Stunning glaciers, amazing wildlife and indigenous culture


Alaska is often described as “the last frontier”, and this is a destination for the truly adventurous. Here you’ll have the opportunity to marvel at the myriad of dramatic landscapes that characterise this northerly part of the world, from glaciers and mountains to beautiful alpine flowers and crystal clear lakes. 

Avid wildlife lovers might be lucky enough to spot grizzly bear, moose, wolverines or foxes in their native habitat. In Ketchikan you can learn about the history and culture of the indigenous people who call Alaska home, as well as the history of other groups of people who migrated to this region and contribute to its rich culture - Norwegian fisherman, Asian traders and English entrepreneurs. Cruising through the National Parks gives you a sense of scale and awe that will make you feel truly humble.
