DESCRIPTION

Explore Prince William Sound on this one-of-a-kind Comic Con VIP experience hosted by the great Sam J. Jones. We’ll travel aboard a luxury catamaran through Passage Canal as we head to Blackstone Bay, a dramatic deep-water fjord, where two tidewater glaciers and several alpine glaciers await. The white spray of glistening waterfalls cascading down to the sea from glaciers perched on the mountain peaks make for an amazing backdrop while being surrounded by the beautiful Chugach National Forest. Keep an eye out for sea otters, Steller sea lions, bears, mountain goats, and whales as you travel in comfort with our industry exclusive No Seasickness Guarantee!
