Anchorage day tours

[Roo]

There are two day trips from Anchorage that I'm considering - one is to Portage Glacier Cruise and the other to Spencer Iceberg and Pencer River Float.  I know there are differences such as travel by bus or train, but it's more the Iceberg/glacier experience that I'm trying to get a handle on as to which is the better experience.  Is there anyone who has done either who can comment?  Thanks.

I've done the Portage Glacier boat.... its fine.  But I just looked at youtube video of the Spencer Glacier float and it looks more interesting. 

I esp liked this combo trip that includes the Wildlife Conservation Center.

Thanks, I was leaning towards the Spencer trip with the Alaska Wildlife Conservation side trip.  The only thing that attracted me to the Portage trip is getting close to a glacier , not just the icebergs as in the Spencer trip.

 

Appreciate your advice.
