About the event
Cruising around Iceland can be a fantastic way to explore the country's stunning landscapes, coastal areas, and unique culture. Here are some aspects to consider when planning a cruise to Alaska:
Choosing an Itinerary:
• Alaska cruises typically sail through the Inside Passage, visiting ports such as Juneau, Ketchikan, Skagway, and Sitka.
• Some itineraries also include Glacier Bay National Park, Hubbard Glacier, or Tracy Arm Fjord, providing opportunities to witness impressive glaciers.
• Consider whether you want a one-way (Northbound or Southbound) or round-trip cruise.
Best Time to Cruise:
• The Alaska cruise season generally runs from May to September.
• June, July, and August are the peak months with milder weather, longer days, and optimal wildlife viewing opportunities.
Wildlife Viewing:
• Alaska is known for its diverse wildlife, including bears, whales, eagles, seals, and more.
• Consider excursions such as whale watching tours, bear viewing trips, and visits to wildlife sanctuaries.
Before booking a cruise, check the specific itinerary, the included excursions, and the time spent at each port to ensure it aligns with your preferences and interests.
