+ Program Overview

Alaska’s Inside Passage

Alaska is a destination of superlatives - most rugged, most remote, most majestic. For centuries, travelers have made difficult, dangerous journeys to explore - and to exploit - this harsh and beautiful land. The inexorable forces of nature are on full display here - mountains eroded by the crushing force of massive glaciers, icebergs crowding cold aquamarine seas, the reproductive cycles of plants and animals compressed into the scant, warm weeks of an arctic summer.

There is no better time to see Alaska than during the long days of the higher latitudes, and no better way to appreciate the teeming life of the coastal waters than from the comfort of a 36-passenger deluxe vessel. A small vessel offers advantages that no city-ship can match, a chance to have a more personal, and meaningful, connection with nature and your fellow travelers. A flexible itinerary and more maneuverability means that you can see and hear orcas and humpback whales as they surface, undisturbed, alongside the ship; quickly deploy kayaks to get a closer look at nursing sea otters and fishing grizzlies; or float peacefully in a secluded bay, redolent of sea and forest, while bald eagles swoop and wheel overhead.

Program Highlights:

Sail on the deluxe 36-guest Safari Explorer, a beautifully designed and appointed vessel with inviting public areas, spacious all-outside cabins, gourmet dining, an all-inclusive bar, and comfortable skiffs and kayaks.

Experience two days in Glacier Bay National Park observing the abundant wildlife that inhabits some of the most beautiful scenery on earth.

Stand in awe as icebergs calve from enormous glaciers and fall thunderously into the sea.

Enjoy unparalleled access to quiet coves, small inlets, and the flexibility to linger while bears roam the beach or humpback whales bubble-net feed only yards away.

Explore cool, forested Admiralty Island, and watch for grizzly bears feeding on the beach during low tide.

Marvel at the deep glacial fjords in Endicott Arm, where sparkling waterfalls tumble down sheer cliffs and mountain goats cling to precarious perches.
