Major Marine Tours is an award-winning, family-owned Alaska boat tour company celebrating over 25 years of sharing the beauty of Alaska with our guests. We have been recognized as industry leaders for pioneering such innovative programs as bringing National Park Rangers aboard as interpreters and offering passengers reserved indoor seating. We are the first and the only operators to offer an Alaska salmon and prime rib meal freshly prepared onboard, which has been consistently rated the best of any day cruise company in Alaska. Over the years, our awards have included “Kenai Fjords National Park Partner of the Year,” “Kenai Peninsula Outstanding Business in Tourism,” the Visit Anchorage “Member of the Year” Seymour Award, and the Alaska Tourism Industry Association “Visitor Industry Hall of Fame” award for owner Tom Tougas. Our customers awarded us the “2018 Certificate of Excellence” on TripAdvisor. Most recently, our Kenai Fjords Wildlife Cruise was rated most popular attraction in Alaska by TripAdvisor in 2018.

In addition to providing world-class service to our guests, Major Marine Tours is committed to giving back to the community and promoting environmental responsibility through philanthropic giving, partnerships with local non-profit organizations, and performing environmentally-friendly practices on our vessels. Owner Tom Tougas was given the 2016 Business Energy Efficiency Leader of the Year Award from the Seward Alternative Energy Group, and in 2018 Major Marine Tours was the recipient of the Alaska Ocean Leadership Stewardship and Sustainability Award from the Alaska SeaLife Center.
