Small boats include paddlewheelers, houseboats, and day cruising. There are few overnight cruises available, but several of the small cruising boats offer overnights in hotels along the river.

  Alaskan Adventure... Small Boat Cruise with DISCOVERY VOYAGES on Prince William Sound!  

Sometimes words are not adequate to tell a story! Our Prince William Sound Cruise on the small explorer boat, DISCOVERY, was that kind of trip. We have tried something new... our new Photo Art Site to tell this story.

    We have the real life adventure,  “SWEET STEW: an Alaskan Tale” by Kay M. Rutherford, available through our online Gift shop at www.greatriverarts.com/shopping.

    Kay and her husband raised two babies in remote Alaskan bush locations… first on the Aleutian Islands and then in an Eskimo village on Barter Island. The book is filled with stories and pictures of family life in one of the most remote places in the world.
