Originally founded by Robert Gliersdorf who also owned the now defunct Exploration Cruise Lines, Glacier Bay Cruiseline is an eco friendly cruise line operating in Alaska and the Pacific Northwest.

The line's four small ships offer in-depth cruises to Alaska's most spectacular natural attractions far away from mass tourism.

"We go out of our way–and more to the point, every one else’s–to seek adventure at every turn. At Glacier Bay Cruiseline, we are the innovators of adventure cruising. While others seek to imitate our ideas and itineraries, we are busy adding new features to our cruises.

Our philosophy is to take you to wild and special places so that you can get a little untamed. We want you to delight in every day you spend with us–discovering more about the world and yourself.

Glacier Bay Cruiseline pioneered small-ship cruising in Alaska, bringing like-minded travelers to the rugged North. We were the first to introduce kayaks into cruise itineraries. Our company has more history, longevity, and more experience. And our ships sail with more kayaks than any other cruise line afloat.

We offer trips tailored for outdoor enthusiasts. When we create a voyage, we assemble an expedition team. We hand-pick our Naturalists, Guides, Captains and Crew–all dedicated in their respective fields. All for this one goal: to create the best adventure possible for you."
