Alaska Holidays
A new adventure every day
Epic landscapes as far as the eye can see, crystal clear glacier filled lakes and for wildlife lovers you will be in paradise. Few other places in the world will take your breath away and it is here eagerly waiting to be explored!
Alaska is the largest state in the US but one of the less populated and unspoiled. Expect to see a vast wilderness of snow-capped mountains, coastal rainforests and majestic glaciers that feed the piercing blue lakes. Bears, wolves, moose, bison and whales are just a few of the incredible creatures you could witness on your visit to this enormous state and whether you enjoy hiking, biking, flying or cruising there is so much adventure waiting for you.
For an Alaska holiday like no other, book onto our Alaskan Highlights small group tour to spot Grizzly Bears in Denali National Park, hike to Exit Glacier and experience over a week of wildlife viewing opportunities.
Enjoy cruising? Start your holiday in Seattle or Vancouver and explore either of these cosmopolitan cities before journeying up the inside passage to Alaska.
