Few people would argue with the fact that if you’ve made the decision to take an Alaskan cruise, you’re going to have a fantastic time. Alaska is not only filled with breathtaking scenery, it’s also a place where there are endless opportunities for activities.
While cruises are a great way to see the awe-inspiring shores from Vancover to Whittier, an Alaska Cruise Tour gives travelers the opportunity to travel deeper into The Last Frontier.
There are several cruise tour options that you can choose from. Some take place before your cruise, or afterwards. At the beginning of your land tour portion, you will meet with your experienced tour guide. Depending on the cruise tour you select, you will explore places such as Denali National Park & Fairbanks.
You may choose to board the ultra-luxurious McKinley Explorer train to Denali. In the Denali National Park, you’ll have the freedom to explore the park on your own. Or take a plane over the Great One, Mt. McKinley, for a breathtaking, once in a lifetime view of Alaska. Other excursions may include fly fishing or playing nine holes surrounded by unbelievable views of rugged landscape at Black Diamond Golf Course.
On some tours, you can re-board the explorer and head for Fairbanks, also known as Alaska’s Golden Heart City. Another great option in Fairbanks would be to go on an Arctic Circle Air Adventure where you’ll soar above the Yukon River and Yukon Flats National Wildlife Refuge. Or if you’d prefer to stay on land, you can see a portion of the Alaska Pipeline in a luxury motor coach.
On a Yukon tour, In Dawson City, you can travel back to the Gold Rush era as this city played host to hopeful prospectors during the 1800s. If you so choose, hop in a Jeep for a 60-mile tour through pristine valleys during a Gold Fields Jeep Tour. Another option you may consider would be to book a spot in the in the Klondike River Float Trip excursion, where you’ll gently drift down the Klondike River into downtown Dawson City.
Your tour may include Whitehorse, a city stampeders frequented before they attempted to navigate the Whitehorse Rapids en route to the Klondike region. During your time here, go on on a Miles Canyon Nature Hike or a tour of the Whitehorse City Highlights and Yukon Wildlife Preserve.
