Alaska Backcountry Cruise Tour Experience

Alaska is one of the most beautiful and diverse cruise destinations in the world and features an array of snow-capped mountain ranges, fjords and glaciers, hiking trails through rain forests, animal life ranging from brown bears and orca whales to American bald eagles. Alaska lures nature lovers and photographers, families and retirees, and those on a budget as well as people looking to pull out all the stops with a luxurious vacation. Individual yacht companies, large cruise ships and smaller backcountry softadventure vessels ply the waters of Alaska's Inside Passage - so there is a perfect experience waiting for everyone.


ACT#01 Inside Passage Backcountry Adventure Cruise
Destinations: Juneau - Icy Strait - Glacier Bay - Admiralty - Tracy Arm
Tour Length: 07 Days

This cruise (max. 72 passengers) focus on the unspoiled wilderness areas of Southeast Alaska's Glacier Bay, Admiralty -, Baranof -, and Chichagof Islands. Explore Alaska by kayak, off-vessel hikes and walks, as your trip winds its way past hidden inlets and around misty islands. Welcome bald eagles, humpback whales and brown bears into your circle of friends and allow the cacophony of calving ice to soothe your own savage beast. Everyday holds the promise of adventure on this unshackled cruise. Our belief is that a pod of feeding whales, mountain goat perched on the cliffs and birds diving for their supper are sights too important to miss. We have devised a route that explores the untamed wilderness of Alaska’s Inside Passage.






ACT#02 Southeast Alaska Cultural Cruise | Inside Passage
Destinations: Juneau - Admiralty Island - Glacier Bay - Point Adolphus
Tour Length: 08 Days

The journey offers the perfect opportunity to combine the Adventure Cruise with a Cultural Cruise program as we exercise the body during the day with fun adventure activities and later, exercise our minds with lively evening presentations and hands-on active learning that will bring Alaska’s unique cultures to life. We will sail Alaska’s most remote waterways on a vessel that holds 72 passengers and visit tiny ports unaccustomed to the crowds of larger cruise lines. Experience a unique and rewarding perspective on Alaska’s superlative scenery, astonishing wildlife and engaging cultures. What’s more, visitors spend a full day exploring all of Glacier Bay National Park – the ancestral home of the Tlingit Indians.
