Terms & policies

Terms & payment policies:.

Trips run rain or shine! This is a coastal rainforest and thus there is a lot of rainy days. Weather cancellations are rare and made only when conditions are considered unsafe for paddling. Please remember that these are outdoor activities, and Mother Nature is always the one in charge.

Trips may be delayed or cancelled due to rough seas or strong winds. It is recommend that you leave extra days both before and after your scheduled trip in case the weather does not cooperate.

If your trip has a delayed start time or an early pick-up time due to weather, but the trip still runs on the dates planned, there will be no refund or pro-rated cost. Trips will not be cancelled solely on account of rain, so please be prepared for that.

For all tours without a water taxi (Resurrection Bay Half Day Tours and Caines Head Day Trips), guests will receive a full refund for cancellations made more than 1 week prior to your trip date. Within 1 week, your trip fees are nonrefundable.

If you decide to cancel your trip with us, please consider transferring your payment to a gift card. That way you can join us in the future, whether it’s this summer or a future season, providing an easy way to postpone your vacation plans while continuing to support our small, locally-owned business.

Travel insurance is strongly suggested for all guests, to ensure protection against cancellation penalties and many other unforeseeable circumstances, such as an emergency medical evacuation. The weather in Alaska can sometimes delay trips for a couple of days, and it’s worth being financially covered for any changes to your itinerary.

*Full refunds include: trip fees, add ons, and taxes & fees, minus $10 per person booking fees for all half & full day trips & $25 per person booking fees for multi-day trips*

• Northwestern Glacier
• Ojive Glacier
• Anchor Glacier

A great option for those who want to immerse themselves into Kenai Fjords National Park and Alaska’s wild backcountry, but don’t want to hassle with packing all of the gear along, as well as those who just prefer to enjoy the experience without dealing with all the set-up, tear-down and meal prep.

These fully-outfitted, multi-day trips allow you to enjoy all of the best locations and make the most of your time camping in Kenai Fjords wild backcountry while leaving the set-up and tear down of camp to someone else. Your package includes a wildlife boat tour, kayaks and all the gear you need for your kayaking adventure, high quality rain gear if needed, and all your camping gear, (minus sleeping bag and sleeping pad – although those are available for rent if necessary.) Also included in your package are all of your meals (warm, healthy and made from scratch), as well as snacks, coffee and hot drinks.

Three different adventure options are available, with plenty of customization available for each, to fit your desires.

Aialik Bay Adventure

The Aialik Bay area is hard to beat when it comes to incredible scenery, wildlife exposure and adventure with the tidewater viewing experiences. Explore impressive fjords, watch the massive tidewater glacier as it calves into the bay, explore lagoons and paddle beneath thundering waterfalls! This trip offers a lot of value in a relatively economical package!

Can’t decide? The Aialik & Northwestern Combo Tour allows you to experience the best of both area in one amazing trip! This 6-day guided tour gives you the time and opportunity to spend a few days exploring both areas!

More Information

• Chevron down The Full Itinerary

Your day begins with an early morning departure at 6 a.m. on our comfortable water taxi for a two to two-and-a-half-hour wildlife tour and transport to the Kenai Fjords National Park. The boat ride alone is an adventure as we traverse the vast beauty of the Gulf of Alaska. The day continues as we cross the submerged terminal moraine of Northwestern Glacier (a full 8.75 miles from the current face of the glacier!) and into Northwestern Lagoon, where the ocean depths shoot from over 400 feet on the outside to 24 feet at the crossing, and then down to 600 feet on the other side of the moraine! Enjoy opportunities to view black bears, coastal birds, and a host of marine mammals over the whole course of your trip — not just on the sea kayaking portion!

We land ~ 8 – 9:30 a.m. in the heart of the Kenai Fjords National Park on one of many beautiful pristine beaches. Your guide talks you through your kayak and gear on the way, providing paddling advice and raising situational awareness, which should allow for a quick start once unloaded.

Then it’s time to start paddling , where a rugged coastline folds into five sizeable glaciers for a full-day excursion. You and your group explore the park, moving from place to place from circumnavigating Striation Island to crossing in front of tidewater glaciers, this journey ranges from 8 to 15-miles, depending on the group’s speed and intentions. Trips travel at the pace of your group, so whether you’d like to cover as much ground as possible or rest on a beach with your journal or camera, we work to accommodate you!

