The George Inlet crab feast stands out as a genuine Alaskan highlight, with guests raving about the all-you-can-eat Dungeness crab and the scenic boat ride to reach the lodge. The experience includes hands-on crab handling, frequent bald eagle sightings, and knowledgeable staff who teach proper crab-cracking techniques. Tour drivers like Louie and David earn special mentions for sharing local insights and making the journey part of the adventure, often stopping at waterfalls along the way. The rainforest setting and waterfront views add to the authentic Alaska atmosphere. A few guests felt rushed during the meal, with warnings that dining time can feel limited when the "last call" comes around. One reviewer noted issues with running out of wine and hand wipes. These timing concerns appear occasionally but don't overshadow the overwhelming enthusiasm most visitors express. The generous portions, friendly staff, and combination of wildlife encounters with the feast itself make this a memorable shore excursion that many guests would gladly repeat.
This was the highlight of our Alaska cruise. We booked directly with the web site. huge savings rather than booking on ship. This company goes above and beyond to make sure you have a wondefull experience. Transportation eas great in their van. Driver very well informed with the area lots of great information on the 25 minute ride to the restaurant. As far as the crab fest! it was one of the best dinners we have ever had. Service and food were amazing. best Dungeness crab we have ever tasted. Its all you can eat and we were both stuffed. Thanks St George Inlet lodge for giving us an expireence we will never forget. This was the highlight of our cruise to Alaska.
