Some cruises also offer scenic views of Alaska’s most dramatic glaciers. Travel the 26-mile fjord from Tracy Arm to the Twin Sawyer Glaciers. The face of the South Sawyer Glacier extends more than a half mile. You’ll experience mountain peaks, harbor seals and other wildlife and waterfalls galore.

Ninety miles down the Dempster Highway from Dawson City in the heart of the Yukon, you will find an untamed wilderness called Tombstone. This area is known for it's granite peaks, alpine lakes, and extensive tundra. This national park receives very few visitors; only those on cruisetours from Holland America Line. You’ll explore along the Dempster Highway, passing over the Tintina Trench, a fault line straddling Alaska and the Yukon. Hiking and motor coach tours will be the main excursions in this vast land.

Advancing faster than any other glacier on the continent, Hubbard Glacier is also one of the most massive. This wall of ice begins on the slopes of Mt. Logan 76 miles away (in the St. Elias Mountain Range) and spreads 40 miles wide. When you see the glacier in Disenchantment Bay, it will measure an amazing 40 stories high and 5 miles wide. Hubbard Glacier is one of the main attractions at Wrangell-St. Elias National Park, the largest national park in North America. As you cruise, Alaska’s most mountainous coastline will unfold into 150-miles of peaks, including Mt. Logan and Mt. St. Elias, the second and third-largest mountains in North America.

You'll find the Gates of the Arctic National Park, Alaska's northernmost park in the state's Brooks Range, that lies just north of and within the Arctic Circle. The park features six rivers and a large amount of wildlife. The highlight is the Arctic Circle sign. Great for photographs and to include with your official, framed Arctic Circle Club Certificate.
