Legendary Journeys and Adventures

A humpback whale surfaces suddenly into the sparkling air... a tidewater glacier calves into the sea... a majestic bald eagle soars silently in a cloudless sky... snow-clad mountains tower over deep blue rivers of ice... forested landscapes and glistening fjords of the 49th state reward with priceless treasures... and just beyond, the Yukon unfolds with its own wonders – where the Tombstone Mountains rise in jagged silhouette above golden tundra, and caribou roam freely across vast, untouched wilderness. Here, under the midnight sun or the ethereal glow of the aurora borealis, nature's grandeur knows no bounds.

Embark on an extraordinary journey through the rugged beauty of Alaska and the storied landscapes of the Yukon Territory on an adventure that takes you from the cosmopolitan charm of Vancouver to the historic heart of the Klondike Gold Rush in Dawson City. Experience the rich cultural tapestry of the Tr'ondëk Hwëch'in First Nations, delve into gold rush history at the Discovery Claim National Historic Site, and explore the engineering marvel of Dredge No. 4. Traverse the majestic Denali National Park, where you may encounter moose, caribou, and grizzly bears amidst breathtaking tundra landscapes. Visit the Husky Homestead to meet Iditarod champion Jeff King and his spirited sled dogs. Soar over glacier-carved valleys on a floatplane adventure, and unwind at a mountaintop dinner with panoramic views. Cruise through the awe-inspiring Inside Passage, witness the calving of Hubbard Glacier, and enjoy exclusive experiences like a private whale-watching cruise in Juneau and a rafting expedition through the Chilkat Bald Eagle Preserve. This meticulously crafted itinerary offers an immersive exploration of the natural wonders and rich heritage of Alaska and the Yukon. Read Less

Private whale-watching cruise

Day 12

The ultimate whale-watching experience off Alaskan shores...

Venture into the pristine coastal wilderness of Alaska in search of its most captivating marine residents. Aboard specialized whale-watching cruises, keep watch for the majestic humpback whale, whose elaborate breaching and tail-slapping displays have earned it the title "acrobat of the ocean." These migratory giants travel thousands of miles to feed in Alaska's nutrient-rich summer waters, surfacing every 10 to 15 minutes for air. But the waters hold more than whales – stay alert for the striking black-and-white patterns of orca pods, the stealthy movements of harbor seals, Steller sea lions, and the occasional black bear foraging along the shoreline. Overhead, bald eagles circle in wide arcs, while countless seabirds nest along rocky cliffs, completing this living portrait of Alaska's untamed coastal ecosystem.

Private flightseeing above Denali National Park

One of life's memorable experiences – flightseeing over Denali National Park, near North America's highest peak...

An experienced Alaska bush pilot who loves to share Alaska's most inaccessible and spectacularly-wild setting – up close – takes you on a flightseeing adventure around the southern side of Denali. Take in all possible views of the summit on a flight over the vast Alaska wilderness, untouched by modern man. View incredible glaciers, peaks and valleys soaring above open alpine tundra and glacier-fed, braided rivers – with a possibility of spotting cascading icefalls and wildlife such as moose, bear, swans and the occasional wolf or coyote.

Hotel Captain Cook

Night 1

"It's not just the little things, it's everything..."

With sweeping views of downtown Anchorage, Cook Inlet or the Chugach Mountains, Hotel Captain Cook is definitely the preferred address in Anchorage. The hotel was inducted into Historic Hotels of America, the official travel organization of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, lauded for preserving and maintaining its historic integrity, architecture and ambiance. Most notably, the hotel's private art collection celebrates the adventures of Captain James Cook – and along with the hotel's architecture itself, stained glass, paintings, woodwork and sculpture tell his story. The legendary sea captain and the hotel that bears his name share two great qualities: a love of nature and an indomitable Alaskan spirit.
