Alaska is considered the last "wild frontier" in North America - an unspoiled land with brilliant glaciers, thick forests, high mountains and very rich wildlife. Top cruise packages to Alaska allow tourists to enjoy extraordinary vacations filled with adventures and tours to the most interesting attractions! There are available combined travel packages to Alaska that feature accommodation on luxury ships, day trips to towns on the shores, visits to glaciers, and many others.
Passengers who take one-week Alaskan cruises embark usually in Seattle or Vancouver. Many ships go to the Inside Passage and back. Holiday makers who choose one-way sailing deals board also in Seattle and Vancouver and debark in Seward or Whittier. From there they take a bus, train or car and visit different parts of the state before to fly back to home from Anchorage or Fairbanks.

Top seven-day Alaskan cruise packages follow typically a route along the Inside Passage with visits to the Glacier Bay National Park or Hubbard Glacier. There are also travel packages that include land tours, a few days of fishing or sightseeing tours in Denali National Park.
Due to the harsh climate in this part of North America cruises to Alaska are available strictly between early May and mid-September, while June, July and August are the best months for adventure vacations and land trips in this state.
