Alaska Cruise and Tours - THE best way to experience the marvelous Alaskan
wilderness!
If you are looking for the best way to experience the
wonders of Alaska, an Alaska cruise and tours is it! And Princess Cruise
Lines has one of the best - if not the best - cruise tours packages
available.
Princess Alaskan Cruises!
Alaskan cruises with Princess start from the ports in Los
Angeles, Seattle or Vancouver. The two former ports generally cruise the
inside passage to Alaska, and return south while still adjacent to the
Alaskan coast at British Columbia. From Vancouver, the Ultimate Voyage of
the Glaciers includes the inside passage, and then proceeds across the Gulf
of Alaska to College Fjord and on to Whittier, Alaska where a fantastic land
tour can begin!
Princess cruises to Alaska from Vancouver can therefore provide an even
better look at Alaskan glaciers. There are actually more glaciers in College
Fjord - which is beyond the limits of the U.S. starting port cruises - than
in Glacier Bay. College Fjord is visited by Princess cruises during the Gulf
of Alaska portion of your cruise.
Princess Alaska Tour begins!
From Whittier, your tour portion of the cruise-tour
begins. You will be taken by Princess' luxury rail service to one of their
inland lodges for further Alaskan exploration. The Princess glass topped
rail cars pick you up at the cruise terminal and transport you in style!
Their Alaskan Outfitters, (SM) will provide local host help and information
while on board the train as well as at their fabulous cruise-tour lodges.
These custom built lodges provide Princess Cruisers an up close and personal
experience of Alaska's interior wilderness beauty. Depending on the duration
of your tour and your itinerary, you will stay in one or more of the five
Princess lodges.
