Taking a cruise to Alaska offers access to parts of this raw, rugged and picturesque state that cannot be accessed by road. Available only during a five month summer window when sea ice does not pose a significant hazard, Alaska cruises are extremely popular.
It’s not just the land based attractions, such as the stunning landscape and proliferation of sea-based wildlife easily visible from the decks that make cruises to Alaska so attractive. Onboard the smaller liners that operate in this part of the Pacific, passengers are treated to fantastic facilities, great food and drink options and very comfortable cabins.
Whatever urges you to jump aboard chances are it will be on one of two Alaska cruise itineraries. The first option covers the Inside Passage which normally involves embarking at either Seattle or Vancouver before progressing north, past the impressive Glacier Bay National park and the rest of the south-east Alaska panhandle before returning to your starting port.
The second Alaska cruise option involves taking a one-way trip and sailing the Gulf of Alaska in addition to the Inside passage. It is slightly more extensive taking in such fabulous sights as the Denali National Park which includes the impressive Mt. McKinley, before disembarkation at Anchorage.
Another option would be to package together an Alaska cruise with a tour of the Canadian Rockies on the Rocky Mountaineer train.
Although those itinerary options are the most popular, others are added frequently, so before booking check the latest breathtaking Alaska cruises deals here at The Co-operative Travel Cruises.
