David is a friendly and knowledgeable guide. The tour was a wonderful experience. Perfect for 3 1/2 hours for my wife, teenage son, and myself. Thank you David.

Summer 2021 myself and four others went on a 10-day independent, backcountry kayak trip down Glacier Bay. While an experienced camper and kayaker, I had not previously done a backcountry kayak trip in a damp, cold climate. Yes, the equipment we rented was great, reliable, and sturdy; but it was the other resources that made Glacier Bay Sea Kayaks stand out as an exceptional outdoor company. Their website is an INVALUABLE RESOURCE! The website contains everything from understanding tides, how to get permits, where to buy gas after flying in, and packing lists. We all stuck to the pack list and were glad we had! Synthetic sleeping bags which were better when wet and rubber boots were far more essential than we would have ever guessed! I never felt I was a bother when I called with a question prior to the trip. The night prior to our trip staff met with us to review our paddle plan as well as point out good water sources and areas to take particular care. They also gave us an informative safety briefing. I was traveling with two teens and two in their twenties so having this covered just prior to launching made the parent in me very happy. Other companies probably have equally good equipment; but it was the other stuff that made our adventure safe, hassle-free, and perfect! Having the right gear and knowing what to expect made the difference between a good trip and an AMAZING trip!! As a family we are no strangers to outdoor adventures; and I have to say, I am more than a little impressed with Glacier Bay Sea Kayaks' staff, website, gear, and upbeat friendly manner. I would absolutely recommend them to other families or groups looking for a backcountry experience.
