Portage Glacier Highway Tunnel, Alyeska

I'm headed to Alaska next week. I'm doing the Kenai Fjords N.P. Cruise offered by Alaska Heritage Tours. It leaves at 10am and gets back at 6.30pm.
I'm also flying out of ANC at 12.45am that night (next morning). Plan to get around in a rental car that I need to return before the flight back home.
My question is: Would it be possible to head up to portage glacier and Alyeska for a view of the seven glaciers (and potentially a quick dinner) on the way back. The tunnel schedule seems to give a 15min window every hour. How reliable/ delay-free is it? Am I shooting for too much? Was planning to see exit glacier before the cruise but if Alyeska is dicy to include, I'd rather look around Exit Glacier after the cruise.
Please advise.
Thanks,
-R
