Cruising is the only way to experience Alaska's glacier-carved fjords and monumental rivers of ice. Travel by sea gives you a front row seat to some of the world's best glacier viewing. Nothing compares to the sight of a monumental glacier calving icebergs into the sea. Exciting shore excursions let you explore the best of Alaska's natural wonders and native cultures firsthand. Imagine a place where wildlife is all around you, including whales, dolphins, sea lions, otters, and every imaginable species of seabird. In ports of call, you have the option to hike, bike, raft, fish, dogsled, walk on a glacier and more.

Depending on how long you'd like to travel, choose from the options below for your unforgettable Alaska cruise:

Inside Passage - Depart from Vancouver or Seattle and travel north through the breathtaking Inside Passage. Wildlife abounds amidst the passage's scenic fjords, lush forests, and majestic snow-capped mountains. Ports of call typically include Kechikan, Skagway, Juneau, and Sitka, with plenty of glacier viewing along the way. This round-trip vacation ends at your original point of departure. Additional pre- and post-cruise sightseeing stops are always available…ask your Best Cruises Alaska expert for details.

Glacier Route - See more of Alaska's mountains and glaciers on this one-way passage along Alaska's spectacular southeastern coastline. Depart northbound form Vancouver or southbound from Anchorage (Seward or Whittier). Visit many of the same ports of call as the “Inside Passage” cruise while enjoying extra time exploring the rugged mountains and awe-inspiring glaciers in the Gulf of Alaska. The “Glacier Route” gets you close to the heart of Alaska and is the itinerary that connects with all Alaskan cruise-tour vacations.
