Alaskan Cruise

Categories

When it comes to cruises, an Alaskan cruise is in a league of its own and provides an experience of a lifetime. Different from typical cruises headed to warm destinations and beautiful beaches, an Alaskan cruise brings forth another type of awe-inspiring beauty altogether. Make note of the following reasons why an Alaskan Cruise should be at the top of your travel list.

Cruise Lines Cater to All Ages

 

Once upon a time, it seemed the majority of people who went on Alaskan cruises were elderly. However, that has changed and most major cruise lines, which cater to all ages, now travel to Alaska. Even Disney Cruise Line, known for being family oriented, cruises to this destination. 

Port Adventures

 

Regardless of age, there's something for everyone at the port destinations. For instance, children can pan for gold and watch dog sledding, adults can sample local brews and visit spectacular fjords and glaciers, and people of all ages can enjoy whale watching. 

The Wildlife

 

Alaska is known for magnificent wildlife, which you may first glimpse from the deck of your ship. Just imagine seeing humpback whales, orca whales, beluga whales, and dolphins, as you enjoy a meal or relax. You will also have the opportunity to take port excursions, enabling you to get close to native wildlife, which may include bears, elk, bald eagles, moose, and more. 

See Glaciers

 

While glaciers are the most sought after tourist attraction in Alaska, they are also endangered and are decreasing at an alarming rate. See them from the cruise ship, get closer to them via kayak, take a hiking tour, or see them from a flightseeing tour. You don't want to miss seeing this magnificent sight!

Itinerary Options

 

There are a number of itinerary options, allowing you to find the best fit for you. For instance, there are round-trip Alaskan cruises from both Seattle and San Francisco and one way cruises between Vancouver and Alaskan ports, Whittier and Seward.
