We Take a Wildlife and Glacier Tour in Valdez, Alaska!

- Опубліковано 1 лип 2024
- We knew we wanted to take at least one sightseeing cruise while in Alaska, and maybe just one since they're all so expensive. In Valdez the weather was good and we spoke to a company about how their tours run and they had a military discount so it sounded like the optimal combination. We signed up for the LuLu Belle, a supposed 7 hour cruise which often takes 8-9 hours depending on if there's a lot of interesting things that may come up. At $176 before the discount it sounded good! Join us as we take our first and maybe only cruise in Alaska! We don't think any cruise will beat this one.

Thank You Jay & Tina for taking us along with you. That was cool watching that Glacier break apart like that.
That glacier footage was perfect
Great video with lots of great beautiful views, a whale, and lots of sea loins, so let's keep on hiking 😊
That was a wonderful cruise, thanks for sharing it with us.
Fantastic video. Thank you for sharing.
Beautiful! I’ve done the 26 glacier cruise out of Whittier! I was fortunate to spend the summer of 2004 as deckhand on a 78 passenger cruise ship, we sailed from Whittier to Cordova every week for the summer!!!
Very nice! Free cruising all over the place. I considered working in IT on a cruise ship but never looked too hard.
It's one of the best videos of Alaska glaciers I've seen!!! Beautiful videography and scenery!! Did he mention how much glacier had receded since 1979 I think it was.
According to geologist, Columbia Glacier is one of the fastest retreating glaciers in the world , over 1/3 mile every year since 1982 presenting a loss of over 9 miles.
Awesome video thanks for sharing it we going in 3year love the glacier and wildlife
It's been pretty nice! If you're into fishing at all this is a fisherman's paradise. Just having the chance to catch red salmon and eat them fresh is amazing. I think I've ruined salmon eating in the lower 48 from now on.
Disconcerting to learn glacier is melting so fast.
Nice.
You got to see a lot of side trip Glacier fronts that I did not see which were very beautiful. I kayaked from Valdez to Whittier and as a side trip we paddled into Columbia Glacier for which I was shocked at how much receding had taken place. You got some nice time with the sea lions which is nice, we did not see that, and that was probably good as they can be a bit silly and not shy and you don’t want to go for a cold swim with a sea lion. I had one spit water at me once but fortunately he did not slam the kayak. You had a nice trip there, good choice.
I guess the stellars sea lions are an endangered species so are normally as common. We learned that they were very rare in the area but in recent years have been settling in and biologists are keeping an eye on them.
Still making awesome videos I had to catch up on some lol
