Frequently work with my company, but for it not being a guided tour, got in some fantastic sights. Saw sea otters, porpoises, an eagle, and some of the most spectacular mountains and glaciers (partially covered in snow) I’ve ever seen. Knowledgeable staff, with cool stories to tell, just be prepared for the wind and unpredictable weather of Whittier for travel accommodations. Even checking a week or a few days in advance is no guarantee but the captains will get you there safely and Sound-ly weather provided.

Awesome cruise with Captain Jenn and naturalist Aubrey! We felt safe, well-cared for and the commentary was great. We enjoyed a variety of weather during our cruise and saw the most beautiful rainbow! I also liked getting off the boat to walk along the beach- the small black stones were worn smooth and thin and being able to look up close to the incredible mosses and vegetation was fascinating!

Once in a lifetime experience! This was the highlight of our trip to Alaska. Capt. Jen was phenomenal and so knowledgeable about all things Alaska. We learned so much about the glaciers and the wildlife. The best 8 hours we have ever spent on a boat. The sandwich lunch and snacks were wonderful. Lazy Otter Charters did an exceptional job of making this a 10/10 experience!

My friends and I took a tour with Tyler and he exceeded our expectations tenfold. At the start Tyler asked what we wanted to see. Some wanted glaciers, others asked about wildlife, scenery, and marine life. Tyler took us from beautiful mountains, to small corners where we saw black bears eating salmon, and Eagles flying overhead, to islands covered in sleeping Sea lions, Puffins, and Red starfish. My favorite was the Glaciers, where we actually witnessed 2 seperate glacier walls break away and fall into the water. And of course we can't forget the cute Otters, laying on their backs, playing in groups. We definitely gave him an A+ for holding off the heavy clouds until we got back. We all had a blast, and thank Tyler for a great time. --Mike, Joel, Mavis, and Don.

Captain Tyler took us on an amazing tour! We saw not only several glaciers up close, but some amazing waterfalls and more wildlife than expected (whales, porpoise, bald eagles, sea lions, and more!). Highly recommend! He was also engaging and knowledge, and made the excursion exceptional.
