Trust us: the Alaskan outdoors is warmer than you think, and more spectacular than you can imagine. -
Relaxing onboard
As you venture on your Alaska cruise journey to fascinating ports of call, you’ve got time to indulge in the facilities onboard. A blissful massage or relaxing spa treatment is the perfect way to unwind, followed by a refreshing dip in the pool. Join in the fun with an exciting live cookery show complete with hands-on workshops. Or stroll through the boutique, duty-free shops onboard. Come evening, a world-class show will be waiting to entertain you. -

From cocktails and nightlife to comfy movie theatres and musical shows, there is so much to choose from.

No wonder cruisers spend so much time choosing their cabin! A once-in-a-lifetime Alaska cruise has some of the most breathtaking scenery in the world. The right cabin is paramount not just for your enjoyment, but for capturing those unique moments, too. On a Celebrity, Holland America or Cunard cruise, there’s a cabin to suit every holiday-goer.

Choose Aquaclass for unlimited access to their serene Persian Spa, or pick Concierge Class for extra services like priority check-in.

Dream Destinations
Stop off in wild places
-
Stop off in wild places
Perched on the edges of glaciers and fjords, the towns you visit on your Alaska cruise are hidden deep in the wilderness – and are all the more beautiful for it. No roads lead to Juneau, so its mysteries are revealed only to the intrepid who venture by air and sea. Seward’s charm lies in its fascinating fur trade heritage. Towns like Ketchikan and Icy Strait Point immerse you in a wealth of culture and history. The Gold Rush might be over, but Alaska still has riches to discover. Wild and fascinating Alaska shore excursions like these provide for a truly unique experience. -
Gold Rush heritage in Skagway
Many Alaska cruises sail up to the Northernmost point of the Inside Passage as far as Skagway. Skagway is famous as the best-preserved Klondike Gold Rush town in the area. Explore the historic wooden boardwalk streets, learn about the intrepid prospectors and try your hand at panning for gold. There are also fantastic hiking opportunities here. The Harding Glacier is right in the town’s backyard, and you’ll see the stunning Glacier Bay National Park next door. -
Anchorage – the gateway to Alaska
Some cruises continue past Skagway and the Glacier Bay National Park, all the way up to Anchorage. This port is the perfect gateway to explore the spectacular wilds of Alaska by land. From here you can take an excursion into Denali National Park, where the skies are wider and the mountains taller than you ever imagined. The snow-covered cap of North America’s highest mountain peak, Mt Denali (Mt McKinley) towers over everything else.
Wild Encounters
Meet Alaska’s residents
-
Meet Alaska’s residents
Alaska isn’t a world-famous wilderness destination for nothing. When you cruise here, you can bank on seeing some incredible wildlife along the way. Bald eagles soar overhead. Porpoises, humpbacks and orcas swim the waters of the Inside Passage. Grizzlies roam Alaska’s shores during summer when the salmon are plentiful and the fishing is easy. Arctic terns and mountain goats, Dall sheep and puffins, sea lions and otters: there is so much waiting to meet you. -
Whale encounters
A spout of water vapour misting the air. An elegant dorsal fin rising up. A tail fluke disappearing down. When you spot a whale on your cruise in Alaska – whether it’s a fleeting glimpse or a thundering breach – it will set your spine-tingling. These beautiful animals are an almost guaranteed sighting along your journey, with humpbacks and orcas commonly sighted. Ghostly Belugas swim near Anchorage, and Fin, Minke and Gray whales also inhabit these icy waters. -
Alaska's grizzly bears
Seeing a wild Alaskan brown bear in all his grizzled glory is one of the most remarkable sights awaiting you on your trip to Alaska. Extend your trip into Denali and the Yukon and you could be lucky enough to spot a grizzly bear ambling across the road in front of you or grazing in the tundra. The iconic Brooks Falls - where grizzlies expertly fish for salmon as they jump up the cascades - is just a short flight from Anchorage, in Katmai National Park.

Why Alaska takes our breath away…
Just imagine yourself onboard a luxurious Alaskan cruise: you make your way to the top deck and wave goodbye to the beautiful skyline of Vancouver. As you pull out of the harbour, the city twinkles on one side, and mountains soar on the other. As you cruise ahead, the Inside Passage opens up into vast stretches of shimmering blue water. You can see whales breaching and bald eagles flying overhead. Soon the jagged icebergs and ice floes of Alaska's wilderness come into view. If that's not enough, when night-time arrives, you might even be lucky enough to see the spectacular Northern Lights. A 2022/2023 Alaska cruise will be a holiday you won't forget!
Holland America Line and Celebrity Cruises cruise ships make their way up the dramatic Inside Passage from Vancouver to Alaska. Cruising Alaska is one of the best ways to see these rugged coastal landscapes and hard-to-reach wilderness areas. At each stop, choose to enjoy exciting tours and shore excursions for an authentic insight into Alaska's diverse cultures.
Adventure seekers can take advantage of many outdoor activities on offer, including kayaking and canoeing past glaciers, hiking through rainforests, and ‘flightseeing’ tours by helicopter. Want to catch a glimpse of Alaska’s fantastic wildlife? Take a boat tour through icy waters for your chance to witness humpback whales and orcas in their natural habitat.
After a busy day, simply relax as your every need is taken care of. The hardest decision will be deciding which gourmet restaurant to dine in that evening!
This is just a taste of what's possible on Alaska and Canada holidays. Get in touch with us today to tailor-make your dream getaway.

Where can I dine?

What should I wear?
Wear casual, comfortable layers and sturdy shoes with grip on deck during your Alaska cruise. Evening attire is usually smart casual.
Will I get seasick?
Don't worry - the islands of the Inside Passage provide protection from the open ocean, and modern ships are very stable.
What can I do in port?
An Alaskan cruise is full of activities. When the boat stops, the adventures begin! Hike, go whale watching and even walk on glaciers.
Where will my cruise go?
Sail from Vancouver over to some of Alaska's most exciting cities, including Juneau, Skagway, Ketchikan, Seward and Anchorage. You'll have the chance to pass famous sights like Icy Point, the Hubbard Glacier, Tracy Arm and Glacier Bay along the way.
