My wife and I visited the Tracy Arm Fjord as part of our cruise. It was a cold, rainy and foggy day but I still got some very nice pictures to share. I played with the features of the camera and was able to bring out the blue in the glaciers.

We were lucky to have a clear/sunny day in early May yet......and enjoyed spectacular views. Highly recommend a cruise that includes Tracy Arm.

This was the highlight of our Alaskan cruise . We spent the day going up Tracy Arm and saw seals, whales, eagles, AND glaciers. We thought we saw a bear - turned out to be a big rock!

If I had a choice of cruise ships and one was going to visit Tracy Arm and the other was not, then I would choose the ship that included Tracy Arm. The journey along Stephens Passage in itself is quite magnificent; your eyes will be darting left and right as the mountainous scenery starts to fold around your ship. Then... More

We did a Tracy Arm small-boat excursion off of the Holland America Zuiderdam in August 2012. It was a gloriously clear day, and the scenery in the arm was just amazing. Really gave us a lot of good glacier viewing, along with waterfalls. Being on the small boat made the experience so much better. The excursion was not cheap, but... More

I've been at least 6 times (including one wedding charter) and never get tired of this day trip. We ALWAYS recommend this to visitors and everyone raves about it. It's less expensive and more accessible than a trip to Glacier Bay from Juneau. Any of several vendors will take you on a 3 hour each way comfortable boat ride (enclosed... More

Highly recommend visiting. The water on the way there is an amazing creamy blue and there are bright blue icebergs everywhere. The cruise ship was close enough to where we could hear the ice breaking off. We had a balcony in our room and it was great to sit outside with a hot beverage watching the beautiful scenery.
