Trip of a lifetime
Our trip on the Northern Dream was exceptional. The crew was welcoming and attentive to the guests. We were able to cross everything off our list that we went to Alaska to see. We saw whales, porpoises, otters, eagles, bears and magnificent glaciers. We also got to fish for halibut, crab for Dungeness crab and enjoy the fresh catch. It was an incredible experience and a trip we’ll never forget.

Outstanding experience overall from the boat: very quaint and comfortable, the crew: very friendly, knowledgeable and wanted to provide the best Alaskan experience, the scenery: most beautiful places, mountains, animal life and so much more, the excursions: we experienced places only a small cruise ship can go, and the food: every meal and in between snack were delicious.

Great Experience
This cruise was a great experience that people on the big boats can't do. We were able to kayak right off the boat. Go into areas that only small boats can go. See Grizzly bears feeding on salmon less than 50 yards away. Saw so many Humpback whales including a bubble net about 10-20 yards in front of the boat. We caught our limit of halibut and the crew cooked it that night for dinner AND fileted and packaged the remaining halibut so we could take it home. Pulled crab pots and the crew cooked it for dinner. We went into the small villages of Tenakee Springs and Baranof and the crew knew people in each village that gave us great insightson what to do and introduced us to locals that made our stay even better. The crew anticipated what we needed, were so nice and generous, all the great food you would want for every meal. This was a great experience. You have to go. You will love it!

The cruise offered a varied of Alaskan experiences.
The crabbing for Dungeness crab was interesting, fun, and rewarding. That evenings dinner of all you can eat crab was fantastic. On route we came across a pod of 9-10 whales. We stopped and viewed them for about 45 minutes. None of us ever saw a group of whites bubbling before. We were the only boat in the area. Halibut fishing was Also a unique experience. Captain took us to get boxes that allowed us to take our catch home.

You gotta do this!
This was a great week on board a non standard Alaska cruise vacation. With only 6 passengers we went to places and saw things that aren’t available on big boats. We saw whales dancing in our forests 3 hours out of Juneau and another occasion when the were bubble feeding. The 3 person crew was fantastic and responded to any and all requests (within reason). Don’t expect white table cloth dining. This was all of us sitting around the table eating family style. The meals were totally varied to include ribs, prime rib, fresh caught halibut, fresh crab with NY strip steaks! No body lost weight! There was plenty of beer, wine and sodas available. Truly memorable experience.
