Small Ship Cruises & Expeditions
Alaska
Explore Fascinating Wildlife, Rugged Wilderness and Awe-Inspiring Natural Wonders
Embark on a small ship cruise around Alaska to experience its untamed wilderness up close. These cruises take you through the stunning Inside Passage and into the heart of Glacier Bay National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where you can witness massive glaciers and diverse wildlife, including humpback whales and brown bears. The smaller size of these ships allows access to narrower waterways like Tracy Arm Fjord, offering a more intimate glimpse of Alaska's spectacular landscapes and remote areas, from the densely forested islands of the Southeast to the volcanic Aleutian chain. This is a journey that combines adventure with the comforts of smaller, less crowded vessels, ideal for those looking to explore Alaska's vast natural beauty in a more personal setting.
