ALASKA & THE INSIDE PASSAGE

Overview

Click map for larger size

Get ready for the vacation of a lifetime in Alaska, "The Last Frontier." Begin your trip with an orientation tour of Anchorage, Alaska's largest city. Then you - re off! Stop at a gold mine, visit the award-winning dog kennels of an Iditarod champion, and ride the Alaska Railroad past Mount McKinley to Denali National Park. Spend two nights in Denali National Park and watch for wildlife, including moose, caribou, Dall sheep, and bears on a Tundra Wilderness tour. Then choose your activity: a scenic float trip, flora and fauna excursion, or round of golf. Enjoy the mountains and pristine wilderness at the Hotel Alyeska, surrounded by towering spruce trees and hanging glaciers. On your way to Seward, see wildlife, including bears, elk, moose, coyote, and bison up close at the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center.

Embark your 7-night Alaska cruise ship in Seward and set sail for College Fjord, Glacier Bay National Park, and the Inside Passage. Watch for spouting whales, soaring eagles, barking seals, and other wildlife. Marvel at glaciers and witness the amazing spectacle of thunder and spray as tremendous slabs of ice break off and "calve" into the sea. Experience Russian culture in Sitka; soak in the local flavor of Juneau, Alaska's capital; and see the world's largest totem collection in Ketchikan. Disembark in Vancouver, the ideal ending to your Alaska cruise vacation.
