Vibrant and varied, Alaska weaves indigenous roots, Russian heritage, Gold Rush history, and the resilience of its modern-day communities. Native cultures strongly influence Alaska way of life, from names of rivers, mountains, and forests to the art and architecture in modern cities. We learn the significance of totem poles, experience ceremonial dances, and reflect on a way of life built on preserving the natural world with intention.
Hyper-local fishing, farming and foraging create a culinary scene enhanced by some of purest and most sustainable foods on the planet. Savour Dungeness crab and craft beer in Ketchikan; kelp salsa and reindeer tacos in Juneau; spot prawns in Sitka; and wild game in Skagway. Morels and berries pair with red salmon, black cod, scallops and oysters. From British Columbia to the far-flung Aleutian Islands, every dish is guided by seasonal rhythms
Where wildflowers bloom against a backdrop of snow-capped mountains and glaciers, and puffins and whales compete for attention with dolphins and seals, Alaska’s presents one of the world’s most animated landscapes. Listen as the ice shifts at the Mendenhall Glacier; explore the lush landscapes of the Tongass National Forest; or admire the Glaciers of Valdez, Columbia, and Worthington as they meet Prince William Sound. Observe nature at its most powerful at Prince Rupert’s Grizzly Bear Sanctuary or watch humpback whales breach in the Inside Passage. Sail through pristine fjords or ascend by tram to see Juneau from lofty peaks.
Alaska’s story spans over 10,000 years, from the knowledge of the Tlingit, Haida, and Tsimshian peoples, to Russian settlements and wartime stories. Towering totem poles, ritualistic song and dance, and onion-domed churches reflect these layers of eras past. Whether by boat, rail or trail, we explore Alaska’s native arts and traditions, vestiges of World War II relics and the captivating museums and galleries that house treasured artefacts and mementoes.
Life in the Last Frontier revolves around the outdoors, where people live in harmony with nature, believing all living things are sacred and inter-connected. A sanctuary for slowing down; seasons dictate the pace. Remote villages and modern cities are equally influenced by a landscape carved out of Arctic tundra, giant rivers, and fjords, where hiking, dogsledding, skiing and boating invite a grounding connection to Mother Nature.
