Wonderful guides, food and excursions.
Responsive and informative

It could not have been any better! Great crew, awesome boat, and a fun filled agenda of kayaking and hiking in the most beautiful places. Oh and did I mention the incredible meals that we were served?

The smaller size yet roominess of the ship, quick access to secret coves and wildlife, the skill of the captain and knowledge of the guides, amazing food and all around friendliness—you cannot do better than this. Outstanding!!

Choose Discovery Voyages If you want to truly experience the magnificent Prince William Sound on a small cruise boat. From Captain Dean’s experience and Megan’s awesome meals to the support of a friendly and knowledgeable crew (Katie, Baird and Ana) this was an incredible journey! With a small number of passengers this quickly felt like more like a family than a group of strangers.

The crew was fantastic, the food was amazing, the knowledge of the guides was excellent. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

I honestly can't think of anything negative about that great voyage. Very knowledgeable staff, pleasant and helpful, great food, I was hoping to get photos of otters and puffins. Got both plus much more (orcas and wolverine and bear). Everything about that trip exceeded my expectations. Thanks again.

We were so completely cared for, competent and interesting skipper/captian, food was first rate, kayak and hiking excursions. Katie and Beard great naturalists.

We were able to immerse ourselves in the Alaskan wilderness & wildlife with dedicated, experienced, & enjoyable locations, staff and Alaskan culinary delights.

The small size of our boat coupled with extraordinarily talented group-leading by Hugh Rose and Katie, knowledgeable navigation by Dean, and delicious meals by Meg made the trip one that puts the huge cruise ships to shame. We could go places Princess Cruises couldn't. We each had our own kayak so no one had to sit out. Dean could change an itinerary in an instant if we found a pod of orcas leaping or bears fishing salmon out of nearby streams. He knew how to avoid the high wind conditions and still get us within spitting distance of calving glaciers. For folks who like to get up close and really feel what it's like to walk into the wild but safely with experienced guides, there's nothing that can beat this experience!

Our Discovery Voyages experience from August 14th to 17th was absolutely exceptional. From start to finish, the crew delivered a level of hospitality, expertise, and genuine care that made the trip unforgettable.

Captain Dean set the tone with his calm leadership and deep knowledge of the region, making every moment feel seamless and well‑coordinated. Megah brought incredible warmth and energy, and her outstanding meals were exceptional. Katie was outstanding—professional, attentive, and full of great insights that enriched the experience. And Baird added a fun, engaging presence while also being incredibly helpful throughout the voyage.

Every member of the team contributed something special, and together they created a trip that exceeded expectations in every way. Highly recommend Discovery Voyages for anyone looking for a truly memorable adventure.

I know the phrase "trip of a lifetime" is used often, but in this case, it truly applies! I had the great fortune to travel with five of my family members on a four-day cruise from August 14-17, 2026. I really can't adequately describe what an amazing and unforgettable experience this trip was. From the moment we stepped on board, I was blown away by how attentive, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic the crew was. Truly four of the nicest people I have ever met. Captain Dean had so many great stories, and it is clear he is very passionate about all the wonders of Prince William Sound. He always made me feel welcome when I would hang out in the pilot house, and would patiently answer all my questions. Meg is an incredible partner to Dean, and the meals she prepared for us were some of the best I've ever had. I can't get over how she consistently produced delicious, hot meals in a very tiny galley. The tortellini soup is a particular standout. I'm still dreaming about it! Katie and Baird were the perfect guides for our hikes and kayaking adventures. They have so much knowledge about the plants, animals, and geography of Prince William Sound, and learning about the things we saw made the trip all the more meaningful, and gave me a greater appreciation for the beautiful state of Alaska. The boat itself was lovely and cozy, and the accommodations were very comfortable. The size of the boat allowed us to get up close to glaciers, bears, sea lions, otters, waterfalls, and many other sights that you could never manage on a large cruise ship. We were provided with all the waterproof outerwear we needed, which made packing for the trip very easy. We are hoping to take another cruise with Discovery Voyages in a few years. I highly recommend this company to anyone thinking of it. You will not be disappointed!

Our adventure on Discovery Voyages was amazing for many reasons, our 2 captains Dean and Meg along with our 2 guides, Katie and Baird were full of interesting information about the area, were kind and patient with our questions, helpful and FUN! The food was delicious, my husband bought Meg's cookbook, the meals were so yummy. The areas Dean took us to were all determined by what would give us the best experience while always keeping an eye on the weather to keep us comfortable and safe. Our rooms were clean, plenty of room to store our things with comfy bedding. Sharing the bathrooms were no issue at all, as guidelines were given to help us be considerate of others.
The kayaking, hiking, scenery and animal life we viewed gives this experience an A+++!

We had a wonderful adventure cruise with Discovery Voyages! The boat was well equipped with kayaks, rubber boots, waterproof gear, and more to accommodate all 12 passengers of various sizes. Captain Rand used his extensive knowledge and decades of experience on the Sound to select the most enriching adventures with kayaking, hiking, marveling at the majesty of glaciers, and viewing wildlife. Meg’s cooking magic translated into delicious gourmet meals, and she shares her recipes!
Our guides, Katie and Baird, did everything possible to ensure our comfort and help us experience our adventures. I was impressed with them both. I would go again in a heartbeat!

The voyage was the most relaxing week of our lives. Perfect in every way. Thank you guys so much. 👍

Our Discovery Voyage was a once in a lifetime experience! The unbelievable scenery would have rated five stars on its own, but couple that with the wildlife viewing, hiking, kayaking and some of the best seafood we have ever tasked and that was our incredible adventure. Meg kept us fed. while Dean, Katie, and Baird kept their eyes pealed and educated us on the beauty and science of the Prince William Sound. If you love nature, a Discovery Voyage is a must!

Staff who enjoy their job, flexible itenerary that adjusts to changing tides and weather, knowledgeable boat captain, delicious food all comine into a memorable trip

Dean, Megan, Katie & Baird all did a FABULOUS job on our voyage. My wife and I are returnees and the voyage (and the Sound!) did not disappoint this time around. The crews’ overall knowledge of the Sound added significantly to our enjoyment and safety. Highly recommended!

This was our second voyage, and it fully lived up to its predecessor. Reservations, transportation, travel, hiking, kayaking and meals were all on pointe! We hope to make it a trifecta and go in our if the more adventurous cruises next time.

Dean &Meg,
Thanks for a wonderful experience in Alaska.
Loved the places you stopped, the knowledge you have of the area, and the luscious hot meals that were prepared for us 3 times a day!
The kayaking was great and we had plenty of up close ventures with the glaciers, salmon, bears, need I go on.
Thanks to the great crew too, Katie and Baird, for all your patience with us and your knowledge.
Wonderful trip! Thanks again.

We spent three remarkable days with Captain Dean, Megan, Katie and Julia. We felt at home immediately boarding the boat. Captain Dean is very knowledgeable about Prince William Sound, Megan is an an amazing chef and Julia and Katie was extremely helpful with everything. Gourmet meals, calving glaciers, sea lions, sea otters, puffins, bears, salmon and more. No better way to spend three amazing days in Alaska.
