sharkaymon Posted February 25, 2016 #1 Share Posted February 25, 2016 We've got one excursion reserved for our July 12 Alaskan cruise on Carnival Legend = Tracy Arm Fjord and Glacier Explorer. We want to reserve one more excursion - Whale watching. I've narrowed it down to two: 1. Mendenhall Glacier & Wildlife Quest 2. Whale Watching & Wildlife Quest There are two in our party of five that can only walk short distances. Have you experienced these excursions and would you recommend one over the other one?

zqvol Posted February 25, 2016 #2 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Better to ask this on the AK port of call board, however, if you are looking to avoid walking you should probably avoid the Mendenhall Glacier excursion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, there is a lot of confusion how to navigate this site to find what people are looking for and I thank you for steering in the right direction.

cb at sea Posted February 25, 2016 #4 Share Posted February 25, 2016 The whales don't always comply. Pick one, and hope for the best! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted February 25, 2016 #5 Share Posted February 25, 2016 I would ask about this on the Alaska Ports Of Call Board. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mumtopugs Posted February 26, 2016 #6 Share Posted February 26, 2016 The Mendenhall Glacier wasn't bad for mobility. My sister and I did it in September. I'm healthy and enjoyed perusing the beach and getting closer into nature. My sister walked from the bus directly to the elevator and enjoyed the view of the glacier from the visitor center.

love2travel41 Posted February 26, 2016 #7 Share Posted February 26, 2016 If you are willing to book with someone other that CArnival, try Marv and Harv's Whale WAtch. Smaller boat,fewer people We did it with six of us and it was wonderful! We've got one excursion reserved for our July 12 Alaskan cruise on Carnival Legend = Tracy Arm Fjord and Glacier Explorer.
