- Here is the Glacier & Wildlife Cruise of Kenai Fjord National Park with Major Marine Tours from Seward. We also visit Portage Glacier along with Whittier and hike to the Portage Pass Summit. Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center is another highlight in this area. Exit Glacier, Byron Glacier are some other interesting hikes. Make sure to have Salmon at a famous seafood restaurant in Seward.

When I was in the 10th grade, I was staying with my great-aunt and uncle (my grandmother’s sister and her husband) and they ended up taking a trip to the Kenai Peninsula for 2 weeks along with their eldest son, and they decided to let me tag along. We stayed in Seward for a couple of days, and we went to see these exact glaciers. The one in the water, we got to see a giant piece fall off of it, and then the boat people fished a couple of chunks of the glacier with a net and we used a giant piece of 10k+ year old ice to keep our cooler cold for the next couple of days 😄 and then we also went to some other places like Homer, Alaska, and a couple more that I can’t remember right at this moment (as this was 7 or 8 years ago!) and we went during the spring time, so the Sun didn’t go down until 10-11pm at night! And was up again by 3 or 4 in the morning! I got to see whales, seals, bears, otters, and a bunch of other stuff that we don’t have where I’m from (I am from Southeast Colorado, but have lived all over the state of Colorado) and I will always remember how exciting it was to get to see all of that stuff, I hope to go back there again some day!

Loved the content. Great video guys. Noted some areas to visit from watching your video. Actually planning a trip to Alaska and your trip is helpful. Thanks!
I love your video! My family lived in Anchorage in 1962 (I was 11) and we drove from Anchorage to Seward several times to fish for coho salmon. Seward has obviously changed a lot since then and I would like to travel there with my wife sometime.
Thank You ! Hope you get to travel soon 😊
Thank you. We're going in August and this was very helpful.

