Glacier Point Wilderness Safari

[My Lady Sydney]

Sorry if this has been addressed before--can't get searches to answer my ??'s.

Has anyone done this thru Celebrity. How difficult is it? We are far from being unable to hike a little ways but again we are no longer 20 yrs old. Just trying to get a better feel for the difficulty and is it worth the $$'s.

I did this through Princess last August. It was a 1-1/2 hour boat ride out, then a short bus ride. When we got to their camp, they gave us a simple lunch, then we put on the necessary gear and walked down to the water. We then got into the canoes. The canoes are also motorized so you don't have to paddle the whole way there. Once we got to the glacier, we got out and walked on the glacier. It had rained the whole way there but as soon as we got to the camp and the canoes, the sun was out the whole time. It was cold but absolutely beautiful.

 

For me personally, I thought the money was worth the trip but I'm not sure if the cruise lines charge the same amounts.
