Venture “Off the Beaten Path” on a Cruisetour Through Alaska

For most people, Alaska is a dream vacation — an adventure of a lifetime that defies expectations. What is it that makes this such an extraordinary destination? In a word, everything — from vast stretches of pristine nature and wildlife nearly everywhere you look to spectacular glaciers. 

Explore the coast and wonders on a 7-day Voyage of the Glaciers cruise, and embrace its majestic beauty while staying in Princess- owned wilderness lodges on the Kenai Peninsula near Kenai Fjords National Park, or Copper River just outside Wrangell-St. Elias National Park, as well as on the doorstep of Denali National Park. Let Alaska’s wilderness envelop you with its mighty evergreens, icy blue glaciers and soaring mountain peaks.

Denali Explorer Cruise Tour

This top-rated Alaska cruise takes you further north than most itineraries and includes the cultural and scenic attractions of the Alaska and British Columbia Inside Passage as well as the Gulf of Alaska, so you can see and experience more.

A magnificent 7-day Voyage of the Glaciers cruise vacation also treats you to two incredible days of scenic glacier viewing, including Glacier Bay National Park. Sailing through serene waters filled with icebergs, you'll get an up-close look at towering Margerie Glacier and perhaps be treated to the spectacle of seeing it calve massive chunks of ice into the tidewater to the roar of "white thunder". If that weren't enough, there's equally impressive Hubbard Glacier or College Fjord also on the itinerary.

But no trip to Alaska is complete without the chance to relieve its storied Gold Rush past and experience its Native culture, and you'll be able to do that and more when your ship calls at the charming ports of Juneau, Ketchikan and Skagway.
