 All
cruise lines, Princess
included, sail the Inside Passage, but this is where the real Alaska just begins. Beyond
lie wonders most cruise passengers never get to see. That's why we pioneered the Gulf of
Alaska voyage; to take you beyond the Inside Passage, past the mighty mountains of
Wrangell-St. Elias, into College Fjord's magnificent glacier landscape, along the
breathtaking Kenai Peninsula and all the way to Anchorage. Discover Mt.
McKinley; the highest mountain in the United States; Fairbanks, of Klondike gold rush
fame, the perfect place to begin or end your Denali Park experience aboard the Midnight
Sun Express; the Kenai Peninsula, a sportsman's paradise; Kodiak Island, the home of the
legendary Kodiak Bear; and Prudhoe Bay, across the Arctic Circle.
Within the boundaries of a state roughly as big as
California, Arizona, Nevada, Oregon and Washington combined, there are as many as 100,000
glaciers and three million lakes; and places so remote the animals outnumber the people.
This is the backdrop against which your adventure with Princess will unfold. So come to
the Last Frontier with the cruise line that put Alaska on the map. With six ships, seven
cruise itineraries, 101 departures and 63 cruise tour options, there's enough variety to
keep you coming back again and again.
 If you're coming to Alaska to see wildlife, make
sure you don't miss out on any of the best wildlife-viewing opportunities. Enjoy the
natural beauty of the Inside Passage but also be sure to go beyond and experience the
large concentrations of mammal and bird species in Prince William Sound, available only on
a Gulf of Alaska cruise.
Then continue your adventure by
land on a Heart of Alaska cruise tour. This opens up a whole new world of possibilities as
you journey through the wilderness home of Alaska's renowned land mammals. The photographs
you capture of moose, mountain goats, caribou, bison, musk oxen or bear just may be your
most reassured vacation souvenirs.
"While aboard ship, keep an eye out for gray and
humpback whales. You may also see spot porpoise, sea otters, sea lions and killer
whales."
