Alaska’s Inside Passage: Where the Mountains Meet the Sea
Misty Fjord, Alaska - MS Roald Amundsen
13-day all-inclusive Alaska expedition cruise from Anchorage to Vancouver
Journey deep into the wilderness of Alaska and British Columbia on this 13-night HX expedition, exploring the vast Tongass National Forest alongside a knowledgeable Expedition Team. Experience nature’s raw power during three days of glacier exploration by small expedition boats, and gain meaningful insight into Łingít and Kwakwaka’wakw culture through visits to Indigenous communities along the way. This is Alaska as it’s meant to be experienced — immersive, respectful and unforgettable.Epic grandeur of Scoresby Sund fjord system
Scoresby Sund is an immense system of fjords and glaciers that fans out over 24,000 square miles. You’ll witness majestic fjord seascapes, stunningly beautiful icebergs, abundant Arctic wildlife and perhaps even visit one of the most remote communities on the planet.
Wild Alaskan adventure
Sail from Seward to Vancouver on this expedition cruise through the southeast region of Alaska. Famed for its incredible scenery, our route takes you into Prince William Sound and Icy Bay, and you’ll be on the lookout for wildlife species along the way as diverse as orcas, whales, bears and Bald Eagles. Activities such as kayaking, hiking and expedition boat cruising will bring you into close contact with nature.
Uncover deep-rooted history
Seeking out culture, just as much as nature, will be your aim as you experience a warm welcome from the local native peoples of Klawock and Alert Bay. Here, you’ll see an impressive collection of totem poles and watch a Kwakwaka’wakw dance performance by the T’sasala Cultural Group. You’ll also explore historic Haines, framed by the mighty Chilkat and Takshanuk Mountains, as well as the immense Tongass National Forest before ending our journey in British Columbia’s Vancouver.
