After spending the first night in Anchorage and arriving in Seward to kick off Day 1 with scenic stops and a glacier hike, Day 2 dives even deeper into the heart of the park’s raw, untouched wilderness by boat.Today’s adventure takes you beyond the land trails and onto the water with a breathtaking fjord cruise into the Northwestern Fjord. You'll glide past towering sea cliffs, drift among icebergs, and witness up-close calving glacier experiences that truly showcase why this park is a gem of the Alaskan coast.
