Alaska Cruises and Landtours - see the glaciers and wildlife of a world wilderness area

Alaska Cruises - explore the glaciers and coast of this unspoilt area

Explore the remote places of Alaska - our planet's last frontier. Cruise the famous 'Inside Passage', see humpback whales at play, and get close to magnificent glaciers.

We offer two types of cruise into the heart of Alaska:

Larger cruise ships visit the major ports, and get as close as possible to the glaciers and natural attractions. These ships offer more amenities, a choice of restaurants, and provide a wide range of entertainment. Optional excursions at ports cover Alaska's many sightseeing opportunities.

Our small ships are informal in style and more flexible in their exact itinerary. Two ships carry kayak for more expedition oriented cruising; the other offers more luxury, but the same ability to get close to nature.

Few people take an Alaska cruise on its own. A variety of landtours are available, integrated with the beginning or end of the cruise. The most popular take you into the Denali National Park for wilderness trips in search of moose, bear and caribou. These may include stays in the Park, or overnights in the towns of Anchorage or Fairbanks. Also popular is a tour in the Rocky Mountains, often with a train through the best scenery.
