Alaska cruises are teeming with opportunities for the seasoned, outdoor adventure-seeker, with rugged, back country treks and hikes in the beautiful national parks.

Featured Alaska Attractions

Alaskan cruises are generally divided into two types; Inside Passage cruises and the Gulf of Alaska. The Inside Passage has been the traditional way to cruise Alaska, with most ships sailing round-trip and cruise from Vancouver or Seattle. These cruises normally navigate through the glacier country, reaching as far north as Skagway or Juneau. The Gulf of Alaska covers more territory as they travel from Vancouver through the Inside Passage and up to Seward/Anchorage (or the reverse).

Visit Juneau on Alaska Cruises

Only accessible by ship or by plane, Alaska’s capital city Juneau gracefully blends frontier ruggedness with cosmopolitan flair. Visit the Mendenhall Glacier, an immense river of ice measuring1.5 miles in width and over 6 miles in length.

Embark on a once-in-a-lifetime trip to the Juneau Icefield. Peaks of ice called ‘nunataks’ push through the ice – the highest peak is known as Devil’s Paw, straddling the Alaska-Canada border and standing at 8,584 feet (2616 m) tall.

Discover Icy Strait Point

22 miles southeast of Glacier Bay National Park lays Icy Strait Point, the perfect place to spot eagles soaring through the skies or an elusive brown bear in its natural habitat. You’ll also have the chance to spot majestic humpback whales breach the water, as their magnificent tails create crashing waves in the distance.

Visit Ketchikan with Alaska Cruises

The unspoilt ancestral home to the Tlingit people, carvers of the world’s largest collection of totem poles, Ketchikan stems from the Tlingit phrase “katch kenna”. This roughly translates as “spread wings of a thundering eagle”, in homage to the hundreds of eagles that nest in the mountains nearby.
