Day 4
Denali National Park, United States
Behold a landscape shaped by time and legend, where dense forests rise to alpine slopes, and the great peak of Denali commands the horizon. Once known as Mount McKinley, the mountain's original name Denali, meaning "the high one" in the Koyukon Athabascan language, reflects the deep connection Alaska Native peoples have long held with this land. Accompanied by a trained naturalist, learn how Denali became a symbol of both cultural reverence and conservation, preserved as a national park in 1917 to protect its wildlife and vast wilderness. As twilight settles over the range, the fading light casts a golden glow across the tundra and glacial valleys. Grizzly bears wander through open meadows, moose feed near quiet streams, and the sounds of the wild fill the evening air, a reminder that Denali remains as untamed and awe-inspiring as it was centuries ago. ...

Denali National Park, United States
Train Travel
Anchorage, United States
In the morning, board a deluxe dome railcar for a scenic journey from Denali to Anchorage. As the train winds south, panoramic windows reveal river valleys, distant peaks, and the vast expanse of the Alaskan wilderness along the Southcentral rail corridor. Anchorage, founded as a railroad construction camp in 1914, has grown into Alaska's largest city and a gateway to both commerce and adventure. Framed by the Chugach Mountains and Cook Inlet, the city balances modern life with proximity to untamed nature. On clear days, Denali rises on the horizon, a striking reminder of the frontier spirit that continues to shape this northern hub. ... Read More
Kenai Fjords National Park reveals the meeting point of mountains, glaciers, and sea. Established in 1980 to protect nearly 700,000 acres of coastal wilderness, the park showcases the slow, powerful movement of ice that has shaped Alaska's southern coast for millennia. As you travel through these waters, watch for humpback and orca whales, sea otters drifting through kelp beds, and puffins nesting along the cliffs. Your captain and naturalist guide share insights into the park's geology, marine life, and the early explorers who first charted these fjords. Conclude the day in Seward, one of Alaska's oldest communities, founded in 1903 as the southern terminus of the Alaska Railroad. Over dinner with fellow travelers, take in the town's harbor views and relaxed pace. ... Read More

Knowledgeable staff share insight into the center's ongoing conservation efforts and Alaska's broader history of wildlife preservation. After your visit, return to Anchorage for an evening of rest at your hotel, preparing for the cruise portion of your Alaskan journey. ... Read More
After exploring Alaska's national parks, take a short flight from Anchorage to Juneau, the state capital since 1906. Nestled between the Coast Mountains and the Gastineau Channel, Juneau is the only U.S. capital unreachable by road, accessible only by air or sea. Upon arrival, enjoy a group lunch before checking into your hotel, where mountain and harbor views reflect the city's unique setting within the Tongass National Forest.

In the evening, explore its historic streets, lined with shops, galleries, and landmarks that speak to its mining past and maritime ties. ... Read More

Cruising Wrangell Narrows, United States

Wrangell, United States
Once governed by four different nations, Wrangell holds one of Alaska's most layered histories. Visit Petroglyph Beach to see ancient carvings etched into the rocks or join a jet boat trip up the Stikine River-a vital corridor during the Gold Rush.

Day 15
Endicott Arm, United States
Cruising Dawes Glacier, United States
Journey through Endicott Arm, a fjord formed by ancient glacial movement and defined by granite cliffs that rise steeply from the water's edge. As the ship travels deeper into the channel, narrow streams tumble from the cliffs, and harbor seals rest on drifting ice. Humpback whales and bald eagles are often seen nearby, drawn by the nutrient-rich waters of the fjord. At the far end, Dawes Glacier comes into view-a massive tidewater glacier that descends from the Stikine Icefield. When ice breaks free and falls into the sea, the sound rolls through the valley, a vivid reminder of Alaska's ongoing transformation. ... Read More
