Cruising Alaska's Inside Passage, United States
See sublime scenery as we sail the Inside Passage. The Inside Passage coastal route takes us through the great North American Pacific Fjordland, a protected stretch of water over 930 miles long. Our smaller expedition ship allows us to reach areas that larger vessels can't, meaning you'll get to explore lesser-traveled channels with breathtaking scenery. Keep your cameras and binoculars at the ready to catch sight of whales, including humpback, fin, minke, and perhaps even orca. ... Read More

Misty Fjord, Alaska, United States
Revel in a wilderness where wildlife thrives. Part of the Tongass National Forest, Misty Fjords is a pristine wilderness of evergreens, waterfalls, and snowcapped peaks. The revered naturalist writer John Muir described the area as one of the most beautiful places he'd ever seen. Weather permitting, you'll join the Expedition Team to tour Misty Fjords in the small expedition boats or take kayaks out. Misty Fjords is rich in wildlife. You'll scan for mountain goats, black and brown bears, and moose as you explore. The waters are home to Pacific salmon, otters, Steller sea lions, harbour seals, orcas, and Dall's porpoises. Skywards, you might spot herons and bald eagles. ... Read More

Day 4
Wrangell, United States
Visit one of Alaska's oldest harbor towns. We continue cruising the Alaskan islands towards Wrangell. The traditional homeland of the Lingit people for 8,000 years, Wrangell has in the past two centuries come under the control of Russia, then Britain, and is now part of the US. Visit the local museum to learn more about Wrangell's fascinating past. Cross over to Shakes Island, where the Chief Shakes Tribal House and totem poles tell the story of the Indigenous Lingit people. Only one mile out of town, you'll find Petroglyph Beach, which has ancient carvings etched into the large rocks along the shore. Created by the Lingit people, they are believed to be over 1,000 years old. Hikers will enjoy the nature trails, surrounded by alluring scenery at the mouth of Stikine River, and the foot of Mount Dewey at the edge of the temperate rainforest. ... Read More
Take in Sitka's views and mix of cultures. Surrounded by Tongass National Forest, Sitka is only accessible by sea or air. Get out on deck for stunning views of the Sisters Mountains and Mount Edgecumbe volcano. Inhabited by the Tlingit people for 10,000 years, the town was settled by Russian explorers around the turn of the 19th century before being sold to the United States after Russia lost the Crimean War. Today, Sitka has roots in all three cultures. A visit to the Russian Orthodox cathedral and Russian Bishop's House is recommended. Admire ornate Haida and Tlingit totem poles at Sitka National Historical Park and enjoy a walking trail through the forest to the ocean. ... Read More

Day 6
Icy Bay, United States
Spot wildlife in these glacier-fed waters. Today is an exploration day in Icy Bay. Three glaciers - Guyot, Yahtse, and Tyndall - each feed ice into the bay's waters to give it its name. If conditions allow, you'll explore in our small expedition boats or by kayak, immersing you in the remarkable beauty of this icy landscape. From Icy Bay, you can admire striking, jagged Mount St Elias. Known for its steep vertical relief, it is the second-tallest peak in the United States and Canada at over 18,000 feet. In the Gulf of Alaska, we'll scout for humpback whales, orcas, sea otters, and harbor seals which are often seen in these waters. ... Read More

In the Science Centre, the Expedition Team invite you to join lectures about subjects such as Alaska's wildlife, geology, glaciology, history, and culture. Relax in the Explorer Lounge & Bar and share a drink with your fellow guests, or just sit back and enjoy the view. See if you can spot all three species of North Pacific albatross.

Day 11
Unga Island, United States
Wild and deserted, Unga Village is an abandoned yet fascinating settlement on the southern end of Unga Island. It was settled by the Unangan in 1833 but was abandoned in 1969 as subsistence fishing proved insufficient to support living here. Today, the few wooden buildings that remain are the only evidence that people once lived here. Pink lousewort, fireweed, and other wildflowers surround the abandoned shacks as nature has gradually taken over. Experience the eerie beauty of this place during a nature landing with the small expedition boats. ... Read More

Day 12
Dutch Harbor, United States
The largest fishing port in the US, Dutch Harbor is a fascinating place to visit. As we sail towards it you may see Mount Makushin, a sometimes-steaming volcano reaching almost 6,000 feet. Here, you'll learn about the local Indigenous Unangan people at the Museum of the Aleutians. Visit the Russian Orthodox Cathedral, or tour the WWII museum commemorating the battle that took place here in 1942. Scout for bald eagles and puffins. Foxes, lemmings, and wild horses thrive on land, while whales, sea lions, and porpoises command the waters. Dutch Harbor was the filming location of the reality television series The Deadliest Catch, which follows crab fishermen at work under extreme conditions. ... Read More

Day 13
Cruising the Bering Sea
Discover wild nature and remote communities. Over the next four days, we'll head across the Bering Sea towards Nome. You'll have two exploration days and two days at sea. For the exploration days, your captain will choose the best location based on the conditions at the time. Possible destinations include the rugged island of St Paul, home to the largest Unangan community in the US. It's also an Important Bird Area, with species such as the Pribilof sandpiper and tufted puffin nesting here. We might also explore wild St. Matthew Island where abandoned buildings lie between black-sand beaches and wildflower-dotted tundra. You may even spot the rare McKay's buntings which breed and nest exclusively on this island. During the sea days, look out for puffins, auklets, and murrelets, especially closer to the coast. If you're lucky, you might glimpse the red-legged kittiwake, only found in this part of the world. Enjoy panoramic views from our Explorer Lounge & Bar, the infinity pool, or the outdoor hot tubs. Or learn more about the region's geography, climate and birdlife from the Expedition Team in the Science Centre. ... Read More
Learn about Nome's golden past. Prospectors first came to Nome in 1898, and people still hunt for gold here today. You'll see evidence of the Gold Rush all around, including abandoned dredges, turn-of-the-century steam engines, and old railroad tracks, lending the town a unique atmosphere. Nome was the end point of three of Roald Amundsen's great polar expeditions, including an attempt to reach the North Pole by air in 1926. Naturally, Nome is a fitting place to bid farewell to our own MS Roald Amundsen before flying back to Seattle, where we'll enjoy an overnight stay. ... Read More
