Alaska

Ever-growing in popularity, a cruise to Alaska is not your conventional vacation experience. Instead of basking in the sun and lying on beaches, travelers get the chance to hike through emerald green mountains, fish in sapphire waters, and observe wildlife with white-snow capped mountains as a backdrop. Guests will want to bring a nice pair of binoculars with them for the chance to see exotic wildlife such as bald eagles, brown bears, sea lions, humpback whales, salmon jumping through the cruise ships' breaking waters, and more.

With breathtaking scenery and a variety of spectacular landscapes, cruisers can experience an entirely different lifestyle with food, art, adventure, and more. Alaskan cuisine consists of an abundance of marvelous seafood, as well as smoked salmon, wild berries, and even reindeer sausage! Travelers can also experience a variety of Native culture through totem carving, music, historical museums, heritage centers, and crafts including woven baskets, and items carved from ivory, jade, animal skin, and bone.
