What makes Columbia Glacier Cruise from Valdez a unique experience ?
Columbia Glacier is the largest glacier in south-central Alaska. Each day Columbia calves off around 8 million tons of ice. Depending on this ice flow we will navigate the large ice bergs getting as close to the face of Columbia as the ice and safety dictate.
Prince William Sound is a protected part of the ocean that we cruise in. It is rich with wildlife, glacier, beautiful glacier carved fjords and history.
Stan Stephens Cruises has been operating tours in Prince William Sound for 50 years.
