  • Sitka, United States
Once the capital of Russian America, Sitka remains a place where Alaska's layered history is easy to see and feel.

At Sitka National Historical Park, walk forested trails lined with Tlingit totem poles marking the site of the 1804 Battle of Sitka. Visit the Alaska Raptor Center to observe rehabilitated bald eagles and learn about ongoing wildlife conservation. The Historical Sitka exploration highlights landmarks like St. Michael's Cathedral and local museums, while the Fortress of the Bear offers a close look at rescued brown bears in a natural habitat unique to this part of Southeast Alaska. ...

Endicott Arm, United States
  • Endicott Arm, United States
  • Cruising Dawes Glacier, United States
Journey through Endicott Arm, a fjord formed by ancient glacial movement and defined by granite cliffs that rise steeply from the water's edge. As the ship travels deeper into the channel, narrow streams tumble from the cliffs, and harbor seals rest on drifting ice. Humpback whales and bald eagles are often seen nearby, drawn by the nutrient-rich waters of the fjord. At the far end, Dawes Glacier comes into view-a massive tidewater glacier that descends from the Stikine Icefield. When ice breaks free and falls into the sea, the sound rolls through the valley, a vivid reminder of Alaska's ongoing transformation. ...

As you cruise through Misty Fjords, the sense of scale is immediate and unforgettable.

From the comfort of the ship, admire the massive granite cliffs rising from reflective waters, their upper reaches often veiled in mist. Lush rainforest blankets the shoreline, dominated by spruce and hemlock, while seals, whales, and seabirds can be spotted along the route. Accessible primarily by boat or floatplane, Misty Fjords remains quiet and remote, an impressive showcase of the region's raw geology and thriving natural habitats. ...
