We Tried Virgin Voyages’ SECRET $900 Excursion… Is It Worth It?

We spent $900 on one of Virgin Voyages’ best-kept secrets — an Alaska excursion you can ONLY book once you're onboard Brilliant Lady. 👀🧊 This first-come, first-served Shore Thing takes you off Brilliant Lady and onto a smaller boat to get closer to the spectacular Dawes Glacier in Endicott Arm. Along the way, we sailed through ice-filled blue-green waters, spotted porpoises swimming alongside the boat and even watched the glacier calve right in front of us. But here's the catch… 💰 $900 for two people 🧊 Around 30 minutes at Dawes Glacier 🚤 Around 1.5 hours travelling to the glacier and catching Brilliant Lady back up 🤫 Only available to book onboard It was undoubtedly one of the most surreal places we've ever visited — but after meeting someone who paid less for a helicopter excursion that actually LANDED on a glacier, we had a question to answer… Was Virgin Voyages' secret $900 glacier excursion actually worth it? Watch until the end for our verdict — and let us know in the comments: 🚁 $600 helicopter glacier landing OR 🚤 $900 Virgin Voyages glacier drive-by?
