It might come as a shock to many to see the words Alaska and cruise in the same sentence, but in reality Alaska offers some of the most exciting cruise opportunities on planet earth. Unlike their counterparts in the Caribbean, Alaska cruise ships sail past a wide array of rugged scenery that beats the daylights out of spending hours on end on the open water.
When you embark on an Alaska cruise you’ll see wildlife ranging from whales to polar bears as well as several varieties of northern waterfowl. You’ll enjoy magnificent vistas of snow-capped mountains, massive stands of evergreen forests, glaciers and much, much more. If the ultimate in rugged outdoor beauty strikes your fancy, you’ll do yourself a huge favor by foregoing the warmer climes and sailing north!
