Alaska CruiseTours

What Is An Alaska CruiseTour?
Very simply, a CruiseTour is the combination of a land tour and cruise. We not only recommend a CruiseTour but go so far as to say you won't fully experience Alaska without adding both land and cruise aspects.
Why An Alaska CruiseTour?
People go to Alaska for six reasons: Glaciers, Wildlife, Wilderness, Mountains, History, and Culture. A seven-night Alaska Inside Passage Cruise will undoubtedly give you a taste of Alaska and a chance to see marine wildlife and glaciers. An Alaskan land tour into the interior region allows you to experience Alaska’s wilderness, mountains, and land wildlife. If you only do one of these, you only see one side of Alaska. Both cruising and land tours are great vacations, but neither gives you the whole Alaska experience on their own.
Alaska CruiseTours offer the best of both worlds. Combining a relaxing and luxurious cruise vacation along the Alaska coast with an adventurous land tour lets you explore the interior of Alaska, including Denali National Park. You’ll stay in authentic lodges and enjoy scenic rail travel on a luxurious train with a domed glass ceiling.
A CruiseTour is Right for You If:
You want the cruise vacation to see the spectacular coastline, marine wildlife, tidewater glaciers, and Inside Passage ports of call. However, you also want a land tour where you’ll see Alaska’s Great Frontier for bucket list experiences:
- Denali National Park: Denali (Mt. McKinley), mighty glacial rivers thundering out of the mountains, and tundra stretching as far as the eye can see
- The Big Five: Bear, moose, caribou, Dall sheep, and wolves
- Local Insights: Meet Alaskans and learn about their lifestyle
- Big Cities: Anchorage and Fairbanks, the cities where most Alaskans live
When Can You Take an Alaska CruiseTour?
CruiseTours begin in late May and continue through early September. Whether you cruise when Spring flowers blanket the Inside Passage, during the peak season of Summer, or when Fall foliage is ablaze, you'll be awed at Alaska's natural wonders in any season. Exceptional wildlife viewing and substantial savings opportunities are available during the shoulder seasons of Spring and Fall.
