THE ALASKAN EXPERIENCE
cannot be captured in one single image or moment. For our
guests, the journey north is a nonstop odyssey of glorious
landscapes, majestic wildlife and exploration of some of the
most remarkable points on the planet. On an Alaska cruise you can count on seeing nothing but the best
this amazing land has to offer.
GLACIERS
Like frozen sentries standing guard along the glistening
coastline, these massive bodies of ice offer some of the
most spectacular sights and sounds you'll experience on your
Alaskan adventure.
Regularly shedding enormous chunks of ice into the sea,
these wonders of nature can be found in pristine Glacier
Bay, along the wandering banks of College Fjord, and amid
the cascading waterfalls of Tracy Arm - all of which can be
savored from the deck of a cruise ship.
