VOYAGE OF THE GLACIERS

Not many people have the opportunity to see as much of Alaska as they would like. That's why we reccomend the cruise with more of Alaska's top cruising attractions, more of what you came to Alaska to see. It's our 7-day Gulf of Alaska Voyage of the Glaciers cruise, spotlighting Alaska's #1 cruising attraction - Glacier Bay. Here actively calving glaciers stretch down from the ice-draped St. Elias and fairweather mountain ranges to meet the sheltered waters of the majestic fjords. Experience their majesty and power as icebergs thunder and crash into the sea around you.

The beauty of this top-rated itinerary is that it offers a second and equally remarkable glacier-viewing experience in College Fjord. Rarely visited by other cruise lines, college Fjord offers as many as six different glaciers in one glance and features up to 16 glaciers in one glorious, unforgettable day. Plus you can spot wildlife in Prince William Sound, view more mountains along the south central coast, and take in the stunning wilderness of the Kenai peninsula. Princess combines all of this with the rollicking, frontier-friendly ports of the Inside Passage. and we take you all the way across the Gulf of Alaska to Anchorage, via Seward, where many of our cruisetour itineraries begin. It's by far the best way to enter Alaska's Interior, and anything less sells short your glacier-viewing experience.
