Alaska
Alaska, whilst part of the USA, is a unique destination, with a mind and feel of its own. Towering cliffs of glacial ice, tens of thousands of years old, snow-capped mountains, thickly forested slopes and deep fjords, make this a distinctly different experience. Many areas provide havens for wildlife – bald eagles, Humpback, Beluga or Orca whales and seals are frequently spotted together with bears and other land and water based creatures. Re-discover the Goldrush era, or simply marvel at the determination of the hardy souls that first settled this wondrous land. Whatever your choice of travel whatever the boundaries of your comfort zone, call our experts for advice and guidance.
Cruising the waters of the Inside Passage, Prince William Sound and the Bering Sea are also popular options. Cruise West are firm favourites for small ship cruising – no glitz and glamour here.
