Alaska Cruises

An Alaska cruise is the only way to truly explore one of the world's last great wilderness areas.

Each cruise line offers a different experience but all guarantee an up-close view of Alaska; America's last frontier. Towering glaciers, vast forest and jagged mountains dot the magnificent landscape of the Inside Passage while towns such as Skagway are a great calling point for a raft of exciting excursions.

The best time to cruise in Alaska is from May to September when you may be lucky enough to spot migrating whales and other marine life including dolphins and seals. Onshore, keep a close eye out for bears, caribou, eagles and more as Alaska's lush environment is home to an incredibly rich array of wildlife.

Most Alaska cruises sail from Vancouver and Trailfinders can easily arrange a tailored Western Canada itinerary in combination with your cruise. You may choose to add on a fly drive itinerary, an escorted coach tour or the famous Rocky Mountaineer train. As nobody in the UK organises more holidays to Alaska and Canada than Trailfinders, you couldn't be in safer hands.

If you'd prefer to cruise to Alaska from Seattle then why not add on a city break or a fly drive holiday of the beautiful Pacific Northwest region? Our expert cruise consultants can offer their advice and tailor your Alaska cruise holiday to your exact requirements.

Trailfinders work with all of the world's top cruise lines in Alaska, including Celebrity Cruises, Holland America Line, Silversea and many others.
