    Cruising Alaska's Inside Passage, United States
    • Cruising Alaska's Inside Passage, United States
    See sublime scenery as we sail the Inside Passage. The Inside Passage coastal route takes us through the great North American Pacific Fjordland, a protected stretch of water over 930 miles long. Unlike other cruises that pass through at night, you'll be able to view the sublime scenery in all its glory during the day. Our smaller expedition ship allows us to reach areas that larger vessels can't, meaning you'll get to explore lesser-traveled channels with breathtaking scenery. Keep your cameras and binoculars at the ready to catch sight of whales, including humpback, fin, minke, and perhaps even orca. ...

    Misty Fjord, Alaska, United States
    • Misty Fjord, Alaska, United States
    Revel in a wilderness where wildlife thrives. Part of the Tongass National Forest, Misty Fjords are a pristine wilderness of evergreens, waterfalls, and snowcapped peaks. The revered naturalist writer John Muir described the area as one of the most beautiful places he'd ever seen. Weather permitting, you'll join the Expedition Team to tour Misty Fjords in the small expedition boats or take kayaks out. Misty Fjords are rich in wildlife. You'll scan for mountain goats, black and brown bears, and moose as you explore. The waters are home to Pacific salmon, otters, Steller sea lions, harbor seals, orcas, and Dall's porpoises. Skywards, you might spot herons and bald eagles. ...

    Wrangell, United States
    • Wrangell, United States
    Visit one of Alaska's oldest harbor towns. We continue cruising the Alaskan islands towards Wrangell. Only a mile out of town, Petroglyph Beach is where you'll see ancient rock carvings among the sand. Visit the local museum to learn more about Wrangell's fascinating past. Now part of the United States, it was once governed by Britain, Russia, and the Tlingit people. Cross to Shakes Island, where the Chief Shakes Tribal House and totem poles tell the story of the Indigenous Tlingit people. Hikers will enjoy the nature trails, surrounded by alluring scenery at the mouth of Stikine River, and the foot of Mount Dewey at the edge of the rainforest. ...

    See the lesser-known gems of Holkham Bay. Holkham Bay is home to two beautiful fjords - Tracy Arm and Endicott Arm. Your captain will decide which offers better exploration options on the day. At the end of each fjord, fresh icebergs calve from the glaciers against a stunning backdrop of rocky cliffs. This area is a breeding ground for harbor seals, who are often seen on the floating ice. You might also see whales, bears, and mountain goats. ...

    Haines, United States
    • Haines, United States
    Discover an artistic heritage in the 'Valley of the Eagles'. Near the head of the Lynn Canal lies the frontier town of Haines, which was originally home to the Chilkat Tlingit people. They are renowned for their weaving skills, with mountain goat fur and cedar bark woven into intricate designs, and here, you'll see excellent examples of their work. Haines has a flourishing art scene, with galleries and workshops showcasing totem carvings, silverwork, and sculptures. Taking home some Alaskan arts and crafts is a great way to support local creators. The beautiful landscapes here are also ideal for hiking and wildlife spotting. ...

    Feel immersed in ancient nature as you explore an old-growth forest. We drop anchor at William Henry Bay, on the edge of the Chilkat Range mountains, for a day of exploration. Local guides will lead you through the old-growth forest. They'll keep a lookout as you watch for brown and black bears, Sitka black-tailed deer, and moose. Back in the comfort of the ship, we'll get going again as we cruise towards Sitka. Keep an eye out for humpbacks as we pass Point Adolphus on Chichagof Island - it's known as one of the best places for whale sightings in North America. ...

    Sitka, United States
    • Sitka, United States
    Take in Sitka's views and mix of cultures. Surrounded by Tongass National Forest, Sitka is only accessible by sea or air. Get out on deck for stunning views of the Sisters Mountains and Mount Edgecumbe volcano. Inhabited by the Tlingit people for 10,000 years, the town was settled by Russian explorers around the turn of the 19th century before being sold to the United States after Russia lost the Crimean War. Today, Sitka has roots in all three cultures. A visit to the Russian Orthodox Cathedral and Russian Bishop's House is recommended. Admire ornate Haida and Tlingit totem poles at Sitka National Historical Park and enjoy a walking trail through the forest to the ocean. ...

    Icy Bay, United States
    • Icy Bay, United States
    Spot wildlife in these glacier-fed waters. Today is an exploration day in Icy Bay. Three glaciers - Guyot, Yahtse, and Tyndall - regularly calve into this bay. If conditions allow, we'll explore in our small expedition boats or by kayak, immersing in the remarkable beauty of this icy landscape. Wildlife abounds in the Gulf of Alaska, offering unrivaled photography opportunities. Humpback whales, orcas, Steller sea lions, sea otters, and harbor seals lazing on floating chunks of ice are often seen in these waters. ...

    Cordova, Alaska, United States
    • Cordova, Alaska, United States
    Soak up Cordova's traditional small-town vibe. Located in the Chugach National Forest and only accessible by boat or plane, remote Cordova has retained its traditional small-town authenticity. Only a select number of visitors each year get to admire the town's spectacular setting between Orca Inlet, Hawkins Island, Mount Eccles, Eyak Lake, and the Copper River Delta. Sadly, Cordova is probably best known for the catastrophic Exxon Valdez oil spill that occurred in 1989. Today, after significant clean-up efforts, its coastline has recovered - a remarkable testament to what can be done to heal damaged ecosystems - and you might spot wildlife such as sea otters, eagles, Tundra Swans, beavers, moose, and bears. ...

    College Fjord, United States
    • College Fjord, United States
    Get ready to experience nature's raw power. Today we visit College Fjord, which features five tidewater glaciers and five valley glaciers, as well as a dozen other types. The 1899 Harriman expedition team, which charted the fjord, named the glaciers after their alma maters, including Vassar, Harvard, and Yale. Princeton is missing, apparently a deliberate snub. We'll get as close to the glaciers as we safely can, taking our small expedition boats into the fjord or even exploring by kayak if conditions permit. From the water, you might catch sight of humpback whales, bald eagles, otters, and sea lions, all of which inhabit this icy wilderness. ...