Thanks for the video. Great content and very practical information. We are going up in March but just for 2 days.. not much time to do any of these things. It's for a job fair though, so perhaps we will end up with all the time in the world later!
Thanks for your kind words ! Enjoy your stay in March .. Hopefully you can enjoy all these things in warm summer months sometime :)
Hi Sia, I usually take ur itinerary before our trips. It helps us a lot !! Quick question about Alaska trip.. Since we are on h1b visa , do we need stamped USA visa to visit Fairbanks or any of the places from ur playlist ?
Hey, You videos are so clear and very helpful. All four parts of Alaska trip is amazingly planned. I was planning trip to Alaska and found your channel. Great work! Can you by any chance share your itinerary for Alaska trip?
Thank You ! We went in July for a week and everything we did is listed in the 4 videos. We started from Denali, then spent two days in Anchorage and at last made a two day trip to Seward. I would suggest to keep it flexible as somedays it might be raining so you don’t want to do super important stuff on those days.
@@siadhillon Great will follow the list mentioned in your all 4 videos! Thank you so much for your guidance 😃
Hello! I am so glad that I found your channel. I love the vlogs. Did you fly round trip to Anchorage? If you had to do it over would you do an open jaw flight and land in Fairbanks?
Thanks a lot for all the kind words ! I am pretty satisfied with the road trip we did from Anchorage to Fairbanks via Denali N.P.
Very great video! Thanks for sharing. I wonder what month did you go?
Happy you enjoyed the video! We went in July 😊
Hi Sia - we are headed to Kenai fjords in September- I think you had visited in July - How cold was it near the glacier ?- excellent video quality btw
THanks ! It was not that cold. A light jacket and sweater will do the job :)
If you don’t mind can u pls share which camera u used for this vlog ? The clarity is amazin
Sure! It is Dji Osmo pocket..
Wow. Thanks 😊. Waiting for ur next travel vlogs 🧳
@@BrienneOfTarth5 yes lots of travel vlogs from Hawaii, west coast and Vegas coming in next few weeks 😊
How many days did you spend on your visit in this Video?
thank you for this video as I'm planning my trip for this summer! Did you take the 1/2 day or full day with Major Marine? Also, would you recommend it for someone with very, very bad motion sickness like me?
We took the 6 hour tour i believe. It was totally worth it. Most of the time was spent in going and coming back. The waters were not that choppy in summers but you can take a tablet nevertheless :)
How many hours was your cruise?
Nice and informative video. How long was the cruise?
Thanks ! It was a day cruise, from 9am - 5 pm approx.
Loved the video..Which month did you visit Seward,Alaska and what would be the best season to visit?
Hi, we were there in first week of July. July or August would be the most favorable seasons i believe if you want to explore extensively.
July is the scheduled month for all resident Alaskans(all) to DIP NET for SALMON. It will be extensively crowded on the banks of the rivers 🥰 very exciting to watch, esp off the RUSSIAN RIVER (also has waterfall hike😍). (Kenai Peninsula ❤️) Seward is a approx 2hr drive from Soldotna/KENAI. Most, if not all😏 who visit Seward, will visit Soldotna on their way to HOMER (fish capital of the world ☺️) all driven in a days time with time to spend exploring. Albeit so much to see❤️, most tourists spend a day for Homer, one for Seward, one for quick drive to Anchorage - Girdwood, Whittier with the famous “last remaining hand dug tunnel “ in the world (costs to travel thru, it’s one way shared with a train 😲😉) , & there’s a schedule if you choose to explore or take a cruise from there. Both locations are accessible before Anchorage👍definitely need extra day or so to enjoy these ALL😍 🙏🏻🗽🇺🇸
enjoyed your adventure...how much was car rental per day and what company did you book please?
nice video. i would be going to seward for one day. which cruise do you recommend. hopefully mid-july would still good time to see whale.
We went with Major Marine Tours. Mid July is definitely the most promising 😊
Hey, Very informative video. Where did you guys stay in Seward ?
Thanks ! We stayed close to Anchorage and went to Seward for the day.
Love your videos. What is the best month to do this?
I strongly suggest July !
Loved your video. What time of year were you there? We are planning almost an identical trip for May next year.
Thank You very much ! Means a lot .. we were there for July 4th week and the weather was perfect 👌🏼
@@siadhillon what was the temperature during July ? Planning a trip for July 2021
@@Dixy.Z in July, temperatures average around a high of 65 degrees
@@Dixy.Z July is a good month to visit! August it rains a lot. Make sure you have the proper wardrobe with you!
Which cruise do you recommend between Seward cruise and 26 glacier Whittier cruise?
I dont know about these ones. We went with Major Marine Tours 😊
Hi thanks for sharing this video. Can you tell me which month did you visit Alaska?
Hi. You are welcome! We were there in July..
@@siadhillon thanks again! It would be a good time 😀😀
Did you carry any bear spray?
Lovely! Did you rent a 4 by 4? Or regular car
Ours was a regular sedan ..
"on" the Kenai .... but pls folks don't stop in Seward ... it's only the tippy top of the KeyNi
Do you recommend booking the Glacier & Wildlife Cruise of Kenai Fjord National Park with Major Marine Tours early or wait until the sunny day?
I would say to wait till you reach there. Check the weather forecast for next few days till you are there. And then book it for the most promising day 😊
@@siadhillon Thank You !! I will have 2 full days there - hopefully one of them will be sunshine. BTW: is there enough things to do for 2 full days?
@@timnguyen1925 Seward has the right amount of things to do for 2 days. Have Fun ! Wish you luck :)
Was it 8.5 Hour Northwestern Fjord Cruise ?? 6 Hour Kenai Fjords National Park Cruise??
It was a 6 hr kenai fjord - glacier and wildlife cruise
@@siadhillon thankyou so much
Hey hi dear can u pls tell me in which month u went there
Hi. We were there in July 1st week :)
What cruise did you use for resurrection bay
Major Marine cruise goes through resurrection bay to the glaciers.
Hi, where did you guys stay in Seward?
We stayed in Anchorage and did a day trip
Beware that those Alaskan cruises do not always prove successful in witnessing wildlife, aquatic wildlife, or glaciers breaking 🤨 it is more rare and these people were lucky. Also ... ITS VERY VERY EXPENSIVE. (Alaska is my home❤️) definitely worth the trip if you are an outdoorsman/person. Would rather the truth of the rarities of witnessing whales, glaciers breaking, puffins not being seen every cruise.. . depends on season, not just summer 🙃😏🙏🏻🗽🇺🇸
Agree! The weather gets unpredictable in Alaska and depends from day to day. Anyhow, the entire purpose of this video is to show what is the best possible one can achieve. If nothing is seen, then nothing can be filmed and put out. And i always recommend to check the weather forecast for the coming days and then plan your trip on a sunny day ☺️
We are planning to go summer 2021. How many days did you do in Alaska?
It was for 10 days ! Hope you have a great trip :) Happy Planning !
And maybe I missed the name which was the resort with the hot tub ? the views were outstanding
@@sheelag8615 Chena Hot Springs Resort in Fairbanks.
@@siadhillon Thank you so Much!
Total how many days you traveled in Alaska?
Around 10 days 😊
What month did you go?
We were there in July !
Mujhe apse bat kari hai kese karu
Where from you originally ? Me from India
We are also from India 🧡
are you guys indian?
Great video but Alaska's gonna change radically it's because of the no oil policyy with this new administration I wish all of you all the luck in the world
I am glad you like the video 😊. It was wonderful when we visited last year.
No..no not pakistanis
I'm sorry, but your accent corrupted correct pronounciation so much that I found myself laughing at your words instead of following the video. You seem like a lively and wonderful person, but I suggest you use someone else to narrate your video. Have them say exactly what you say, but just cut out your voice. That would be a much better video.
Dude, her voice overs are fine. You're just a turd.
Rude. Why do you bother dropping a vile comment?
You shouldn’t have watched it then . I feel it’s a great video . Very informative. 👍
