part of a group of 14. Our guide, Eric Rock, was fabulous. He was a whirlwind of activity working to make everyone's experience special. He was so willing to share his knowledge and love for Alaska.

I would absolutely book with your company again. It was straightforward, fast and I particularly appreciated the DVD of the cruise (for which other people paid $50) courtesy of expeditiontrips.com.

We had a ball on our cruise up the Columbia River! It was full of great scenery, expert information and wonderful weather! We really enjoyed the staff's friendliness and the chef's staff out did themselves! Thanks, ExpeditionTrips for all your help!

We're back and it was a terrific trip. We saw many whales and calves in Magdalena Bay and had a terrific time. I am so impressed with the ship's management and professionalism - our Expedition Leader was especially outstanding.

The humpbacks and gray whales that travel to the Gulf of California and the Sea of Cortez were what drew us to this sailing. Our favorite memory was sitting in a Zodiac (Panga is the name used for wooden boats here unlike the Galapagos) and having a gray whale swim under us and splash us with his fluke.

Everything met or exceeded my expectations on our cruise to Alaska. The weather cooperated -- sunny and warm right up until the last full day on the ship. Several guests even went swimming in Lake Eva at the end of one of our hikes. A picnic lunch was served on the top deck the afternoon we were in Glacier Bay. Gwen and I even got sunburned!

Circumnavigation of Newfoundland is a trip for those who've done it all, but really haven't. A wild and rugged seacoast, magnificent vistas, sea people of wit and frontier spirit, and those seabirds... aaah those seabirds.

I will continue to book through ExpeditionTrips. The staff's responsiveness and timeliness is much appreciated. There are so many choices presented and the knowledge of the staff in tailoring a trip specifically to the client's interest is exceptional. I have been most appreciative for the staff's persistence in ensuring that all discounts have been applied.

I would book again with ExpeditionTrips.com! You made it easy. The organization & accommodation on the ship ensured the full enjoyment of the natural wonders of the Islands. The crew was excellent. I spent a lot of time on the Bridge & thoroughly enjoyed my time with the Captain & first & seco'd Officers.

Thank you, ExpeditionTrips, for finding us the perfect way to celebrate our 35th Anniversary with our family in Alaska!'

Ashton, at ExpeditionTrips.com, offered a lot of personal attention. I have recommended the company to others. Our trip was really great! We had a lot of luck with gray whales, and many, many dolphins in the Bahia Magdalena; quite a few humpbacks in the Gorda Banks and north in the Sea of Cortez -- breaching like mad!

We are very pleased with ExpeditionTrips and intend to book any future cruises with you. We find that you are honest, frank, and reliable. The trip met our expectations. We saw great schools of dolphins and interesting geology.  Walking on the different islands with their different geology and wildlife was one of our favorite aspects of the trip.

I would book future trips with ExpeditionTrips. I have worked with Joy before, and always appreciate her help and advice. For the most part the personnel exceeded my expectations. There were some deficiencies with the wait staff, but that was minor. The naturalists and guides were phenomenal.

Our experience working with ExpeditionTrips was very helpful for this trip. Our Program Manager's detailed knowledge of the different small boat cruises was a very big help. She was happy to spend time answering our long list of questions. We narrowed it down to two cruise lines. In the end, it couldn't have been a better fit for what we were looking for.

Working with ExpeditionTrips was a very positive experience. I would definitely book future trips with you.  All emails were answered immediately and you went above and beyond when we missed our flight and helped us get a hotel room in Seattle. Thanks so much!

My experience with ExpeditionTrips was very positive. You called me by telephone when I inquired about the trip and all documents were sent as promised. You quickly fixed an issue with the bed arrangement too, I appreciate that very much. The trip met all of our expectations. We really wanted to see remote Alaska and this was the best way we could find. The crew was absolutely excellent. I really liked the way the crew and staff remembered and called us by our names - that really made us feel welcome. Also, we really were treated as if we were at home.
