This seven-hour tour departs from the Anchorage Hilton and includes an hour drive each way alongside Turnagain Arm to Portage Glacier. Onboard the Ptarmigan you will have an hour-long forest service narrated introduction to Portage Glacier. This is an active glacier and its movements cause large chunks of ice to "calve" off of its front side into the Portage Lake. From 300 yards of the glacier it offers viewers an upclose look at the unforgettable color of ancient ice. Admission: adult USD69; children USD34.50 under 13. For more tours, please visit the website.
