Just a note about a fabulous scenic tour out of Seward Alaska aboard the Cat Five tour boat. Enjoy seeing lots of birds, sea lions, otters, whales, dolphins, glaciers and drinks with ancient ice. The cat is extremely comfortable. Charters can be half day or full day and can be chartered for private groups of 6 or less. If you are looking for a more leisurely scenic cruise then you must check out Cat Five it’s the best I have been on In my 50 years in Alaska.
