Gustavus.com Alaskan cruise notes:
1)
Specific ships and/or cruise dates will vary, so pay close attention to detail and take notes.
2) Realize that most of the largest Alaskan cruise ships spend only a few hours in Glacier Bay, but for many it is the best or only way they can see the sights. These boats can venture deep up into the bay, but are not capable of actually letting passengers off within the park itself due to their large water displacement.
3) Very few of these ships include a stop in Gustavus! (due to the size of the dock)
