Cruise Lines Plying the Alaska Waters

 

You have lots of choices for your Alaska cruise.  Ships range from huge mega-ships with thousands aboard to small, intimate ships with fewer than 100 passengers. Obviously, your experience will be quite different. It is important then to select a ship that fits your lifestyle, budget and preferences. The small ships will provide an up close and personal view of Alaska and focus on the history, culture and ecology of the area. You will see things that it is simply not possible to see from the big ships. They are much more informal, adventuresome and limited in onboard entertainment and food choices.  The big ships provide and Alaska experience, but with all the trappings of a floating resort including casinos, Broadway style shows, discos, multiple dining options and onboard shopping.

Whichever style you prefer, select carefully so you get good value. The Alaska market is highly competitive and in some respects there are just too many choices, particularly when it comes to cruisetours.  Let our experienced, Certified Alaska Specialist help you find the trip thats right for you.
