Due to the more intimate size of Oceania’s ships you will be transported to fabulous ports that are off-the-beaten-path. Some of these, inaccessible to larger vessels, include Haines, Kodiak, Nanaimo, Prince Rupert and Wrangell.
Voyages include up to nine ports of call and most will visit breathtaking Hubbard Glacier, in addition, some will also feature College Fjord. Oceania offers luxury cruising at its best and coupled with Alaska, you’ve got the ideal vacation. Sailing to this magical destination provides the opportunity to enjoy many thrilling activities. Feel the freedom of kayaking in pristine waters, go hiking on a spectacular mountain, traverse Icy Strait Point and listen for the call of humpback whales.

Explore More & Longer
With Oceania’s expanded itineraries, you’ll have the opportunity to explore what matters to you, whether that is nature, culture, cuisine or more. Your ship will arrive at your destination early in the morning and typically will depart at 6pm or later – sometimes as late as 11 pm, affording you more time for in-depth exposure.
Wondrous Wildlife
Animal lovers will be in their glory on an Alaska cruise. Majestic bears, eagles, whales and more call this great land home. You’ll always remember the moment you caught a glimpse of a bear catching a salmon or walking with her cubs, a bald eagle perched high in the treetops or soaring past your private balcony, a humpback whale or, if you’re really fortunate, a pod surfacing from the depths.
Alaska Explorer Youth Program
Bring the entire family, because children will love Alaska as much as adults. Oceania’s special program enables everyone a perfect opportunity to explore the exciting Northwest and Alaska in a meaningful, entertaining and enriching way. Designed for age groups between five and 12, the program is supervised by experienced youth counselors. Fun games, activities, unique adventures and Alaska-inspired special events will create wonderful memories for the children.
Unique Experiences
Adventure cruisers will have a host of incredible offerings! Explore majestic Mendenhall Glacier on foot and by helicopter. Imagine flightseeing over indigo blue crevasses, ice spires, ice falls and more in a helicopter. Upon landing, take a guided trek along the glacier’s surface.
Rather than watching from your television at home, how does crabbing in the Bering Sea sound? Indulge in Russian tea-time. Rather than familiar English traditions such as scones and finger sandwiches, nibble on Russian teacakes, borscht and pirozhkis – a delicious stuffed pastry. This delicious treat is accompanied by the local Balalaika Players, playing regional music.
Paddle the protected waters around Port Fredrick as you kayak along Icy Strait Point. Glide through the coves and bays in this pristine area along with a guide. Highlighting this exciting adventure may be appearances by the local wildlife. Consider glimpsing humpback whale tail fins or adorable otters playing nearby. If this isn’t thrilling enough, consider the local orcas, sea lions, seals and porpoises may pass by to check you out.
Let Oceania take you in luxurious comfort to breathtaking Alaska.
