One of the best travel experiences I have had; certainly the highlight of our trip to Alaska. Dean and Megan are genuinely wonderful people and very knowledgeable of the history and environs of Prince William Sound. The small, steel hulled Discovery easily and safely navigated through floating ice to get close to glaciers. Hikes on shore were also great and informative. Dean, Megan and their crew worked tirelessly to ensure we all had a good experience. Megan is a consummate chef; food was consistently excellent. Would do the trip again, but for a longer period of time.

Incredible trip, great food, very knowledgeable crew and captain Everyday was filled with new sights and wonders

Expertise, personal service, amazing food and attention to detail

We wanted an Alaskan small boat cruise and we found the ultimate! The crew were so welcoming, knowledgeable and wanted to show us the grandeur, wildlife and beauty of the Prince William Sound and to experience hiking in boreal forests, kayaking in pristine clear waters amongst icebergs and forest covered fjords and to savor the amazing gourmet food prepared in the tiny galley. It was the highlight of our Alaskan adventure, thank you!

We have travelled all over the world and our five days on the Discovery is one of the highlights of our years of travel. Calving glaciers, sea otters, puffins, towering mountains, fascinating history and cultural information from Hugh and Dean, and delicious food cooked by Meg made this trip truly special. Highly recommended.

We knew we were looking for something extraordinary. We'd narrowed it down to a small boat and a smaller one (Discovery Voyage), loving the idea of getting into all those quiet fjords that the big ships can't reach, and having experts make informed decisions responsive to each day's conditions and opportunities. We were a little nervous about sharing close quarters for a stretch of time - what if personalities might not mesh, etc. How glad we were to have every worry just melt away. This phenomenal experience exceeded our hopes and dreams, and my trust in the crew meant I could truly relax instead of managing every detail of our vacation as I usually do! The warmth, knowledge, and openness of the DV team just made it all even more special on top of the unique experiences and encounters with nature every day. What an unforgettable experience - it was worth every penny.

We and our family and friends had the most amazing time on the Discovery this past July 4th week. Capt Cook, aka Meg, made sure we never went hungry with the incredibly delicious homemade gourmet meals. The 2 knowledgeable and sweet guides Katie and Ashley accompanied us on every off-boat excursion, answering all our questions about flora and fauna, and when on the boat, made sure our every need was met. Capt Dean, the Prince William Sound living legend, crafted each day to expose us to the splendor of Alaska - dropping anchor in beautiful and quiet coves, and leading us on amazing hikes and kayaks where not many other people are able to go - such as following animal tracks up a river, or kayaking through the ice floes with enormous glaciers at our backs. Every day brought new adventure and jaw-dropping beauty, chock full of wildlife sightings, majestic mountain and glorious glaciers. We can't recommend this Discovery small boat voyage enough!!!

Discovery Voyages totally exceeded any expectations I may have had. From the great adventures and incredible food, this was a once in a lifetime trip. The wildlife from humpback whales and puffins, to otters and sea lions was amazimg. I would highly recommend this adventure to everyone.
