Description
Interpreters from CNF-GRD staff the Klondike Express and the Glacier Quest, vessels that travel on Prince William Sound from Whittier, AK to view a variety of glaciers and wildlife. This provides an opporunity for the public to gain a comprehensive understanding of the CNF, the landscape throughout which they are sailing. Likewise it allows the staff of the company to focus on the operation of the vessel & to focus on the safety & comfort of their passengers. These tours are 4 to 5 hours.
