Glacier Viewing (Stikine Icecap), Alaska

White Thunder!

Set out on a high-speed expedition boat, directly from your Disney ship, to discover the Alaskan wilderness.

On this adventure you will…

Board a deluxe, Alaskan-built vessel directly from your Disney ship and enjoy nearly 3 hours immersed in the beautiful Alaskan inlet channel connected to the Stikine Icecap, a large icefield that spans the Alaska–British Columbia boundary in the Alaskan Panhandle.

Weave through shimmering icebergs and travel near the rugged shoreline aboard a boat with exceptional agility. As occasions arise, the captain will stop to allow for viewing and photography of wildlife, such as pigeon guillemots, bald eagles, harbor seals, mountain goats and bears.

Enjoy compelling narration about the area from a knowledgeable naturalist and crew members. The small group offers Guests personal access to these guides for additional questions and conversations.

Feel the "white thunder," if you’re lucky enough to see the immense spires of ice break from the glacier and crash into the sea. Although glacier calving is likely, it is not guaranteed. Either way, views from the topside observation decks offer a chance to take in unforgettable views.

Spend time in an extended drift near the glacier's face.

Return to the ship after maneuvering back into open water.
