Alaska: Holland America

Alaskan Explorer Cruises
Mother Nature did some of her best work in Alaska and the Yukon.
Mountains you have to see to believe. Miles and miles without a
freeway, neighborhood or fence. Rivers that are wilder. Valleys that
are deeper. Powerful forces that are still shaping the land. With
Holland America, this is the Great Land you are coming to see.
Holland America offers more choices, more attractions, and
the best value for your vacation in Alaska and the Yukon. Take your
time, and see it all.
If it's a one-week vacation you're seeking, a Holland America cruise
is the perfect choice. Incredible scenery, glaciers, whales,
fishing, native culture, and of course, shopping! Join us for a
Glacier Bay, Tracy Arm Inside Passage Cruise, roundtrip from
Vancouver; an Alaskan Explorer Cruise, roundtrip from Seattle, or a
Glacier Discovery Cruise between Vancouver and Seward, Alaska.
You'll sail with the finest premium fleet in Alaska, with
award-winning five-star service, spacious staterooms, sumptuous
dining and first-rate entertainment.
Onboard for Alaska
Step on board one of Holland America’s award winning vessels sailing
from Vancouver and Seattle. See
breathtaking Glacier Bay National Park. From the Pacific Northwest
into an endless horizon of forested islands and sheltering mountain
peaks to the glaciers of Ketchikan, Juneau and beyond, you'll return
with a new collection of memories and stories.
Features
* Top itinerary for leisurely days at sea to relax and enjoy
stunning scenery.
* Onboard naturalists give lectures and scout for wildlife from the
railing.
* Marvel at the creaking, groaning, calving ice castles of Hubbard
Glacier.
* We carry far fewer guests than other ships in our class, allowing
for more quiet corners and unfettered views.
Glacier Discovery
After you've traveled through the frontier towns, sheltered
waterways and calving glaciers of the Inside Passage, cruise on into
the Gulf of Alaska with its snowcapped giants and majestic rivers of
ice. At Sitka, you'll experience Russia-in-America and near Seward
you'll be overcome with the spectacle of the Kenai Peninsula fjords.
Glacier Discovery cruises feature all of Alaska's top cruising
attractions.
Witness breathtaking light shows as you watch the sun set over some
of the continent's tallest peaks. An onboard naturalist interprets
the view from deck and points out wildlife. We carry far fewer
guests than other ships in our class, allowing for more quiet
corners and unfettered views.
Inside Passage
Journey deep into one of nature's most isolated monuments accessible
only by sea and air and encounter the magnificence of the Ice Age as
you slowly glide through the Inside Passage. See Tracy Arm and the
twin Sawyer Glaciers. Kayak in Ketchikan, dogsled in Skagway and
ride a helicopter for an overhead view of Juneau's four glaciers.
A must for first-time visitors to Alaska that spotlights the
complete Inside Passage experience. Guaranteed views of
sky-splitting peaks, glaciers and vast wilderness.
