DO NOT BOOK - This is sold a year round tour, that's false advertisement. Don't kid yourself if you attempt this tour, you won't see the glacier between Oct to May. They took us on a "hike", supposedly to see a glacier. There were 2 feet of snow on the trail that wasn't visible. Even the guide was sinking every step of the way and stopped half way to the glacier because of the impassable conditions. The wildlife experience was fine, but much cheaper if you do it on your own. In the Woods Alaska is not a reputable company that stands by its product.
