Apostle Islands National Lakeshore Ice Caves

Reviewed By PrairiePaddler - Madison, United States

Outstanding, definitely one of the better narrated scenic cruises we've experienced. Our 2-1/2 hour Grand Tour was conducted by a lifetime local resident who grew up on the water and had a wealth of information to share. The ice caves on Devil's Island alone are worth the trip.