The water taxi boat picks you up in the late afternoon, 4 – 6:30 p.m. , depending on the day, and the crew loads your kayaks and gear. The return trip explores the Kenai Fjords all the way back to Seward, keeping an eye out for the many whales migrating and feeding through our area. We aim to be at Miller’s Landing by 6 – 9 p.m., depending on how exciting our sightseeing options are on the way home.

We do reserve the right to be flexible — marine weather and logistics can delay things or require an earlier pick-up. Keep in mind they are boats, not trains, and we have to heed the demands of the ocean from time to time.

• Chevron down Cancelations and Rescheduling
• A $10 cancellation fee is imposed for all reservations canceled.
• Cancellations must be received by email only to [email protected] . The cancellation notice date is the date the email was received at [email protected] . Phone cancellations will not be accepted.

If we are not able to rebook your reservation, then no refunds will be issued and you will also be charged a $10 cancellation fee to your credit card.
• In some situations, a raincheck worth 75% of your reservation may be issued at the discretion of Miller’s Landing management instead of the applicable cancellation charge. If this option appeals to you, please suggest this at the time of cancellation. Rainchecks are good for one year and may be used for activities, camping, or lodging owned by Miller’s Landing or towards the cost of hats, T-shirts, gifts, etc. sold in the Miller’s Landing store or items sold online.

Please note: Miller’s Landing encourages only guaranteed prepaid reservations. Unlike many other states, Alaska has a very short tourist season, which can make it difficult for us to rebook when we have cancellations without ample notice.

If you are booking a charter and lodging and your charter, water taxi, or kayaking is canceled due to weather, you are still responsible for the lodging or camping reservations and the normal cancellation policy applies. All of our activities are possible during rain, so rain does not constitute a cancellation.  Miller’s Landing is not responsible for vehicle break downs, personal emergencies, flight delays, health issues or other unforeseen hardships. We will try very hard to work with you, but the cancellation policy will need to be applied if we cannot issue a raincheck or find an alternative solution that appeals to both parties.

Please understand that Miller’s Landing also incurs a hefty financial merchant fee from our bank for the cost of charging your credit card and again for the cost of refunding it, and there is also a cost involved for the time involved in processing and refunding your reservation in employee costs. Our goal when taking your reservation is to have a solid, guaranteed prepaid reservation. We strongly discourage the practice of making reservations without having an airline ticket or making tentative reservations. Thank you for your understanding.

Kenai Fjords Boat Tour

Resurrection bay & kenai fjords tour, wildlife boat tours in seward, alaska.

One of the most popular things to do in Seward, Alaska, is a boat tour of Resurrection Bay & Kenai Fjords National Park. It’s a great way to get on the water, learn about the area, observe coastal Alaska’s wildlife, and visit a tidewater glacier.

If you’re thinking of pairing our Half Day Resurrection Bay Kayak Tour with a boat tour to see the park, we’d recommend instead considering our combo tour: the Aialik Glacier & Wildlife Day Trip . This tour combines an intimate wildlife boat tour out to Kenai Fjords National Park with an unforgettable glacier sea kayaking experience at Aialik Glacier, the largest tidewater glacier in the park.

The water taxi we use for our Aialik Glacier Day Trip has a 24-passenger capacity, and our captains are actively searching out wildlife viewing opportunities on our way to Aiaik Bay. You’ll have your knowledgable Kayak Adventures guide by your side the whole time, so rather than listening to an interpretive talk on a tour boat’s loud speaker, you’ll be having a face-to-face conversation about the glaciers, wildlife, and ecosystems around you. Our guide to guest ratio is 1:6, so you’ll have plenty of time and opportunity to learn from our professional, warm, and enthusiastic guides.

Rather than just spectating, we’ll disembark the water taxi when we reach the tidewater glaciers of Kenai Fjords National Park, where we’ll enjoy about 3 hours of kayaking. Listen to the ‘white thunder’ of Aialik Glacier calving, spot harbor seals resting on ice flows, and paddle along the enchanting coastline of the glacial fjord. Then return to Seward on the water taxi for another couple hours of spotting the wildlife who call this place home, arriving in town just in time for dinner.

Although we welcome children younger than any other kayaking operator in Seward, and our guides are wonderful with kids, all of our kayaking tours require a minimum age of 6 years. An excursion on a tour boat provides an alternate option for families traveling with younger children. Boat tours can also be a solution if some members in your party want to go kayaking with us, but others are unable. Sign them up for a boat tour and you can swap stories at the end of the day over a delicious meal in Seward.
