Our trip with Discovery Voyages was amazing. The sturdy, 65 foot, steel hulled boat allowed us to go into Fjords on Prince.

The only way to really experience Prince William Sound
One of the best trips of my life. Five days aboard Discovery exceeded all expectations in terms of the scenery, wildlife, hikes, food and good company. Meg and Dean are fantastic hosts. Booking the trip was easy. Days onboard the Discovery were filled with anticipation and excitement as we sailed around coves, spotting wildlife and calving glaciers. Discovery is a small boat. Sleeping quarters are compact but comfortable. Bathrooms, saloon, galley, and deck areas are immaculate. The meals prepared by Meg were outstanding. Life onboard was a lot of fun. Dean was an excellent skipper and hiking guide. If you are after a unique experience and are a little adventurous, you will have a brilliant time on Discovery. Book earlier in the season if you can to try and catch the best weather. Pack lightly and remember to bring your camera!

Awe Inspiring Alaska
The crew, food and adventures were first class. Well organized and safety was always the first consideration. Hugh our guide was full of information and stories not only about the animals, birds, geology but also the politics and history of Alaska. Very knowledgeable as was Captain Dean.

The best of vacations
The weather could have been better but hardly noticed with all the great activities carefully planned out and executed by our captains and crew surrounded by captivating scenery. First class in every way including outstanding meals prepared fresh throughout each day by Megan. A truly enjoyable vacation.

We had a great5 days on this charming…
We had a great5 days on this charming boat. I was sorry not to see more of the sound where we could see whales but the weather was against us. The walking and canoeing were highlights. My lasting memory was the delicious food Meg spoilt us with!

Trip of a lifetime
Trip of a lifetime. Even with rainy weather, this trip was one of the most beautiful excursions ever. The food was incredible. I cannot compliment Meg enough on her perfect planning and preparation of the meals. Being on a tiny boat with a limited number of passengers allows for an intimate Alaska experience. Hugh was an incredible guide. Dean, Hugh and Meg were all extremely knowledgeable on all topics "Alaska". I hope to do another Discovery Voyage trip in the future.
