Day 2
Cruising Alaska's Inside Passage, United States
Enjoy 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. Unlike other cruises, which pass through at night, you'll be able to view the sublime scenery in all its glory during the day. 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 orcas. ... Read More

Day 3
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, harbor seals, orcas, and Dall's porpoises. Skyward, 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 toward Wrangell. Only a mile outside of town, Petroglyph Beach is where you'll see ancient rock carvings among the sand. Visit the local museum to learn more about Wrangell's fascinating past. Now part of the United States, it was once governed by Britain, Russia, and the Lingit people. Cross to Shakes Island, where the Chief Shakes Tribal House and totem poles tell the story of the Indigenous Lingit people. 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 rainforest. ... Read More
Take in Sitka's views and a unique 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 Lingit 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 Lingit totem poles at Sitka National Historical Park and enjoy a walking trail through the forest to the ocean. ... Read More
Embrace the thrill of wild Alaska. Today is another day of exploration as we sail into Icy Strait and take a closer look at some of the islands. Possible destinations to explore include George Island, the Inian Islands, and Idaho Inlet, but-as always-we will gauge the weather conditions and wildlife spotting opportunities to decide on the best location. Using our expedition boats, we may get close to some of the rocky shores here, and it's possible we may land and take a nature walk. The coast in this region grows more rugged the closer we get to the open sea, and there are rocky pinnacles and sea caves galore. Keep an eye out for whales, as well as sea lions, orcas, and bald eagles. ... Read More

Day 7
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-regularly calve into this bay. If conditions allow, we'll explore in our small expedition boats or by kayak, immersing in the remarkable beauty of this icy landscape. Wildlife abounds in the Gulf of Alaska, offering unrivaled photography opportunities. Humpback whales, orcas, Steller sea lions, sea otters, and harbor seals lazing on floating chunks of ice are often seen in these waters. ... Read More

Day 8
Cruising the Gulf of Alaska, United States
A day of relaxation and birdwatching at sea. Your cruise continues across the Gulf of Alaska. It's the ideal time to enjoy onboard facilities such as the infinity pool, hot tubs, and sauna. Go for a run, hit the gym, or enjoy a massage in the spa. In the Science Center, 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. The Laysan and black-footed albatross are often sighted, but the short-tailed albatross is harder to spot. ... Read More
Sunday - Aug 2, 2026
Day 9
Kodiak, United States
Explore the home of the Alutiiq people. Kodiak Island got its nickname, the "Emerald Isle", due to its spruce forests and grasslands, and it's the second-largest island in the US. The island's most famous inhabitants are Kodiak brown bears. Around 3,500 of them live in the Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge, which covers two thirds of the island. We'll search for these powerful creatures in their natural habitat, marveling at their size and grace from the safety of our small expedition boat. This perspective offers a rare glimpse into the lives of these bears against the backdrop of Alaska's breathtakingly rugged landscape. ... Read More
Monday - Aug 3, 2026
Day 10
Geographic Harbor, United States
Spot brown bears in Katmai National Park. Your adventure continues in the four-million-acre Katmai National Park, which has over a dozen active volcanoes. Katmai is also home to more than 2,000 protected brown bears-the largest concentration in the world. Accompanied by an experienced bear guard, we'll safely scout for them from the deck or in our small expedition boats. They might be foraging for berries, digging for clams, or catching fish in the stream. Depending on conditions, we might visit either Geographic Harbor, Kinak Bay, or Kukak Bay. ... Read More
Tuesday - Aug 4, 2026
Day 11
Coastal Navigation, United States
Explore rugged scenery in an untamed wilderness. The Alaska Peninsula is an untamed wilderness and a haven for wildlife. The region is characterized by its raw coastal landscapes, towering mountains, and secluded bays. Join your Expedition Team for close exploration of hidden bays and inlets along the shoreline, offering the opportunity to scout for bears, bald eagles, and marine species like sea otters and humpback whales. Learn about the geological evolution of the region and appreciate how natural forces have sculpted the unique topography around you. ... Read More
Wednesday - Aug 5, 2026
Day 12
Unga Island, United States
Experience a deserted Alaskan town. Wild and deserted, Unga Village is an abandoned yet picturesque settlement on the southern end of Unga Island. It was settled by Unangax 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. A carpet of pink lousewort, fireweed, and other wildflowers surrounds 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
Thursday - Aug 6, 2026
Day 13
Dutch Harbor, United States
Learn the fascinating history of America's biggest fishing port. America's largest fishing port, Dutch Harbor, is a fascinating place to visit. As we sail toward it you may see Mount Makushin, an occasionally steaming volcano that reaches almost 6,000 feet. You'll learn about the local Indigenous Unangan people at the Museum of the Aleutians here. 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
Friday - Aug 7, 2026
Day 14
Coastal Navigation, United States
Relax and reflect as we cruise along the coast. Part of being on an expedition cruise is taking time to connect with the sights and sounds of the world around you. A day at sea lets you do just that. Sit back and take in the panoramic views from the Explorer Lounge & Bar, from the infinity pool, or from the outdoor hot tubs. Keep scanning the shores, seas, and skies for puffins, auklets, and murrelets, especially closer to the coast. If you're lucky, you might glimpse the red-legged kittiwake, which is only found in this part of the world. You'll learn more about the region's geography, climate, and birdlife from the Expedition Team in the Science Center. ... Read More
Saturday - Aug 8, 2026
Day 15
St Paul Island, United States
Look out for wildlife on the largest of the Pribilof Islands. The windswept island of St. Paul is home to the largest Unangan community in the US, numbering around 480. You can visit the historical remains of barabaras here-traditional dwellings built halfway underground to protect against the sea winds. Saint Paul is also designated an Important Bird Area, and around 300 species of migrating birds use it as a resting point. Scan for horned and tufted puffins, the Pribilof sandpiper, and the rare red-legged kittiwake. On the shore, you may find northern fur seals waddling and playing-half the world's population of these charming animals lives on these islands. ... Read More
Sunday - Aug 9, 2026
Day 16
St Matthew Island, United States
Experience this wild, remote, and isolated island. Part of the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge and 200 miles from the nearest village, St. Matthew Island is wild, remote, and isolated. You'll see traces of abandoned buildings between black-sand beaches and wildflower-dotted tundra. A few hardy souls have tried-and failed-to make a home here. Today, the only inhabitants are birds, including thousands of puffins, murres, and cormorants. On our nature landing, if we're lucky, we'll see the rare McKay's bunting, which breeds almost exclusively here-and listen out for the sound of the singing vole, which was named after its unusual warning cry. ... Read More
Watch for wildlife and relax at sea. As we cruise the Bering Sea, you'll have Russia to the west and the United States to the east. Natural wonders abound here, so keep an eye out for humpback whales, and seabirds wheeling through the skies. This is your last full day at sea, so relax and enjoy your time on board. The Expedition Team will recap the highlights of your Alaskan adventure, and you can continue your journey of discovery in the Science Center. ... Read More

Day 17
Air Travel
Seattle, United States
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
End your adventure in the Emerald City. Your Alaskan adventure comes to an end in Seattle. If you have time before your onward journey, why not head to the Seattle Aquarium to see sea otters and a giant Pacific octopus?

For a feast of the senses, visit the famous Pike Place Market. Operating for over a century, this lively farmer's market boasts everything from buskers and bars to salmon-throwing fishmongers!
