Alaska Northbound Cruises
Sick of the usual pool, lemonade and sun hat routine you do every summer? Do you live in a warm state where a cruise to another hot destination isn't as appealing as staying indoors, cooling down with bags of ice? This summer you don't need to succumb to the ordinary or longingly stare outdoors from your air conditioned home, hoping for cooler days. Book your Alaska Northbound cruise now.

A northbound Alaska cruise may be the perfect addition to your summer (and your chance to escape the heat). Instead of flicking away beads of sweat, spend your summer spotting seals and polar bears as you glide through the calm waters of Alaska's Inside Passage, getting spectacular views of icy glaciers.
When you take a northbound Alaska cruise from Vancouver or Seattle you'll likely get to explore Alaska's capital, Juneau, as well as other popular Alaska cruise ports such as Ketchikan and Skagway.
As opposed to round-trip cruising, Northbound Alaska cruises are one-way, meaning you can extend your vacation in Alaska for as long as you'd like before flying back home to the heat. One-way northbound Alaska cruises also give you the opportunity to journey more into the interior of the state.
Get ready for an adventure like no other summer before - enjoy the treat of delicious food catered to you, go dog sledding, learn about Alaska's native inhabitants and the Alaskan Gold Rush era, observe phenomenal wildlife and breathtaking scenery, and we won't spoil the rest. You'll just have to book a northbound Alaska cruise and see for yourself!
The northbound Alaska cruise season is short, starting in May and ending in September, with 15 cruise lines making their way into the Last Frontier. From major cruise lines like Royal Caribbean, Celebrity and Holland America to luxury cruise lines like Oceania, Regent Seven Seas and Silversea, you can cultivate the northbound Alaska cruise vacation of your dreams. Simply book with us and we'll help you find the ideal northbound Alaska cruise for you.
