>Glacier Bay Tours and Cruises does trips of this nature.  It is an Alaska
>Native Corporation.  Website is www.glacierbaytours.com.  I went with my
>11-year-old son on their 3-day, 2-night Glacier Bay package in 1997.  We
>were pleased, and I'd consider one of their kayak tours.  When I went, we
>stayed at the Glacier Bay Lodge, and spent an extra day there to do some
>guided protected kayaking (guided by a different local company) near the
>Lodge.  We took their ferry from Juneau to Gustavus but flew back in a
>3-seater plane.  We had a great time!

>If you are really adventurous, you can take a kayak (which you could rent
in
>Gustavus) aboard the Glacier Bay tour boat that does a day trip up into
>Glacier Bay itself.  They have 3 or 4 dropoff/pickup points within Glacier
>Bay.  It's a huge wild area (complete with Grizzly Bears).  I think the
main
>arm of Glacier Bay is 65 miles long, and there are numerous side fjords as
>well.  Only 3 or 4 tour boats per day go into the whole area, and we saw
>only a couple of kayakers dropped off or picked up the day we went (early
>July).  Just show up at a pickup point when you're ready to leave.
