Would definitely recommend this trip to anyone who wants to experience the true beauty of Alaska. I would also recommend the optional flight. Words can't describe it.
We had an awesome tour guide which enchanced the overall trip but from what I've heard on Intrepid, their guides are always knowledgeable and helpful.

The Alaska trip was a perfect way to see a portion of the state in a week! We got to experience the beauty in a variety of manners. Having the trip itinerary set took out any planning or navigation for us, so we could just relax and enjoy.

The Alaska discovery trip provided a variety of experiences in Alaska as a lane tour(as opposed to a cruise ship excursion). I would highly recommend this trip to anyone considering exploring Alaska!
