The BEST Tour We’ve Ever Taken? | Kenai Fjords, Alaska
Our grand RV adventure through Alaska continues as we arrive in beautiful Seward, Alaska — and this stop turned out to be one of the highlights of our entire Alaska journey! We found an amazing city campground right on the water, where we were treated to incredible views and even had eagles hanging out right near our campsite. But the real adventure was waiting offshore… We headed out on a Kenai Fjords boat tour, and WOW — this may have been one of the best boat tours we've ever taken! With perfect weather and spectacular scenery, the Kenai Fjords showed us why this part of Alaska is so special. During the tour we were incredibly fortunate to see: 🐋 Orcas 🐋 Humpback whales 🦦 Sea otters 🐧 Tufted puffins 🐧 Horned puffins 🦭 Sea lions 🦭 Harbor seals 🐬 Even a pilot dolphin riding in the wake of our boat! And then we visited Aialik Glacier, where we witnessed some amazing glacier calving! But the wildlife and glaciers weren't the only surprise. We also witnessed a rare atmospheric phenomenon known as a Fata Morgana superior mirage — an incredible optical illusion that made it appear as though mountains were rising where there were actually none. It was something we'll never forget! After our boat tour, we headed out to Exit Glacier for a hike to get an up-close look at another spectacular Alaska glacier. The only problem? The mosquitoes apparently wanted to come along for the hike! And just when we thought our Seward adventure was complete, our travel plans took an unexpected turn. Our Alaska traveling companions had a broken rear leaf spring AND a failed tongue jack on their travel trailer. They made the trip to Anchorage for parts, came back to the campground, and Mike helped tackle the repairs right there in the campground. Fortunately, they were back on the road in about three hours! And, of course, no Alaska town is complete without another stop in our Alaska Cinnamon Roll Challenge! We found a local Seward bakery and put their cinnamon roll to the test against all the others we've sampled along the way. Come along with us as our Alaska RV adventure continues through Seward, Kenai Fjords National Park, Aialik Glacier and Exit Glacier! If you enjoyed the video, please leave a comment.
