What moment will you carry with you forever? Will it be the stillness of Tracy Arm Fjord or the resounding crack of ice breaking free from Sawyer Glacier and thundering into the sea? Perhaps it will be your time in Wrangell, where you can hike to the top of Mount Dewey, scoot along the Stikine River in a jet boat or catch salmon and halibut on a fishing excursion. Prince Rupert vies for your attention with a seaplane flight over lush rainforests, deep valleys, rugged mountain fjords and cascading waterfalls. And the Inside Passage presents an array of wildlife that unfolds like a theater backdrop from the deck of Regatta. For guests who travel with children, our Alaska Explorer Youth Program offers the opportunity for everyone to experience the excitement of exploring the Northwest Coast and Alaska in a meaningful, enriching way. Designed for age groups between 5 and 12, the program is supervised by experienced and enthusiastic youth counselors and include games, activities and Alaska-inspired special events.
