Kanai Fjords - advice needed

In August 2015, ROS arrives Seward at 5 am, looking to take 6 pm train to Anchorage. If we do one of the Kanai Fjords day cruises (6 hour +), what do we do with our luggage? Any recommendation for tour operators?

Or should we just use one of the ship organized excursions instead?

thanks!

When I contacted Major Marine Tours & Alaska Heritage Tours they both told me they'd be happy to Hold our luggage in their office.

The tour operators will hold your luggage.

Also, since you're taking the train, the Seward depot lets you check your luggage that morning. (look under FAQ's on the Alaska Railroad site).

Not sure how early they will do this so call them to find out.

Thanks for the great tips!!

Wow, I second the thank you for the tip on the checked bags at the train depot!

In the past, I could always drop my bags off at the Alaska around 9am. This year, they were firm with their posted opening time of 10am. You will not have any access to checked bags until Anchorage, so you still likely will have some bags to carry. As mentioned, all the vendors will hold bags.
