Alaska Star Princess

Alaska

Alaska represents the pinnacle of cruising destinations, bursting with formidable icebergs, epic glaciers and snow-capped mountains, plus an array of tranquil coasts, rivers and rainforests. The region’s famed vantage points the glacier-carved Tracy Arm fjord: where it’s possible to witness mighty pieces of ice break away and crash into the frozen, mist-shrouded waters.

Alaska’s landscapes teem with rare and endangered species, including polar and grizzly bears, bald eagles, nimble gray wolves, orcas, lynx and moose. Blue and humpback whales can also be seen gracefully surveying Alaska’s waters and spouting mighty fountains of water.

The benefits of experiencing the pristine wonders of Alaska by cruise are plentiful; primarily because they survey scenic delights in proximity unrivalled by other methods of travel. Furthermore, cruises offer opportunities to partake in diverse on-shore jaunts, including glacier dog-sledding, watching native dance performances, viewing Alaska’s plethora of art museums, dining and shopping the city.
