All you need to know about Canada and Alaska Cruise

Alaska Cruises from Vancouver

For most travellers, an Alaska cruise begins long before the ship sets sail. British Columbia's stunning coastal city, Vancouver, is the primary departure point for Inside Passage cruises, and it's one of the most naturally beautiful embarkation cities in the world. Arriving a day or two early isn't just practical – it's an opportunity in itself. From the iconic waterfront of Canada Place, where many cruise ships berth, to the towering rainforest trails of Stanley Park and the vibrant dining scene of Gastown, Vancouver rewards those who take their time.

The city also serves as an ideal introduction to the dramatic Pacific Northwest landscape that defines the entire Alaska cruise experience. Snow-capped mountains frame the skyline, the Pacific Ocean stretches to the horizon, and the relaxed, cosmopolitan atmosphere makes it easy to settle into holiday mode before you even board.

Cruising the Inside Passage

The Alaska Inside Passage is home to some of the most spectacular scenery on earth. Glacier Bay National Park – a UNESCO World Heritage Site – delivers unforgettable views of calving tidewater glaciers. Further north, the mighty Hubbard Glacier is the longest tidewater glacier in North America, its vast six-mile-wide ice face is one of the most photographed sights on any Alaska cruise itinerary.

Ashore, Juneau offers a unique blend of wilderness and culture – the Mendenhall Glacier, whale watching, and scenic hiking trails are all within easy reach of the harbour. And no Alaska cruise is complete without a stop in Skagway, where the spirit of the Klondike Gold Rush lives on through its preserved frontier streets and the legendary White Pass & Yukon Route railway.

Alaska Wildlife

A Canada and Alaska cruise offers some of the finest wildlife viewing on the planet, and the waters of the Inside Passage are extraordinarily rich. Humpback whales breach alongside the ship, orcas glide through glacial fjords, and Steller sea lions haul out on rocky outcrops as you sail past. Dolphins and harbour porpoises are frequent companions, while spotting a pod of orcas in the wild is an experience few travellers ever forget.

On land and along the shoreline, Alaska’s wildlife is equally impressive. Brown bears fish for salmon in coastal rivers, bald eagles soar overhead, mountain goats cling to cliffsides, and moose wade through forest waterways — all part of this remarkable natural landscape.
Wildlife sightings vary by season, but whenever you travel, Alaska has a way of delivering moments that truly stop you in your tracks.

Why Choose a Canada and Alaska Cruise

Few itineraries in the world can match the sheer variety on offer: cosmopolitan cities, ancient rainforests, calving glaciers, breaching whales, and frontier towns steeped in Gold Rush history, all woven together into a single, seamless voyage. For travellers who want to experience true wilderness without sacrificing comfort, an Alaska cruise from Canada strikes the perfect balance – extraordinary nature by day, exceptional dining and relaxation on board by night.

What sets this journey apart from other cruise destinations is the sense of scale and remoteness. The Alaska Inside Passage winds through one of the last great wildernesses on earth, and the contrast with vibrant, welcoming cities like Vancouver and Victoria makes the experience all the richer.

Combine the Canadian Rockies with Alaska cruise

For the ultimate Canadian adventure, many travellers choose to pair their cruise holiday with a journey through the Canadian Rockies. With Vancouver as the natural link between both experiences, it's easy to extend your trip with a rail journey through some of North America's most iconic mountain scenery. The legendary Rocky Mountaineer train is the finest way to do it, winding through towering peaks, dramatic river canyons, and glacier-fed valleys in daylight hours so you never miss a moment. Explore our Alaska Cruise and Rocky Mountaineer packages to find the perfect itinerary combining the best of the Rockies and the Last Frontier.

Mr Trigwell - Client

Wonderful intelligent, knowledgeable of region, quick friendly response. 

Cheryl was great to deal with, she knew the area and her subject (Alaska and the Rockies) and quickly worked out what we wanted in a tailor made tour. We received a beautifully presented itinerary and after a couple of adjustments we were good to go. The back office has been equally efficient and we received all the relevant confirmations within a day or two
