A ne pas manquer !

Un grand merci à toute l'équipe de Mitre Peak pour ce moment qui restera inoubliable. Magnifique paysage entre cascades vertigineuses (Bowen falls, Stirling falls... douche garantie), falaises abruptes, végétation luxuriante et montagnes abruptes dont la fameuse Mitre Peak. On en prend plein les yeux. Le "petit" bateau permet de s'approcher du nord des falaises pour profiter encore plus du spectacle des cascades. Les filles à la réception sont adorables et d'une énergie débordante. Bravo à toute l'équipe.

Sympa

Sympa mais un peu long, dans le sens où une fois la moitié faite le retour est un peu long surtout que fonction où on est placé dans le bateau on entend pas toujours très bien le guide + les gens parlent par dessus donc compliqué de tout écouter alors que c'est le plus intéressant de la visite Mais sympa pour visiter les fjords

INCROYABLE

C’était juste incroyable. Bateau beaucoup plus intimiste et petit que les autres donc un must. Café thé et chocolat chaud. Départ à 8h50 et il n’y avait personne !!!
