Inside Passage & Glacier Bay
Glaciers, whales and mountains that drop straight into the sea.
Why go
Alaska is made for cruising. Ships sail the Inside Passage past forested islands and snowy peaks, into fjords where glaciers calve into the water and humpback whales surface beside the deck.
Ashore, Juneau, Ketchikan and Skagway offer whale-watching, glacier walks, float planes and gold-rush history.
Don't miss
Tidewater glaciers taller than a city block. Hear the ice crack and watch it fall into the sea.
Brown bears fishing for salmon, humpbacks in the channels and bald eagles overhead.
From Skagway, a narrow-gauge train climbs the gold-rush route into the mountains.
