  • Ketchikan, United States
Enjoy a one-night hotel stay in Ketchikan, a relaxed, immersive way to ease into Alaska.

Nestled along the Tongass Narrows, the town is known for its colorful waterfront, historic Creek Street, and one of the world's largest collections of totem poles, reflecting the deep traditions of the Tlingit, Haida, and Tsimshian peoples. Your overnight stay allows time to explore local shops and museums or simply to enjoy the misty rainforest setting that defines Southeast Alaska. ...

  • Metlakatla, United States
Metlakatla is a unique and culturally rich port located on Annette Island and is the only federally recognized Indian reservation in Alaska. Home to the Tsimshian people, who relocated here from British Columbia in the late 1800s, the community maintains strong traditions. View totem poles and cultural displays that share clan histories and traditions passed down through generations. Visit the longhouse which stands as a central gathering place, where ceremonies, dances, and storytelling continue to play an important role.

Misty Fjord, Alaska, United States
  • Misty Fjord, Alaska, United States
As you cruise through Misty Fjords, the sense of scale is immediate and unforgettable. Glaciers carved this landscape over thousands of years, creating narrow passages, steep rock walls, and waterfalls that tumble directly into the sea. From the comfort of the ship, admire the massive granite cliffs rising from reflective waters, their upper reaches often veiled in mist. Lush rainforest blankets the shoreline, dominated by spruce and hemlock, while seals, whales, and seabirds can be spotted along the route. Accessible primarily by boat or floatplane, Misty Fjords remains quiet and remote, an impressive showcase of the region's raw geology and thriving natural habitats. ...

Wrangell, United States
  • Wrangell, United States
Once governed by four different nations, Wrangell holds one of Alaska's most layered histories. Visit Petroglyph Beach to see ancient carvings etched into the rocks or join a jet boat trip up the Stikine River-a vital corridor during the Gold Rush. A local expert will guide you through the botanical wonders of Tongass National Forest, home to some of the world's oldest temperate trees and part of Southeast Alaska's vast rainforest ecosystem. ...

Petersburg, United States
  • Petersburg, United States
Founded by Norwegian fishermen, Petersburg remains a working harbor where tradition meets innovation. Explore its docks and canneries or venture out on a guided flightseeing or jet boat excursion for sweeping views of the LeConte Glacier. In town, stroll through "Little Norway" and continue "out the road", as locals say, to Falls Creek waterfall, where salmon often gather in this Southeast Alaska fishing community. ...

Endicott Arm, United States
  • Endicott Arm, United States
  • Cruising Dawes Glacier, United States
Journey through Endicott Arm, a fjord formed by ancient glacial movement and defined by granite cliffs that rise steeply from the water's edge. As the ship travels deeper into the channel, narrow streams tumble from the cliffs, and harbor seals rest on drifting ice. Humpback whales and bald eagles are often seen nearby, drawn by the nutrient-rich waters of the fjord. At the far end, Dawes Glacier comes into view-a massive tidewater glacier that descends from the Stikine Icefield. When ice breaks free and falls into the sea, the sound rolls through the valley, a vivid reminder of Alaska's ongoing transformation. ...

  • Skagway, United States
Once a booming outpost for stampeders, Skagway preserves the character of the Gold Rush era in its wooden storefronts and historic saloons. Step aboard the White Pass & Yukon Route Railway, tracing the perilous path taken by Klondike stampeders in 1898. Trek through the National Park Service district, where preserved buildings tell the story of a town built on ambition and grit. Stops along the scenic route at Dead Horse Trail, Brackett Wagon Road, and Pitchfork Falls showcase the beauty and history of this legendary landscape. ...
