Alaska is a pristine wilderness with natural wonders that were meant to be explored without time restraints. Embark on a 10-, 11- or 12-night voyage and witness iconic wildlife, from whales to grizzlies to Bald Eagles, of frontier towns like Wrangell and Prince Rupert. Experience the pioneer culture of Hoonah and Homer, as well as the legacy of the gold rush from Astoria to Victoria.
HOMER, ALASKA —The Beauty of the Frontier
This charming little town is known for its halibut fishing and for having quite an artistic flair. In the heart of Homer, find boutiques that offer locally made pottery, jewelry and paintings, and a little further afield in Halibut Cove also find talented local artists and lovely galleries. Be sure to spend some time at the Pratt Museum, a natural history museum that focuses on marine life in Kachemak Bay. There you can learn more about the Exxon Valdez oil spill through a comprehensive exhibit. Top off your day with a guided walk through the tide pools of the Kachemak Bay Research Reserve for an immersive learning experience.
VICTORIA, CANADA — Lovely & Lavish
Victoria proudly displays its British heritage, from the lavish Craigdarroch Castle, built in the late 1800s for a Scottish coal baron, to the Marine Museum of British Columbia celebrating British seafarers. Yet what will catch your eye are the well-manicured lawns and impressive displays of gardens and hanging baskets adorning the streets, which contribute to why Victoria is nicknamed the "City of Gardens". Your time here would not be complete without a visit to the Butchart Gardens, which is a true visual delight. This botanical masterpiece changes frequently as the Gardens staff continually alters the grounds with the seasons.

PRINCE RUPERT, CANADA — For Wildlife Seekers
The north coast of Prince Rupert is home to a wide variety of wildlife, including whales and sea lions. Coastal birds like herons and eagles make these rich waters and coastline their preferred permanent home. Be sure to look up to catch Bald Eagles that soar across the bay’s sky and spot their large stick nests atop the trees. This pristine region is also home to families of grizzlies. The best way to learn about these imposing animals is to observe them in their natural habitat. Journey to the Khutzeymateen Sanctuary, affectionately called the Valley of the Grizzly, where you may get a glimpse of this uniquely large population from boats offshore.
