DISCOVER THE MAJESTY OF ALASKA

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.

Alaska is vast, wildly remote and striking with its true raw beauty. From blue-ice glaciers to hulking brown and black bears, we sail the Whale’s Highway to encounter humpbacks, orcas, dolphins and seals.

Here in our Alaska, explore the lush landscapes of the Tongass National Forest, and the glacier-rich landscapes of Mendenhall.

Culture

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’s 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.

Culinary

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.

History

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.
